    My form was submitted with no email address, only a name; thus the subscriber was not added to my list (in MailChimp) and my campaign cannot be sent to the subscriber.
    How do I require fields be completed so I can capture the information I need from subscribers? What are the steps?
    The articles I looked at when searching for an answer were confusing and didn’t seem to have any instructions.
    I’m using WordPress.

  • Hello @jadenemayla,

    Most form tags can be set as required. In the case of mail field, CF7 provides optional and required form tags:

    This is a form tag to render an optional mail field:
    [email your-email placeholder "[email protected]"]

    This is a form tag to render a required mail field:
    [email* your-email placeholder "[email protected]"]

    Please note this last one has an asterisk (*) next to the field type. This is the syntax common to all other fields that allow you to add the required attribute.

    You can read How tags work in order to learn more.

    Best regards,
    Yordan.
