Notification Issues Updated

Hi, this is not clear at all on how to edit emails/check entries. I can create the form fine, but the plugin fails to make this clear. Please help. I like the plugin, but feel it is not straightforward in making it clear how to set the receiving email and check entries. I have checked form settings and all, and nothing is clear.

I agree. I am having trouble with the same issue. Please clarify the instruction on how to setup the “sending” email address. For example, if you say “Set an email address in sender email field. Make sure it is the email with same domain name as your website,” a screenshot would be helpful. Also, “In case empty email is sent, Use [smfield print=”all”] This tag is used to print all form data. In reply-to field it can be [smfield print=”email”].” I have no idea where or how this should be done. A screen shot or better instruction would really help? Thanks.

Hi @rsavage1,

Here’s the video explaining how to use the plugin and notifications.
In video for sender name field [smfield print=”name”] shortcode is used, Instead of using this just use a simple one word name.

[smfield print=”all”] shortcode is used to display all the submitted data in email.
You can choose specific fields by just replacing all from this shortcode [smfield print=”all”] with the field name.

For example [smfield print=”YOUR FIELD LABEL/NAME”]

Hi,

Form looks and works great. Receiving notification emails ok!

My issue is I’d like the email received to appear from the name input into the form, and the reply to being the email they’ve input into the form, so I can reply directly form my email account to enquires from clients.

Is this possible? Can’t seem to find the right shortcode for it.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi, @toshodin

In reply-to field on notifications panel insert : [smfield print=”email”]

If it is still not working then your email client is not detecting all the email header information properly.

Thanks

Thanks for the swift reply!

I have my WordPress to send email via Postman SMTP, would that effect this?

Using postman smtp is actually better than using default WordPress, Most private email client don’t utilize the header information sent with email.
