Shortcodes for notification emails

    I would like to create newly generated posts as pending posts for normal members. An email should inform an authorized user that a new pending post has been created so that he can publish it.

    With ACF Frontend you can generate eMails as an action. Are there shortcodes for the email body, which informs e.g. about the title or the author of the new post?

    Unfortunately the email shortcuts at the beginning of the Email section do not work for me. E.g. the message “The user [user:username] has changed his profile” creates an email with the body “The user [user:username] has changed his profile”, so the placeholder is not replaced.

    In contrast, ACF short codes like [$acf:adresse] work perfectly. Am I doing something wrong?

    The user short codes should be changed:

    [$user:username] instead of [user:username]
    [$user:first_name] instead of [user:first_name]
    [$user:last_name] instead of [user:last_name]

    Unfortunately [$user:email] still does not work

    I have found two more user short codes:

    [$user:user_email]
    [$user:display_name]

    To be completely happy I still need to be:

    [$user:nickname]
    [$user:user_bio]

    Both do not work (yet)
