I guess whatever attribute would work for the recipient. Whatever would work for sending the email to that person.

Okay, I see what you’re saying. Sorry for the confusion.

Which attribute? I’m sorry I’m not sure what you mean by that.

I think a shortcode would work better. I’m not sure if there is a way to integrate it into the WPForms plugin. Basically from looking at the screenshot, I’d replace my email “[email protected]” with your shortcode/placeholder. That way every single page employee would repopulate the recipient field with the staff member’s email.

Sorry if this is confusing you, I’m not sure how else to explain it.

Like a placeholder to get the email address of the staff member. All I want to do is take that email address and make it the recipient of the email. This way I don’t have to create hundreds of forms for every single staff member.

OK, so there is no way for me to pull the email address from your plugin?

The only way I can make it “dynamic” is by making the user input the teacher’s email which would be displayed right above, taking that input and using that placeholder to send the email to that person. But, if there is a way I can pull the email of the staff member right into the form, this way all they have to input is their email and their message.

So this is how it’s currently set up, this was just for testing.
The shortcode is showing the contact form which I set up, but it’s only a form that’ll be directly emailed to me. I’m trying to figure out a way to make this field dynamic, so I could possibly input a placeholder or some other shortcode to grab the email for whichever employee for the form is on. This way students or parents can go into the staff directory and directly email any staff employee. Would there be any way that this is possible through your plugin?

It’s currently set as just my email address yes. But do you understand what I’m trying to do?

[wpforms id=”5474″ title=”false”]
It’s a shortcode to one form that I’ve created. I just made the recipient me to test the emails, but I want a way to make this recipient dynamic to each employee for the staff directory.

Yes

If there is an easier way to integrate it, let me know. I don’t even have to use this specific form plugin. I just need a way for students and parents to be able to email their teachers/staff through the staff directory.

Yes, via shortcode.

Thank you! I will try this out and let you know the result. Thanks for the quick responses.

We currently don’t have any plugin to create contact forms. This plugin was from our old site which was through Joomla! I was wondering if there was a way to add any sort of form through your plugin.

Here is a screenshot of our old site. Each employee would have this form when you click on their name, similar to what would show on the “Single Page” of each staff member.
