The EE_ANSWER shortcode doesn’t seem to work for questions that are not marked as required.
It’s a single site, all plugins and wordpress are up to date.
PHP Version : 5.4.13 / 64Bit OS

Hi John,
Is this for the email ee_answer shortcode, the one for the ticket template, or the attendee list?
Can you post the exact shortcode that you’re using so we can investigate?

in this particular case i have “company” and “website” as 2 custom questions, first one being required.
$company = do_shortcode(‘[EE_ANSWER q=”13″ a=”‘.$id.'”]’);
$website = do_shortcode(‘[EE_ANSWER q=”14″ a=”‘.$id.'”]’);
The company pulls out just fine, but instead of the website i get the info stored in the question that has the id 15 witch is also required.
So i’m guessing the routine just ignores the unrequited questions.

I ran a quick test to see if would skip over required questions and it displayed the non required questions.
I thought it might have something to do with content of the website question’s answer, which I imagined could throw things off under specific conditions. So I ran another test and entered a website URL into a non-required text field and it still worked.
To be honest I’m a bit stumped on this one. I checked through the ee_answer shortcode’s code in shortcodes.php and I don’t see any checks for a required flag.
Can you check in the database (they’re in the events_answer table) to see if the answers are actually getting recorded there, and if so, if they look like the answers that were entered?
