Little issue with [RECIPIENT_ANSWER_*] on ticket

Hi there,

I have a few custom question on my registration page and I’d like to show one answer on the ticket.

The name of the question “PLAYERNAME” and i used the shortcode [RECIPIENT_ANSWER_*PLAYERNAME] to show it, but it’s completely blank.

Just to be sure, I tried to add [ANSWER] to the [QUESTION_LIST] and the answer of this question shows fine into the list of all the answers.

Is there a way to fix it? And to only show the PLAYERNAME and not all the answers ?

The playername should show like this right before the price:

[RECIPIENT_ANSWER_*PLAYERNAME]([RECIPIENT_FNAME] [RECIPIENT_LNAME])

I’m working on Event Espresso – 4.10.8.p Version 5.5.1

Thanks for the answers πŸ™‚

Hi there,

ANSWER_* shortcodes take the ‘Question Text’ value of the question you want to display the answer to and the value must match exactly.

So right now, in your example you are looking for a custom question on your site with the ‘Question Text’ field set to ‘PLAYERNAME’.

Looking at your event I don’t see a PLAYERNAME question or similar.

What is the ‘Question Text’ of the question you want to pull the answer to?

Again note that it must match exactly, so if you have a question set as ‘Do YoU LiKe ChEeSe?’ your shortcode would look like this:

[RECIPIENT_ANSWER_*Do YoU LiKe ChEeSe?]
