Hi,

Does the [ANSWER_*] shortcode work? I have been trying to output the phone numbers of my attendees to their Event Registration Details email to no avail. I have tried [ANSWER_*Contact Number], Contact Number being the title I picked for the question. The question title has no html elements in it.

The shortcode does not work in any one of the content fields eg [ATTENDEE_LIST], [EVENT_LIST]

I have tested it with other questions eg. [ANSWER_*Address] [ANSWER_*First Name], and none of them output any answers.

The shortcode does not work with admin names either.

I have not hacked the core.

Please assist.

Hi,

Yes, it seems that does not want to work! I will get a developer ticket raised to look into it. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Hi,

Thanks for letting me know. Is there a way around this in the meantime? I only require the address and contact details (phone, email) to be sent together with the other questions ([QUESTION] and [ANSWER] functions well). Currently, no contact details are sent in the email.

Hi,

There is no work around for it currently, but we are working on having a fix for this released soon.
