The GF form object has a lot of properties that can be modified on the fly, one of those being the <strong>autoResponder</strong> property which I'll go over in a just a second.</p> <p><code>if($form[&#39;id&#39;] != 6) return $form;</code></p> <p>Next we're making sure that we are on the right form. The form I used to test this had an id of 6, so this logic says "if this form doesn't have an id of 6, let's not doing any else and return the $form object as is.</p> <pre><code>if($_POST[&#39;input_1&#39;] == &#39;Yes!&#39;) { $form[&#39;autoResponder&#39;][&#39;message&#39;] = &#39;Great! Here\&#39;s your custom confirmation message.&#39;; } else { $form[&#39;autoResponder&#39;][&#39;message&#39;] = &#39;Wait? You really don\&#39;t want a custom confirmation message?&#39;; }</code></pre> <p>Now we're ready to check the value the user submitted through our drop down field. You can access any values the user submitted through the form through the $_POST global. Want to see what's inside the $_POST after a form submission? Check out PHP's <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/function.print-r.php" rel="nofollow">print_r</a> function. It will output all the contents of any variable you pass to it. I've left this intact on the test form provided above so you can see what this looks like.</p> <p>You'll see (on my test form) ['input_1'] holds the value for the drop down. So if $_POST['input_1'] equals "Yes!" we can update the message property of the autoResponder property of the form (hope that isn't too confusing) and voila! You've got yourself the first custom email confirmation message. </p> <p>If $_POST['input_1'] equals anything else, they get a different custom email confirmation message. Keep in mind that you can still use tokens in these messages (ie {field_name:1}).</p> <p><code>$_POST[&#39;input_1&#39;]</code></p> <p>And the most important part... returning our modified form object.</p> <p>Haha, sorry that got a little long winded there. I guess I'm a teach-a-man-to-fish kind of guy. ;) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/conditional-notification-mesasage#post-7965 Thu, 29 Jul 2010 05:32:30 +0000 juxprose 7965@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks Carl, that's very helpful. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/conditional-notification-mesasage#post-7915 Wed, 28 Jul 2010 11:07:05 +0000 Carl Hancock 7915@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Conditional email notifications aren't currently possible. We are planning on developing an advanced notification add-on that will add this type of functionality, but currently it isn't possible.</p> <p>It is possible to do a conditional form confirmation message by using the redirect functionality, passing the form field value to a custom PHP page and then showing the message you want to show based on that form field value. But would take creating a custom redirect confirmation page. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/conditional-notification-mesasage#post-7906 Wed, 28 Jul 2010 07:31:47 +0000 binarylab 7906@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm looking for this functionality too! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/conditional-notification-mesasage#post-7905 Wed, 28 Jul 2010 06:34:52 +0000 juxprose 7905@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello</p> <p>Is it possible to send a different message based on an action within the form?
