Maybe it's just too basic to have been asked.</p> <p>On a submission form, I have a custom field which is an email field. I want a notification sent to that email address, but it's not an Advanced Fields &gt; Email field, it's a Post Fields &gt; Custom Field because I want it to be included in the Custom Field Type.</p> <p>I see these possibilities:<br /> 1. two fields (one hidden) on the form, one of which populates the other<br /> 2. one Advanced Fields &gt; Email field that is written to the Custom Post Type field, something like<br /> add_action("gform_after_submission_1", "after_submission", 10, 2);<br /> function after_submission($entry, $form){<br /> //changing post content<br /> update_post_meta($entry['post_id'], 'email', $post-&gt;post_content = $entry[14]);<br /> }<br /> 3. one Post Fields &gt; Custom Field that is somehow referenced in notifications</p> <p>Or some 4th way I don't see. What is best/cleanest/works? And how to do it?</p> <p>Beth </p>
