If he used CSS/JS to hide the field versus the hidden field type, then it will still show in the notifications.

Then you would be able to grab them with a normal merge tag. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-encode-obfuscate-merge-tag-values#post-330436 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:04:27 +0000 lohck 330436@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am including in the notification email template, a link with a couple of parameters built using merge tags.</p> <p>eg. <a href="http://domain.com/page.php?a=" rel="nofollow">http://domain.com/page.php?a=</a>{merge tag}&amp;b= ...... </p> <p>Is there a way to encode / obfuscate the parameters values?
