The values are being posted to the form, as you can see in the code here: <a href="http://cl.ly/0x3V3o0i433l241D1j0E" rel="nofollow">http://cl.ly/0x3V3o0i433l241D1j0E</a></p> <p>Good point, the data isn't being saved/stored either: <a href="http://cl.ly/2R0U0a1U3O3p3A3Y2G3b" rel="nofollow">http://cl.ly/2R0U0a1U3O3p3A3Y2G3b</a></p> <p>I dont want the user to change the values in these 2 fields, so I've set them (via jQuery) as 'disabled'. Is this perhaps why GForms is ignoring the data? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/fields-populated-dynamically-not-showing-up-in-email#post-38304 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 12:16:40 +0000 Chris Hajer 38304@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Oh, there are 3 places there. Got it. The one field that is not populated dynamically (name) is working OK?</p> <p>Can you try it without quotes though, just as a test? Maybe if the parser encounters quotes, it stops, or something. Just troubleshooting.</p> <p>I can't see how you're populating the fields though. Can you share a link to the form? It's possible the fields are not making it into the entry.</p> <p>That's a good question. Are the dynamic fields being stored properly with the entry, or are they missing there too? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/fields-populated-dynamically-not-showing-up-in-email#post-38302 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 12:12:36 +0000 markbloomfield 38302@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Chris. Thanks for your reply...</p> <p>There's 2 areas where dynamic fields are being called. One has quotes around it, and the other doesn't. Neither are working, so I don't think quotes are the issue.</p> <p><code>Your friend {Your Name:1} thought you might like this &quot;{Product:6}&quot; product listed on Born With Style.</code><br /> <code>{URL:7}</code></p> <p>Product:6 and URL:7 are the 2 'dynamic' fields.</p> <p>I'm using the latest version, Version 1.5.3. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/fields-populated-dynamically-not-showing-up-in-email#post-38300 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 12:07:59 +0000 Chris Hajer 38300@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I can't really see any text in the first image you linked to, but that might just be my monitor.</p> <p>It looks like you're doing it correctly. Can you try removing the quotes around {Product:6} and see if that has any effect? Maybe the merge tag is not being parsed properly when it encounters quotes like that. You could use HTML like &lt; strong &gt;{Product:6}&lt;/ strong &gt; around it, or &lt; em &gt;{Product:6}&lt;/ em &gt;. It looks like the name is working properly.</p> <p>If removing the quotes allows it to work properly, we can look into why it's happening in the first place.</p> <p>Also, what version of Gravity Forms are you using? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/fields-populated-dynamically-not-showing-up-in-email#post-38272 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 07:40:38 +0000 markbloomfield 38272@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi guys</p> <p>I have created a form that opens via Fancybox. Two fields are required to be pre-populated in that form and so I'm passing these via a URL parameter.</p> <p>The form is receiving these parameters fine, as you can see here: <a href="http://cl.ly/2z05052q0v2u0W1I2C46" rel="nofollow">http://cl.ly/2z05052q0v2u0W1I2C46</a></p> <p>In the notification settings, I'm calling these fields as directed: <a href="http://cl.ly/2k2T2O471V1C2D3f3s05" rel="nofollow">http://cl.ly/2k2T2O471V1C2D3f3s05</a></p> <p>However the email I'm receiving, the dynamically populated fields aren't showing up: <a href="http://cl.ly/151L3S0F0W3W1a0m3c0d" rel="nofollow">http://cl.ly/151L3S0F0W3W1a0m3c0d</a></p> <p>Can anyone assist me with a reason why this is happening please?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
