Got side-tracked from this particular project for a while, but this is a great lead, cheers!<br /> -jennyb </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/insert-blog-info#post-95979 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 02:18:38 +0000 Chris Hajer 95979@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I believe the email notifications will process shortcodes. If that works for you, you could always grab a plugin which provides a 'bloginfo' shortcode, and use the shortcode in the notification, something like [bloginfo key='name']. Something like this function right here:</p> <p><a href="http://css-tricks.com/snippets/wordpress/bloginfo-shortcode/" rel="nofollow">http://css-tricks.com/snippets/wordpress/bloginfo-shortcode/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/insert-blog-info#post-95758 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 12:03:14 +0000 David Peralty 95758@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yeah, we don't have a merge tag for that. Check out all of our merge tag options here:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Merge_Tags" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Merge_Tags</a></p> <p>You would not only have to create a field in the form, but also add to their functions.php file to grab the site title and push it into a field so you could use it in the notifications settings. I'm sure that isn't as easy as you were hoping, but there is no automated way for us to currently do what you are requesting. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/insert-blog-info#post-95749 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 11:35:48 +0000 jennybeaumont 95749@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi David,</p> <p>Thanks for the speedy reply. In this instance, I'm running GF on a multisite install. Each site, except the main site, has the same form. However, although the information is the same, I'd like to personalize the email notifications with something like "Hello [blogname], you've received a new message."</p> <p>Ideas about how I might go about this?</p> <p>thnx!<br /> -jennyb </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/insert-blog-info#post-95722 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 11:16:22 +0000 David Peralty 95722@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Our notifications section doesn't allow this. I guess my question would be "why do you want or need it?" You could use gform_pre_render to add the details to a hidden field in a form, so that you could then use a merge tag with the information in your notification, but these kinds of things are fairly static. Your blog name doesn't change often, does it? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/insert-blog-info#post-95638 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 06:51:48 +0000 jennybeaumont 95638@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>I was wondering if it's possible to insert Wordpress variables such as bloginfo( 'name' ); ? I'd like to use this for the email notifications...</p> <p>thnx!<br /> -jennyb </p>
