We have a list of contractors, and would like the notification emails to cycle through the list. </p> <p>Is it possible to have them go through the list in order using a counter or similar, rather than random? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/randomize-multiple-recipient-notifications#post-330356 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 12:41:06 +0000 David Peralty 330356@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You could, using programming then maybe have one notification, and swap the e-mail address by using the same random number idea, and matching it to an e-mail address in the code, and instead of putting the number in the field, you could put the e-mail address in and have the TO address be the merge tag for the hidden e-mail field. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/randomize-multiple-recipient-notifications#post-330320 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 12:07:51 +0000 jlolide 330320@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks for the help, David! That would work if we didn't have 32 agents, ha!</p> <p>I'll go to that as a last resort.

I would use one of our hooks, and generate a random number (let's say there are 5 agents, so a number between one and five). I would take that number and put it in a hidden field.</p> <p>Then in the notifications, I would have a condition that says "only send this notification if randomnumber is 1" and I would create five notifications like this to the different e-mail addresses.</p> <p>That way each time someone submits a form, it generates a random number (should be an even distribution over time) and sends the form to that specific agent. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/randomize-multiple-recipient-notifications#post-330270 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 11:34:59 +0000 jlolide 330270@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>1) I love GF, super awesome product, thanks for taking the time to read this.</p> <p>2) I have a basic contact form that I simply need to have the notifications randomly cycle through multiple users. It is a lead generation form for a real estate brokerage, so to make it fair, I need to have each new lead randomly select a user to receive the notification. Make sense?</p> <p>3) The order doesn't have to be random, it can have some sort of hierarchy. Ideally, it would pull email and name info from the wp users. If we have to input user info twice, that's ok.</p> <p>Any guidance is extremely appreciated!</p> <p>Thanks in advance,<br /> Jose </p>
