Content template inserts select option name not value

    Hi

    I use a drop down menu populated via custom taxonomy plugin.

    In the same form I have a user defined field which is populated via the above field using the content template option {Therapiemethoden, Kategorie:28}.

    Unfortunately the custom field stores the option name e.g. Yoga and not the option value e.g. 123.

    Is there a way to bring the content tempate to use the value?

    Regards

    Richard

    By default the Merge Tags return the option name. If you want the merge tag to return the value you can append :value to the merge tag.

    So instead of this:

    {My Merge Tag:1}

    You would use this:

    {My Merge Tag:1:value}

    You can find documentation on merge tags and their available options here:
