Data Injection inside confirmation email

  1. Gravitiy users and hackers,

    I hope someone can help me here, as i'm not the best programmer for this kind of stuff

    Problem
    After a user submits a form, they get a confirmation email with a nice thank you. But what i want inside that email, is a unique code (i got 1000s of them) that the user can use to buy something nice from a other website

    To be stupid clear here.. : If there are 1000 unique coupon codes, and it will display 1 coupon after a customer sends his data, there should be only 999 left ofcourse in the database somewhere.

    Possible solution (is there one?)
    I can inject those codes inside the SQL database and make a simple php script that inject this inside the delivered email.

    How do i do that?

    PS : If someone has a better idea, i'm open for that also :)

  2. You will want to use the gform_pre_submission filter so you can modify the notification before it's sent. It should be no problem. You will need to decide how you pull a coupon code and keep track that it has been used so it's not given out again.
