Displaying the value of Field Label

  1. I've asked this question before, but, I don't know that I ever got a specific answer and the thread I started went off topic (by me) and has not had a response in a couple of days.

    When you edit a product field in GF, there is Field Label, Field Type, Choices (for Drop Down), etc.

    Can I configure this plug in so that Field Label is shown on the email notification and the visual confirm that shows to client when they click "submit" on the form? This value must be stored somewhere and I would like to know how I can utilize it in my notification process.

    Thank you.

  2. Form field data is displayed in the email notifications and the confirmation using merge tags. Merge tags output the field information. By default, merge tags output the field choice label for drop down/radio button/checkbox fields because that is typically the user friendly value.

    However, you can tell it to output the actual field value by appending :value to the end of the merge tag. For example {My Field:1} would output the choice label and {My Field:1:value} would output the value.

    You can read more about merge tags here:

    Please note some of the enhanced options on the {all_fields} merge tag are only available in the 1.6 release which is currently available for download but it is a development release.

  3. Awesome Carl. Thank you very much. I happen to be using 1.6 (with no issues currently).
