    I have this site: http://hardthaus.de/feinschmeckertermine/sos-kinderdorf/
    here you can make a booking for a dinner. In the form I have a hidden field called "Date of event" or in German "Datum des Feinschmeckertermines" in all posts I have a Custom Field called event_date

    in my hidden field I check Allow field to be populated dynamically
    and set Parameter Name: event_date

    but no data are transmited to e-mail, there I have {all_fields} so it must be visible.

    what am I doing wrong here?

    It think it was working a few month ago, now I came back on the site for updates and it found the mistake....

    How does the information get into the hidden field? Are you pulling it from the custom field called "event_date". Or are you trying to populate that hidden field, then save that information in a custom field?

    Please explain more about how your process works. Thanks.

    It sounds like you are pre-populating this form (at least this field) with information from a post, information stored in a custom field called "event_date"? Can you share the code that does that for you? How does the information from the custom field in the post get into the hidden form field "event_date"? Thank you

    you are right all the way....
    I miss this code, I changed my theme and the coding I did on the earlier version is long ago.
    Can you please give me a hit how to make this code again?
