HTML Block Output in Email Notifications and on Pages

Hi,

I am using gravity forms to recommend a solution to people based on the answers to specific questions.

My form is at http://www.ibvmarketing.com/my-tool-advisor/

The recommendation contains html output including a link.

When you use my multi-page form, the conditional logic outputs the proper html on the second to last page of the form.

I need to be able to send the html information in a notification email and save it in the gravity forms entries, so someone can access it again (using the Gravity Forms Directory Plugin).

I read http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/conditional-html-fields-to-display-on-confirmation

because this is similar to my issue. I tried using the code mentioned at the end of that post (http://pastie.org/1291129). It displayed the new email content correctly, but I am not sure exactly how to modify that code for my purposes.

In the code there is a line

(" . $_POST["input_6"] . ")

I tried changing 6 to the field id number for the html block, but it didn't display.

How do you figure out the input number?

Or better yet, is there a notification tag like {all fields} where it can display the html blocks that meet the conditional logic used throughout the form?

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the answer.

I was able to find the ids, so for example I changed the line of code to

(" . $_POST["input_89"] . ")

Is that correct syntax, based on the code shown above from pastie?

which is an html block for me and it did not come up.

Also another concern of mine is if I add all the html blocks manually to the email it will defeat the purpose of the recommendation.

The idea is for only the html block that meets the conditional logic would be shown.

I also need this problem solved. Anyone? This shouldn't be that big of a deal, but apparently no one knows.

When you say this...

"You can always use styled paragraph text (textareas) with default text in place of textual content in HTML blocks. Those would be submitted along with the other form data because they're actual form elements."

Not sure exactly what you are proposing there. Please elaborate.

Resurecting this. I need this functionality. This is for a language school. I need a teacher to be able to select a students level. For each level, there is a set of capabilities that define what the level means (what the student is capable of doing in English at their level). Then in the notification to the student, I need the student to receive something like:

Your level: A1
You are capable of the following:
- Writing a simple post card
- Telling about where your are from
- Asking simple questions

I have created a drop down list in the form where the teacher selects the student's level (A1, A2, etc.), and then I use the list's merge tag to plug in the level in the notification. But how can I have the notification plug in the corresponding capabilities that are associated with the level given? (formatted in a list form, with bold, underline, etc)

In a way, I guess the list of capabilities is the value of the level given. Can one enter html coded lists in the value boxes of drop down field entries?

I'll give that a try. Thanks David.
