Post Body's "Create Post content template" question

    When I add a Post Body to the demo form there is a section called Create Post content template.

    I noticed in the drop down menu some of the choices also include some like "Prove You're Human" and "What's on Your Mind?"

    I noticed that these where the names of some fields from above.

    Could I essentially create a form with a Post Body, add some Standard Fields to the form like a drop down, a checkbox field, name them whatever I want and then call them in the Post Body's Create Post content template so that that data will appear in a posts body?

  2. Yes. The Post Content Template allows you to control the Post Body using form field variables. Similar to how you configure your notifications you can output form field values as part of the Post Body.

    A major use for this is outputting a Post Image into the Post Body.

    Keep in mind when using the Post Content Template that if you also need to select the Post Body field itself to output it's value into that field. Whatever appears in the Post Content Template, including any form field variables you have opted to include, will be what is used for the Post Body. So HTML, form field variables, etc.
