   Looking for way to pass date / time in contact form 7 emails.. Or a unique number to track contact form 7 emails.. Any suggestions for a non-php programmer? thanks!

   Use [_date] and [_time]

   Special Mail Tags

   Thanks much. Surprised I missed this on the docs page.

   Is there any way to add a unique number that passes into the email? Basically I'm collecting tasks with a form and need to assign task-id with each email that goes out from the contact form.

   please advise if there's a way to accomplish this as well. thanks again!

   You might want to try Contact Form 7 to Database Extension.

   Yes. Have that.. it's excellent. The only issue is I need to pass a unique number along with the email confirm of the contact form. Teams can work based on a simple unique task-id (as they don't log into wp admin).

   Please do advise if there's any way to put a unique ID ( or the id of saved entry) into the contact form 7 email. Really would simplify our workflow. tks!

   Hey rmx101, did you ever find an answer to your ID # question? I have the need for that exact thing as well.

   imasharpone,
   Didn't find unique ID so I started passing the date time (hidden) fields from Contact form 7 to make form entries unique. Still wish there was a way to pass a simple number through contact form emails. If you find something let me know.
