[Plugin: Contact Form 7 Dynamic Text Extension] Grabbing username? | WordPress.org

My blog is only accessible to users who are logged in.

I would like to be able to automatically grab the login name of the person who is using the contact form and have it displayed in the email so I know exactly who is contacting me.

Can this be done with your plugin?

This might help… I’m going to test it out soon:

This functionality is now available in version 1.0.4. The tag would look like this:

[dynamictext user-email "CF7_get_current_user key='user_login'"]

You could hide it using the new [dynamichidden] tag

Awesome,

I was looking for the same thing. Worked like a charm! Great plugin btw. It saved me a grip of time. 🙂

@sevenspark fine, but we would rather have this user name or email address in the email body – not in the form 🙂

Any ideas?

@motylanogha, if by “email body” you mean the actual text sent in the email, then yes, everything variable can be inserted there. If you mean the message textarea, then no – CF7 DTX works only with text and hidden inputs.

So you could put the email/username in a hidden input if you like, e.g.:

[dynamichidden user-email “CF7_get_current_user key=’user_email'”]

Then place the [user-email] tag in the CF7 message body to send it.

You could not prepopulate the message textarea on the client side with this value, however.
