   Hi,

   Each of my posts have their unique email's as Custom Field and a contact form.

   How can I pull the mail recipient of Contact Form 7 from the post's email custom field?

   So the email is sent to the post's email.

   Thanks in advance. :)

   Contact Form 7 doesn't pull data from custom fields. It will require some code customization.

   What about hidden fields?

   How do you use hidden fields?

   Copy the form's code on preview and add it manually and then add a Hidden Field.

   <input type="hidden" id="receiver" name="receiver" value="email@company.com"/>

   I've managed to fix this problem by adding my own form.

   Hi Valdi

   Could you share any more information on how you solved this? I've been looking for an answer to this for some time now.

   Thanks.

   I put up a post about achieving this - (all credit to Phycel (http://wordpress.org/support/profile/phycel) for the hack)

    Here is a very easy way of doing this:

    Just follow the instructions at the top of the script.

    <?php
    /**
    ** A base module for [hidden customfield]
    **
    **--Instructions--
    ** Put this script as a file (hidden_custom.php) into the plugins/contact-form-7/modules/ folder.
    ** "Hidden Custom Field" should now be an option in the "Generate Tag" dropdown of your contact form.
    ** Type the name of your custom field in the "The Custom Field name goes here" field.
    ** Put the 2 generated into the form and email as indicated.
    **
    **/
    
    // Shortcode handler
    
    wpcf7_add_shortcode( hidden, 'wpcf7_hidden_shortcode_handler', true );
    
    function wpcf7_hidden_shortcode_handler( $tag ) {
    	if ( ! is_array( $tag ) )
    		return '';
    
    	$name = $tag['name'];
    
    	$options = (array) $tag['options'];
    	$values = (array) $tag['values'];
    
    	$atts = '';
    	$id_att = '';
    
    	$class_att .= ' wpcf7-hidden';
    
    	foreach ( $options as $option ) {
    		if ( preg_match( '%^id:([-0-9a-zA-Z_]+)$%', $option, $matches ) ) {
    			$id_att = $matches[1];
    		}
    	}
    
    	if ( $id_att )
    		$atts .= ' id="' . trim( $id_att ) . '"';
    
    	global $wp_query;
    
    	$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;
