Ok, have managed to get this working partially. Ended up making a franken-add-on based on the various other modules.
The good:
Am seeing the value of the custom field if I include [customfield some-custom-field-name] in the form. Great.
The bad / not working:
If I add the customfield tag name to the Additional headers: area (the desired custom field happens to be an email) as in CC: [some-custom-field-name] <some-custom-field-email]>
then the CC field is blank! The email has a blank entry for CC, as shown:
Blank CC entry in resulting mail…
Anyone know why this is?
Here’s the module code if it helps:
<?php
/**
** contact form 7 module, which enables you to get the result of a custom field from the page that the form is on
** [customfield name] -> returns the value of a custom field on that post/page for [name]
**/
/* Shortcode handler */
/* Shortcode handler */
wpcf7_add_shortcode( 'customfield', 'wpcf7_customfield_shortcode_handler', true );
function wpcf7_customfield_shortcode_handler($field) {
global $wpcf7_contact_form;
global $wp_query;
$thePostID = $wp_query->post->ID;
$somefield = get_post_meta($thePostID, $field[name], true);
if (empty($somefield)) return '';
return $somefield;
}
add_filter( 'wpcf7_validate_customfield', 'wpcf7_customfield_validation_filter', 10, 2 );
function wpcf7_customfield_validation_filter( $result, $tag ) {
global $wpcf7_contact_form;
// $type = $tag['type'];
$name = $tag['name'];
$_POST[$name] = trim( strtr( (string) $_POST[$name], "\n", " " ) );
return $result;
