Dear Community,

my Problem is: i have no idea how to put this conditional logic in my email-output.
I want a special Salutation für a male and a female person. So i created a conditional logic.
But i need this in my email templates: i can choose
[salutationFemale]
[salutationMale]

but when i put this in my email and submit my contact form i get an email with this:

…….
text text text..

[salutationFemale]
[salutationMale]

text text text..
….

Have a look here:

Since version 0.2 this is possible.

In your form you could put:
```
[group salutationFemale][/group]
[group salutationMale][/group]
```
It’s Not necesary to put any text in between.

And then in your email template you could add:
```
[salutationFemale] Dear Ma'am[/salutationFemale]
[salutationMale] Dear Sir[/salutationMale]
```
Hope this helps.

PS: Don’t forget to update to version 0.2 or later first

HI,

unfortunately the new version is not compatible with the last version of cf7. I cannot submit my form anymore. So i had to deactivate your plugin. Can you reproduce this?
Thanks, Melanie

Dear Jules,

a few months later 😉
I tried your plugin again und it works –in SOME PAGES.
But not in that page I need 😉

I use the current Version of WP (4.7.3)und all my plugins are up-to-date.

My gender-specific Salutation works like a charm in other websites- but not in one website I work currently – and I have no idea why 😉

I use Email 1 + Email 2 an I get these results in my inbox:

[salutationFemale] Dear Ma’am[/salutationFemale]
[salutationMale] Dear Sir[/salutationMale]
…

So the email-Tags show up in my Email.
I tried deactivate all plugins except CF7 and this plugin – same Result.

My Site is hosted bei hosteurope.de and i have to use the WP-Mail-SMTP Plugin because I cannot send Email via WordPress with this Hosting-Partner.

Maybe this might affect the functionality of your Plugin?

I would be incredibly thankful if you could help me 😉

Best wishes, Melanie

If anyone stumbles across the same error or if you, Melanie, didn’t find out yet:
It seems that the conditions in the email text are only respected if they are actually used in the form as well.

Cheers,
Chris
