 * Is there any functionality/plugin that you know of that can determine the recipient
   of the email/form based on a user? So, if logged-in User-A submits the form, 
   then Recipient-A will receive it?
 * Just curious if you know of anything, or if you have a hook/filter that could
   accomplish this?

 * Hi [@nrtdesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nrtdesign/),
 * Yes, you can set up [conditional notifications](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-create-conditional-form-notifications-in-wpforms/)
   based on input in the field.
 * To do what you’ve described, you can set up a hidden field with one of the [user Smart Tags](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-use-smart-tags-in-wpforms/#smart-tags)
   as the default value. The Smart Tag will then pull the corresponding user information
   into the field when submitted.
 * You can then set up conditional logic in the notifications to send emails to 
   specific recipients based on input in that field.
 * Conditional logic and the hidden field are features available with any of our
   [paid licenses](https://wpforms.com/pricing/).
 * Hope this helps!

 * Thanks for the response.
 * Just so I’m clear on what you’re saying – would I enter a value in some custom
   field for the user (Settings -> Users), and then the form will detect that value/
   field, and then perform a conditional check that will determine the email recipient?

 * Hi [@nrtdesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nrtdesign/),
 * I apologize for the confusion!
 * In WPForms we have Smart Tags such as `{user_email}` or `{user_id}`, that can
   pull details from the WordPress database.
 * This Smart Tag can be used as a default value for a [hidden field](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-choose-the-right-form-field-for-your-forms/#hidden-field),
   which will not be visible for the user.
 * In the notification settings, you can configure notification to be sent out conditionally
   based on the values in the hidden field.
 * I hope this helps!
 * If you have more pre-sale questions, please feel free to [contact our team](https://wpforms.com/contact).
 * Thanks!
