Custom field – Send as HTML

Hey there! Did you sort this out? I’m having the exact same problem!

Aww that’s a bummer. This thing’s driving me crazy.

In the meantime im just adding this to my functions.php

add_filter('wpcf7_hidden_field_value', 'limpiar_html_cf7hf');
function limpiar_html_cf7hf($value = '') {
	$value = esc_html(wp_strip_all_tags( $value ));
	return $value;
}

This will send the custom field content as plaint text.

I also tried another method:

function wpcf7_update_email_body($contact_form) {

  $submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance();
  $url = $submission->get_meta( 'url' );

        global $post;
	$the_post_id = $post->ID;

   if ( $submission ) {
   $mail = $contact_form->prop('mail');
   $mail['body'] .= '<p> '. $url .' '. $post.'</p>';
   $contact_form->set_properties(array('mail' => $mail));
  }
}

I was trying to get the post id, but it will always return a 0 or nothing. Depends on how I try to get it. If I could get the post id, i would be able to attach the custom field content to the end of the mail’s body. If you are using ACF you could do something like $post = get_field(‘field_name’ , post_id) and that works. I hard coded it and it worked, html was fine on the mail.

So anyways, please let me know if you find a way to fix this. It would be awesome to render html tags correctly on mail.
