 * Hi Roland !
 * Can we transpose the ‘[id]’ to show the ID of the record like the placeholder
   for ‘[record_link]’ to become a clickable link inside the email sent to signed
   up members?
 * A print screen may explain clearer : [http://prnt.sc/awqxsw](http://prnt.sc/awqxsw)
 * I hope my question is clear.
 * Regards..
 * Thanks.

 * Hi Roland !
 * In contrast to what had been asked on [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/display-user-id-upon-form-submission?replies=4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/display-user-id-upon-form-submission?replies=4)(
   the user just need a bare display of ID instead of newly-created URL of the ID
   inside the thank-you page ); instead, I need the signed-up member to see the 
   newly-created ID( the pdb (numbered ID ),not the PID (alphabet) as a clickable
   URL when we put ‘[id]’ tag in the Signup Thanks Message.
 *  So that the person can view (without editing) their personal data in their received
   email when they clicked the URL received like this [http://contoh.pw/data/?pdb=1013](http://contoh.pw/data/?pdb=1013)
   inside their inbox.
 * I hope this can explain better for what is needed by me.
 * Thanks Roland!
 * Regards..
    Sam.

 * You have to build the url yourself. Go to the individual record page and look
   at a record, you’ll see in the URL the ID of the record, just build your url 
   like that in your template:
 * /single-record?pdb=[id]
 * You’ll need to add the rest of the URL, it will be clickable if I show that part.
