This part should be located in functions.php with your function instead of in the form

add_filter('list-of-categories', 'wt_category_list', 10, 2);

I don’t see anything at line 194 that should cause this.

Is this happening only when validation fails, for example when the field is required and nothing is selected? Or does it happen every time.

I just noticed that you’re using my example file. By default this file is not actually included anywhere. Did you copy those functions to your functions.php file.

The example file will get overwritten then next time I update the plugin.

This field gives the name of the filter. The name of the field must be “dynamic-mail-to-filter”. The value of the field is the name of the filter hook.

[simplehidden dynamic-mail-to-filter "dynamic-to-from-filter-hook"]

This is the field that specifies the additional field values to pass to the filter. The name of this field must be “dynamic-mail-to-fields”. The value of this field is a comma separated list of field names.

[simplehidden dynamic-mail-to-fields "field1,field2,field3"]

Hi,

Can you outline what it is you’re trying to do. What you want to base where the email is sent on.

I can also give you an example of the way I’ve used it, and actually the reason that I created this in the first place. The client wanted the emails from a form to go to different recipients depending on topic selected.

So first I have a select field with the topics

Topic: [select your-topic "choice 1" "choice 2" "choice 3"]

Then I used my other plugin that creates hidden fields to create the following fields.

[simplehidden dynamic-mail-to-filter "dynamic-to-from-topic"]
[simplehidden dynamic-mail-to-fields "your-topic"]

The first field is the name of the filter to apply and the second is the field name of the topic field so that the value of that field is passed to the filter.

The next thing I did was to create the filter function that returns an email address based on the topic value selected.

add_filter('dynamic-to-from-topic', 'dynamic_to_from_topic'), 10, 2);
function dynamic_to_from_topic($recipient, $args=array()) {
  $topic = 'default';
  if (isset($args['your-topic'])) {
    $topic = $args['your-topic'];
  }
  $recipient = 'default@email.com';
  $recipients = array(
    'default' => 'default@email.com',
    'choice 1' => 'person1@email.com',
    'choice 2' => 'person2@email.com',
    'choice 3' => 'person3@email.com'
  );
  if (isset($recipients[$topic])) {
    $recipient = $recipients[$topic];
  }
  return $recipient;
}

Let me know if that helps or if I can explain further.
