Hello Again

I am trying to send the form data to an email address. When the completed form is submitted, the email message is received correctly, but the email message is blank -- no data. What am I doing wrong?

Hope to catch you while you're still online, to help speed things up a bit.

Can you provide a link to the form in question?

Visually the form looks fine. Did you mess with the HTML under Settings > Email Notices > Configure email message? It looks like you may have removed [form_results] from the markup.

Here is the code from the Custom Notification box:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html dir="ltr" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Web Form Inquiry<title>
</head>
<body>
<p>To: Dr. Chad Adams</p>
<p>From: Webmaster</p>
<p><b>A visitor to your website filled out the Contact Form:</b></p>
[name][email][address1][address2][city][state][postal][option][phone][form_results]
</body>
</html>

I would suggest opening a support ticket and send us your .fb file.

Also, FYI "[name][email][address1][address2][city][state][postal][option][phone][form_results]" You are basically inserting all the form data twice. You should remove [form_results] as you have the items already individually listed.

Just an update on this. The problem was the HTML markup was invalid in the Configure email messages dialog. Once I corrected the markup, it worked.

So no bug there. ;)
