[Resolved] Add User surname in notification emails from registration Form

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I have a Form that creates new User registrations. In an email notification on that Form, I would like to include the User's information.

Solution: Use the Placeholders button to insert information about the newly registered User, like the User's login information or name.

Thanks,

In the Notification e-mail subject editor, click the Fields and Views button.
Find the user field you want to display and click to insert it.
In the User selection pop-up dialog that appears, select Author of the current post and click Insert shortcode.

Find the user field you want to display and click to insert it.
Which category of fields is this? user data, basic data?

I want to simply add the user name surname etc, it is a registration form? please give an example full

You can insert standard User fields like first name and last name, or you can insert custom fields from the User profile. The standard WordPress fields are listed in the popup in the section called "User data" (screenshot 4). Custom fields will be listed in the popup and grouped by Field Group name (screenshot 3).

You can simply insert the standard "Last name" field in the Form and notification as shown in the screenshots here.

Okay I was a bit confused, sorry. In the email notification for a User Form, it's best to use the Placeholders feature to display the new User's information. See the screenshot here.
