I need to add two custom fields (1)type='phone' (2)type='numeric', to a notification email, that is send out when a User Form is filled in.

The coding for the User Form is:

[creduserform]
<div class="form-group">
<label>Email (Username)</label>
[cred_field field='user_email' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>

<div class="form-group">
<label>Password</label>
[cred_field field='user_pass' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
[cred_field field='user_pass2' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>

<div class="form-group">
<label>First name</label>
[cred_field field='first_name' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>

<div class="form-group">
<label>Last name</label>
[cred_field field='last_name' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>

[cred_field field='form_messages' class='alert alert-warning']

<div class="form-group">
<label>Phone</label>
[cred_generic_field type='phone' field='phone' class='form-control']
{
"required":0,
"default":""
}
[/cred_generic_field]
</div>

<div class="form-group">
<label>NPTA Membership Number</label>
[cred_generic_field type='numeric' field='npta_membership_number' class='form-control']
{
"required":0,
"default":""
}
[/cred_generic_field]
</div>

[cred_field field='recaptcha' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
[cred_field field='form_submit' output='bootstrap' value='Submit' class='btn btn-primary btn-lg']
[/creduserform]

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You can use the Toolset Form's hook: cred_body_notification_codes

For example - add the following code to your current theme's functions.php file

add_filter('cred_body_notification_codes', 'func_merge_custom_notification_placeholder', 10, 1);
function func_merge_custom_notification_placeholder($defaultPlaceHolders) {
    return array_merge($defaultPlaceHolders, array('%%PHONE%%' => $_REQUEST['phone']));
}

Now, within your email notification body, you can display the phone as:

%%PHONE%%

Please check the following Doc:

Hello

Thank you very much for your reply!

I have managed to add the phone field in my notification email and it works!

How do I add the following to the NPTA Membership Number to the notification email?

<div class="form-group">
<label>NPTA Membership Number</label>
[cred_generic_field type='numeric' field='npta_membership_number' class='form-control']
{
"required":0,
"default":""
}
[/cred_generic_field]
</div>

You can replace the old code with the following one:

add_filter('cred_body_notification_codes', 'func_merge_custom_notification_placeholder', 10, 1);
function func_merge_custom_notification_placeholder($defaultPlaceHolders) {
    return array_merge($defaultPlaceHolders, array('%%PHONE%%' => $_REQUEST['phone'],'%%NPTAMEMBERSHIPNO%%' => $_REQUEST['npta_membership_number']));
}

and you can use it as follow within your email notification body;

%%NPTAMEMBERSHIPNO%%
