a.e.a.m.S

I am trying to: place the email toolset field in the "Notification e-mail from:"

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: see image attachment

I expected to see: the email from the person who's filling in the form

Instead, I got: not possible to put a shortcode in the filed that will output the email as a "notification from" emailadress

I want to see the emailadres filled in on the form as the "from" emailadres when i receive a notification by email so that i can reply directly to the person who filled in the form.

Hello,

There isn't such a built-in feature within Toolset form plugin, the "Notification e-mail from" field does not support custom field value.

And even you can create custom codes to setup the "Notification e-mail from" as custom field value, it will conduct other problem, for example:

spoofing of email addresses
Your user can use other people's email address to send the emails, so I don't think it is practical.

Anyway, you can add a feature request for it:

Our developers will evaluate it.
