1. How to include custom generic fields that were added to the form in the notification email
You can use custom placeholders in a notification email to access generic field contents. We have more information about that with some examples here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/how-to-use-custom-placeholders-in-cred-notifications/
If you have specific questions about this process, feel free to open new tickets so we can discuss in detail.

I have followed the instructions in the documentation and added the below code, but getting an 500 error page -

add_filter('cred_subject_notification_codes', 'custom_generic_field_notification', 10, 1);

add_filter('cred_body_notification_codes', 'custom_generic_field_notification', 10, 1);

function custom_generic_field_notification( $defaultPlaceHolders ) {

$newPlaceHolders = array(
'%%Name%%' => $_REQUEST['Name']
);

return array_merge($defaultPlaceHolders, $newPlaceHolders );
}

add_filter('cred_subject_notification_codes', 'custom_generic_field_notification', 10, 1);

add_filter('cred_body_notification_codes', 'custom_generic_field_notification', 10, 1);

function custom_generic_field_notification( $defaultPlaceHolders ) {

$newPlaceHolders = array(
'%%Email%%' => $_REQUEST['Email']
);

return array_merge($defaultPlaceHolders, $newPlaceHolders );
}

Hi, rather than including multiple custom_generic_field_notification functions, please merge your new placeholders into the same array and function like this:

add_filter('cred_subject_notification_codes', 'custom_generic_field_notification', 10, 1);

add_filter('cred_body_notification_codes', 'custom_generic_field_notification', 10, 1);

function custom_generic_field_notification( $defaultPlaceHolders ) {

$newPlaceHolders = array(
'%%Name%%' => $_REQUEST['Name'],
'%%Email%%' => $_REQUEST['Email']
);

return array_merge($defaultPlaceHolders, $newPlaceHolders );
}

Any new placeholders can be added to the $newPlaceHolders array like this.
