We have two fields in one of our forms:
updateauthorname (a single line field)
updateauthoremail (an email field)

Is it possible to have this info displayed in a template using a mailto link?

I've tried adding this to one of my cells:
[types field='updateauthorname'][/types]
but it doesn't generate what I'd like.

Is my approach not right or is it simply not possible to do this?

Hi Roger,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

This is actually possible and your setup seems correct.

Would you mind providing me with a link to the frontend so that I can have a look at this ?

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane. Here's a test link where you can see it in action: hidden link

You want to be looking at the very bottom of the right sidebar below "Update Author"

Hi Roger,

For the email field add output = 'raw' because this field normally outputs the url as a mailto on its own.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane, I'm not sure where I need to add output = 'raw'

Is it in the Edit Post Field Group section? (see attached) Or somewhere else?

Hi Roger,

Sorry that I didnt provide an example but it should be [types field='updateauthoremail' output='raw'][/types]

Thanks,
Shane
