Dear Sir/Madam,

I create a user form, I want to send a welcome email to the newly registered user, I add below code to the Notification e-mail body

Welcome [wpv-user field="user_firstname"] [wpv-user field="user_lastname"] ([wpv-user field="user_email"]) joining Assistutor, should you want to know more about how Assistutor can help you, visit our <a href='/services/'">Services</a>

I test and get the welcome message as below

Welcome () joining Assistutor, should you want to know more about how Assistutor can help you, visit our Services.

The user_firstname and user_lastname were gone, did I miss some important setting?

My site has 3 languages, how do I state the URL to the hyperlink?

Best regards,

Kelvin.

Hi Kelvin

For registration forms where a new user is being created, you need to edit the wpv-user shortcodes and add the attribute id='%%USER_ID%%'

You have one form, and the form texts are translated into the 3 languages, so the visitor will see the form in their language, yes?

You can check this more easily than I can because you have an existing site already, but what happens if you output the url of the page you want to link to using the wpv-post-url shortcode?

Dear Nigel,

Thanks for your reply. May I confirm I should code like this?

Welcome [wpv-user field="user_firstname" id='%%USER_ID%%'] [wpv-user field="user_lastname" id='%%USER_ID%%'] ([wpv-user field="user_email" id='%%USER_ID%%']) joining Assistutor, .......

Dear Nigel,

I tried to do the registration but nothing received for the field.

Best regards,

Kelvin

Forgive me Kelvin, the correct placeholder to use is id="%%USER_USERID%%".

I just tested that and it works.
