[Résolu] Unable to use wpv-user shortcode as a placeholder in messages

I am creating a user with the CRED form and then sending a notification to the user about registration. I am using a few views shortcodes to pass information in the email and all works fine except for the user's first name and user's last name.

What could I be missing?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Toolset Forms offers the placeholders that you should use to display the user first name and last name.

For example:

%%USER_FIRST_NAME%%

And

 %%USER_LAST_NAME%%

Minesh,

I understand the placeholders. My question is why would the shortcode not work when I created a user using the cred form? And if does not work, then why is that option even there on the form?

Regards,
Himanshu

As suggested, either you should go with the placeholders I shared.

if you insist to go with shortcode, following should work:

[wpv-user field="user_firstname" id="%%USER_USERID%%"]

And

[wpv-user field="user_lastname" id="%%USER_USERID%%"]

As when form is submitted there will be no User ID available, that is why we need to use placeholder.
