Hi micker,You can use PHP in a Custom PHP action before the Email action to build custom for data that you can

then include in the email.

Hi micker,

Please check the CFv5 manual if you have a copy - I think the answer is there.

You can use Custom PHP something like this:

<?php
if ( !empty ($form-data['myvalue']) ) {
  if ( $form-data['myvalue'] == 1 ) {
    $form->data['mytext'] = 'My texte dljflmsdgjdmfgjmlfgj in body email';
. . .
?>

Then the value of mytext will be added to the form data and can be used in your email.

ok just to be sure

1 i create a custom code block
2 drag and drop in on submit event

and my code ?

exemple

<?php
if ( !empty ($form-data['extensions']) ) {
$form->data['extensions'] = $form->data['extensions'];
}else {
$form->data['extensions']="pas d'extensions";
}
?>

my user want a value in his email if $form-data['extensions'] is empty

Hi micker,

You can simplify the code a little bit:

<?php
if ( empty ($form-data['extensions']) ) {
  $form->data['extensions'] = "pas d'extensions";
}
?>

Otherwise it looks OK to me.
