Hi I have a problem where a variable on a form is not showing in the email sent on submission.
Can you please help me with this?
The email recipient is set as {user:email} and an email is sent showing all form fields except one called Reference.
The reference is generated like this:
$Reference = $date .$SiteID;
$this->set("EmailReference", $Reference);
On 'page2' I have some code that submits to the database and displays the Reference number. The reference is clearly displayed in the form however it 's value is not included in the email but the empty field is.
Email in settings looks like this:
<?php
echo {$form->data['reference']};
echo {$EmailReference};
//echo '<br>';
?>
Thank you for contacting {site:title}! Our specialists will contact you at the soonest opportunity.

In the meantime, we have received the following details from you:
<br><br>
{email_content}
I have included variables in the top to try and show the variable but nothing. Ideally i'd like it to be part of the {email_content}

if you want it to be part of the {email_content} then use the "Alternative data" behavior of the field to override the field value, or set the variables with PHP action then use {var:var_name}
