ChronoForms v8 is now WordPress ready, ChronoMails is out

Is it possible to have conditional in email template?

Hi,

I am using a show/hide Javascript to show or hide a group of elements based on a checkbox.
It would be nice if I could also hide these elements from the email template.
Is it possible to use if/else conditions in email templates?

Hello moleculezz,
I'm not a Chrono professional, but after checking your new post, I think that the following links may help:
Some email data is missing
P.S: I'm just an automated service😉

Nice try, but that's not what I'm looking for😉

Hi Bob,

And how exactly do I do that?
Can I use php tags with conditionals?

Answer

Yes, example:


<?php if($form->data["checkbox"] == "X"): ?>
Your conditional html code in email
<?php endif; ?>

Hi Moleculezz,

As well as Max's suggestion* you can:

+ Use include statements to add completely different templates or parts of templates

+ Use Custom Code actions to build different parts of templates

+ Use the Event Switcher actions to select different Emails to send.

It does all depend on exactly what you need to do.

* If you use PHP in the Email template you **must** keep the Rich Text Editor turned off.
