hi
at chronoforms V4 i had a DB Record Loader, and a Show html Action (with Curly brackets replacer).
i also have a Header Text field with "Thank you {name}" inside. (that {name} was replaced by the DB value)
and a hidden field with {email} inside (that {email} was also replaced by the DB value)

I try to rebuild this at chronoforms V5, because not everything exist, i cant rebuild it 1x1.

this is what i use at V5:
a DB Read and a HTML (Render Form) Action
a Hidden Field and a Custom Field

DB load works, and Hidden Field works too. but Custom Field didnt work like i wish.
the curly brackets {name} is not replaced by the DB-Value (when i add a hidden field with {name} is replaced correct)

is there a "easy way" to use curly brackets at Custom Field?
or am i forced to use this instead: <?php echo $form->data['name'] ?>

Hi grafik,

You can use a "custom" element, the curly bracket syntax should be replaced, if the HTML action is after the "db read".

:( unfortunately it does not work for me

i had DB Read at position 7, folowed by HTML (Render Form) at position 8 (at Setup Tab)

curly bracket where not replaced at Custom Field (at Designer Tab)
no matter where it is. even if Hidden field below or above use a same value that is replaced correct

if i had a Custom Code after Render Form with same content (like Custom Field) values where replaced correct
