So, I set this up using the basic contact form example as a guide... everything seems to be working as expected, except for my email chunk. I receive the email after submitting, but the placeholders didn’t work. There’s no content inserted just [[+placeholder]] code.
For example, this is what my email chunk code is, and this is exactly what shows up in my email... instead of placing the placeholders with the actual form data.
[[+name]] ([[+email]]) Wrote:
Phone: [[+phone]]
Fax: [[+fax]]
Company: [[+company]]
Address: [[+street]]
[[+City]], [[+state]] [[+zip]]
Subject: [[+subject]]
Services Requested: [[+services]]
Date(s) of Event: [[+event-date]]
[[+message]]
Here’s my snippet call:
[[!FormIt?
&hooks=`recaptcha,spam,email,redirect`
&emailTpl=`contact-email-notification`
&emailTo=`my email`
&emailSubject=`Contact Form Submission`
&redirectTo=`20`
&validate=`name:required,
email:email:required,
subject:required,
message:required:stripTags,
event-date:required`
]]
And here’s my form:
<form action="[[~[[*id]]]]" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="nospam:blank" value="" />
<p>* Required Fields</p>
<table width="100%">

</td>

</table>
</form>
Any ideas? Did I make an obvious beginners mistake somewhere?
I can’t seem to find any instructions or documentation anywhere telling me where to start, how to add it, etc.. All I can see is the FormIt snippits which have a bunch of code in it that I can’t make heads or tails of.
