Checkbox placeholders in email

I have a FormIt form which is working great however I am running into an issue regarding checkboxes.

When a user selects a checkbox in the form and then submits, the proper value appears in the confirmation email that I have set up with FormIt AutoResponder. However, if a user does not select a checkbox, the placeholder is then sent in the email. Below is an excerpt from the email that the form sends:



If a user selects the "Unlimited Translation" checkbox, the value returned is "Yes" but I'd like to set a default value in the event that the user does not select that checkbox.

Any suggestions?

I believe that with a post-hook, you can modify any of the form field values that are inserted into the mailing tpl.

I'm not all that familiar with post-hooks unfortunately. I thought this would be a fairly common issue actually. It doesn't seem like FormIt has a posthook property either, I only see a prehook.

EDIT: Found this thread, would this work even though I already have an output filter on the checkboxes? (Is it possible to chain output filters?)

EDIT 2: So I added the notempty output filter into the email template and it works.



Guess I answered my own question. [ed. note: fegul last edited this post 11 years, 2 months ago.]

In FormIt, postHooks are just called "hooks"

Yes, most output modifiers can be chained.
