Problems w/feedback form module

Post by tmeyer45458 »

I've created a contact form using FeedbackForm version 0.9.15.  To handle the form input I have created a field titled "subject" that uses a pulldown menu which enables users to email their comments to diff email boxes based on the pulldown menu selection.

The problem is that the value for the pulldown menu appears as the varialbe ($subject) in the email instead of "request a quote", "request a catalogue", or "Feedback and Suggestions".

Typically that wouldn't be a problem, but since I pull email from all of the email boxes into one it will become difficult (in some cases) to determine the request.

How can I make it so the value of the pulldown menu is displayed in the email...as opposed to just the varialbe?

Thanks

I'm having an issue with this as well. 

When the email is received the 'option' chosen in the dropdown is not displayed, but the destination email address is shown to the user instead...Does anyone know how I can get the option chosen displayed in the email instead of the destination address?

Thanks!

Warning: FeedbackForm is discontinued, use FormBuilder module (search in Development link)

Sorry, I am using FormBuilder, I should have been more clear.  I just found this old post from tmeyer45458 that was the most related to my issue, and thought that I would piggy-back on it.

I'm also having this issue (with Form Builder). The instructions within the Variables for Template read:
Fields that have multiple values may also be accessed via the smarty value of $fieldname_array or $fld_#_array.
but I'm unable to figure out how to code that kind of request so that the Selection Subject field displays in the sent email instead of the Destination Email Address.
