How to target custom fields as dynamic values in Wix Emails (SOLVED)

I solved this issue by setting the automated email to trigger only on “specific forms”. When the “specific forms only” optioon is clicked (when setting up the automation) you will be able to select the dynamic values specific to that form from the dynamic values list.

Original post below:

I would like to add dynamic values to my “thank you emails”.

The user who signs into my site inputs their “Company” and their “designation”.

I want to send them a thank you email once they have registered that includes all of the info they inputted when signing up. By default I can target the dynamic values for First Name Last Name and Email, but not for the Company Field and the custom field I created called “Designation”

How do I target these extra fields that are saved in my contact list database.

I tried simply copying the element syntax
eg
${contact.Company} ; ${contact.Designation}

But this did not work…

Does anyone have any advice?

@wingcc may be able to offer some assistance here.

Do you know of a way to create an email campaign (ad hoc, not triggered or automated) that can use more dynamic values than just contact first name, contact last name, etc (even from custom fields would be great) to populate the body of the email. For example, if I want to send an email to members of my site confirming that their contact info is still accurate. I would want to show them what I have for their phone #, address, and even some custom fields. Right now I can only insert first and last name, email and website URL. I know how to do this if it is an email triggered by a logged in user but not if it is an email campaign.
#email
#emailcampaign
#dynamicvalues

I don’t consider this problem solved. Unfortunately, the only dynamic fields/values available in an Email Campaign are names, email and URL .

More are available, including my custom fields, in automations – but one Wix support agent told me there is not way to trigger an automation outside of the Wix set parameters. In other words, I can trigger a custom email on a certain date using the Automations … only using Campaigns.

As tdb7942 mentions – being able to send emails with these custom fields is so very important in order for our organization to function. Anyone know of any solutions???

Please open your own post and describe in detail, what you are trying to achive, what is your current setup and what is the issue. You can connect to this post, additionaly if needed.

Hi, was it solved?
Basically, I would also like to use
${extendedFields.custom.myvalue} inside an email referring to the contacts extendedFields

Isn’t it possible?? :worried:

Found this work around.
