Express Form: How to add Display Text to notification email?

Permalink
The "Display Text" field is not included in the notification email. Is there a way to add it by modifying the "/application/mail/block_express_form_submission.php" file?

Hello,
Add this to the mail template and it should do the trick
$controls = $entity->getDefaultViewForm()->getControls();
foreach ($controls as $control) {
    if ($control instanceof \Concrete\Core\Entity\Express\Control\TextControl) {
        $submittedData .= $control->getHeadline() . ":\r\n";
        $submittedData .= $control->getBody() . "\r\n\r\n";
    }
}

That works to some extent but that only adds the "Display Text" fields without the other normal fields. It looks like `$controls = $entity->getDefaultViewForm()->getControls();` only retrieves the Display Texts. I am wanting to include all the fields as it appears on the form like shown below:

Section A
Personal Details
Name: John Doe
DOB: 12/12/1955
Gender: Male
Section B
Contact Details
Contact Number: 112233
Address: 123 Test Street
Email: jd@testtest.com

Is this possible?

Yes, the idea was to add that code to what was already there not to replace it.

So the whole code is this:
<?php
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die("Access Denied.");
$formDisplayUrl = URL::to('/dashboard/reports/forms', 'view', $entity->getEntityResultsNodeId());
$subject = t('Website Form Submission – %s', $formName);
$submittedData = '';
$controls = $entity->getDefaultViewForm()->getControls();
foreach ($controls as $control) {
    if ($control instanceof \Concrete\Core\Entity\Express\Control\TextControl) {
        $submittedData .= $control->getHeadline() . ":\r\n";
        $submittedData .= $control->getBody() . "\r\n\r\n";
    }
}
foreach ($attributes as $value) {
    if ("image_file" != $value->getAttributeTypeObject()->getAttributeTypeHandle() || ($dataSaveEnabled && "image_file" == $value->getAttributeTypeObject()->getAttributeTypeHandle())) {
        $submittedData .= $value->getAttributeKey()->getAttributeKeyDisplayName('text') . ":\r\n";

Yes that's exactly what I did and this is how the information was displayed:

Section A
Personal Details
Section B
Contact Details
Name: John Doe
DOB: 12/12/1955
Gender: Male
Contact Number: 112233
Address: 123 Test Street
Email: jd@testtest.com


It first displayed all the Display Texts, then displayed rest of the fields. I think we only need a single "foreach" loop but not sure how to get $controls and $attributes within the same foreach.

Oh you mean you want all fields, including the text ones, in the exact same order they appear on the form?

That's going to need a little thinking. I'll send you something tomorrow

Try this
<?php
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die("Access Denied.");
$formDisplayUrl = URL::to('/dashboard/reports/forms', 'view', $entity->getEntityResultsNodeId());
$subject = t('Website Form Submission – %s', $formName);
$submittedData = '';
$controls = $entity->getDefaultViewForm()->getControls();
foreach ($controls as $index => $control) {
    if ($control instanceof \Concrete\Core\Entity\Express\Control\TextControl) {
        // since the 2 arrays $controls and $attributes are in the same order
        // And the only difference is $controls contains the TextControl ones while $attributes doesn't
        // we can simply get those from $controls and insert them in $attributes at the right position
        array_splice($attributes, $index, 0, [$control]);
    }
}
foreach ($attributes as $value) {
