Small feature, but definitely a request that we’ve heard from many users out there. You can now use data captured by your form to determine what the reply-to address should be on form notification emails. Use the same {{ Email }} syntax you’re used to on other form settings.
Here’s an example:
Construct an email field
Remember the name of the field. In this case, it’s “Email”. Note, your name may not contain any special characters. Only letters, numbers, and - are supported in the Name field.
Set your Reply To Address
On your site’s form settings, you can use the name you specified in your form fields. For example {{ Email }} to use the field name we specified above.
Customize Reply-To Display
You can also customize the display of the reply-to field, like this:
Note - You must wrap the email address in <> syntax so email clients can parse out the email address
Voila! Here’s what customizable reply-to looks like in gmail:
Finally!!! Thank you!! @brryant if you’ve done this, I know you can make it so that we can also set up a notification to the senders using the data captured by the form!!! That would help out every webflow designer who has a form on their website! (i.e. Thank you, User. We are confirming receipt of your email. etc.)
E-mail adress shows up but wrapped with quotation marks (“persson_159@icloud.com”) and as the name i only see the <{{ name }}>.
When hitting reply, the Apple Mail app warnes me that this doesn’t seem to be a correct e-mail adress (apparently because of the quotation marks
Hey Steven, send us the link to your contact form and we’ll let you know what’s the proper setup for it :)
Eg. if you have a form with email field that you set a name of “Email Me” then your replyTo field in dashboard->form should look like this: {{ Email Me }}.
