If you would like to send an email to the person after they sign, you enable that in dashboard > SpeakOut Pro > Petitions > edit the petition > petitions options tab – this is only available in the Pro version.
When you are creating the email content, it is possible to include some user input fields in the email. You will find a list of available fields under the field when editing the content.
The current fields that can be included are
%honorific%%first_name%%last_name%%petition_title%
They are all sanitized using the PHP strip_tags() function to prevent users being sent code, malicious or otherwise.
IMPORTANT: If you are including these fields in the email, make the honorific, first name and last name required fields otherwise if they aren’t filled out by the user, they will be empty and it may look odd. Imagine the example below if any of them are empty.
Example: Dear %honorific% Steve Smith, Thanks for signing our petition “We Love SpeakOut!”.
