 * Hiya,
 * I get another call of an client of mine that the reciever don’t an overview for
   his or her sign-up for an plan and other personal stuff.
 * I’ve looked up right away in the backend of the client’s site and troubleshoot
   it.
 * Normally it worked perfectly fine with the tag {{current_user}} to the reciever
   with an overview for his or her sign-up for an plan and other personal stuff.
   Then I changed the tag {{E-mail}} and now it worked fine after I tested and I
   see now green checks that the sending of these mails worked all fine.
 * I’m not sure it is an bug or not re: {{current_user}}.
 * _Due GDPR laws I can’t give the link to the client’s site. _
 * Thanks in advance!
 * Best regards,
    Bas

 * Can you please confirm if you are talking about “User Auto Reply” notification?

 * Hi [@easyregistrationforms](https://wordpress.org/support/users/easyregistrationforms/)
 * Sorry for late reply. Yes, I can confirm that I am referring about ¨User Auto
   Reply¨ notification.
 * It worked before, but not now. That´s why I did {{E-mail}} and worked perfectly.
   Maybe I misunderstood, but it´s for me logical that I use {{current_user}} haha.
 * Thanks,
    Bas

 * Hello [@basz85](https://wordpress.org/support/users/basz85/),
 * {{current_user}} tag will only work if the user submits the form in a logged-
   in state. It won’t work if the user is not logged into the system. Please check
   and let us know.
