    Hi vampireprincess,

    Thank you for reaching out to us. I understand your concern.

    The First Name and Last Name fields have default widget field names (screenshot). Please ensure you are using the correct shortcode [mf-listing-fname] in your confirmation message. This should resolve the issue.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Regards.

    Thanks a lot for your answer! I checked, and my setup is exactly the same as yours. However, when the email arrives, it still shows ‘Dear [mf_first_name]’ instead of the actual name. Please take a look at the attached files.

    Hi vampireprincess,

    I hope you are doing fine. I understand you are using an HTML tag in the confirmation message; that’s why its not working. You should use this way,

    Dear [mf-listing-fname]

    Thank you for reaching out to us. We are delighted to acknowledge receipt of your email…

    It’ll resolve your issue. Thanks for your understanding.

    Regards.

    Hi vampireprincess,

    If you write the confirmation email without HTML tags, it should work. Could you please provide a screenshot of your confirmation email? Additionally, if possible, share your form link so we can take a closer look. This will help us provide a more accurate solution.

    Regards.

    Hi vampireprincess,

    I hope you’re doing well. For the confirmation email, please ensure that you are using it without any HTML tags to avoid any shortcode functionality issues.

    Additionally, I noticed that your field name is set as’mf-first-name’. You should use‘mf-first-name’ exactly as it is for the user name field. This should resolve the issue and work as expected.

    Regards.
