Can you detect Admin > Entries-mode v's Email notification mode?

[katw]

I want to change the html code wrapped around the values submitted for the email field, file upload field and multi-select checkbox fields.

I have found the hook “quform_get_value_html_X_X” but as the description says this hook is used for both notifications and entry view.

I want them styled differently not the same.

Q1. Is there a way to apply changes using this hook to a specific context (ie entry-view v’s notification)?

Q1-B. Is there a switch or flag I can query to detect the mode and do custom formatting for each?

My idea:

add_filter('quform_get_value_html_1_5', function ($value, Quform_Element_Field $element, Quform_Form $form) {

    if ($isEntryView) {
        /* leave as formatted with mailto hyperlink */
    } else {
       /* reformat no emailhyperlink */
         return '<span style="color:blue;">' . $form->getValue('quform_1_5') . '</span>';
    }
}, 10, 3);

Q2. Does the custom code always have to return a value or will underlying code become the default if custom code returns nothing?

In my example above I don’t return anything for entry-view as I am happy with normal output given.

Q3. Using the getValue() function to access the raw field value, do I have to ‘escape’ the field contents like you did in getValueHTML before using it? (Quform::escape($fielddata))

Which environmental value would HTML Email notifications use?

[katw]

A small request.

Could you in next release add class names to the html lists you auto generate for notifications for multi-select, checkbox and file elements.

I.E Change the getValueHtml() function to add a CLASS name. A different one for files, checkbox and multi-select elements as styling may need to be different.

Using advanced selectors in email html is not possible. The ideal solution is a custom setting where we can define the custom inline style we want attached to the UL and another for the LI elements.

You would then insert a style=”<our code>” to the UL, and the other style code to each LI

Give it thought.
