How to print only the first name from the fullname field in an email notification?

    Hi there,

    How can I view my support history? I've asked this question before but I can't find the emailed response.

    The question again is about automated email response and setting it up so it just goes to someone's first name - currently the field is {yourName}

    I would like the email to be addressed to their first name as my clients are well known to me - but I need to collect both first and last name on the form

    Thanks,

    Gabrielle.

    Please use {yourName:first}, if you only want to print the first name. Just to let you know, if you want to print only the last name, then it would be {yourName:last}.

    Thanks for this!
    I set up email conditions for this same form under the free trial class options but it’s not exactly right as yet.
    If you tick guitar group/singing group/both guitar and singing, I have set up a conditional email but currently they’re still receiving the general auto responder as well.
    How do I cancel that out, so they’ll just receive the free trial autoresponder?
    In other words “unable to attend..” tick box should only receive the general auto responder.
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards.
    Gabrielle.
