    I would like to send an autoresponder email the each person that make a purchase using my form. The problem is I would like to send it 2 days before their event date. How can I make that change?

    I tried this as you instructed but in the Summary filled it doesn't say "Date Customer" Will be notified. How do I get that?

    Hi,

    You can create a hidden date field to your form underneath the event field.
    (Make it hidden so that your users will not see it on the form)

    Then you can select the field to the Summary when creating the condition.

    And once you have created the condition, you can select this field as the date when to send the autoresponder.
