    Hello again,

    in the front-end submission form I’ve got name and email from advanced fields, and those are automatically populated with the logged-in users’ info. We also need to collect an additional email address (contact person) which may or may not be the event submitter. I’ve tried setting up both another Email and just a plain input field for the email address. Every other field prints ok, but not the email.

        <h3>With any questions related to this event, please contact:</h3>
    

    <?php if ( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'contact_name', true ) ) : ?> <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'contact_name', true ); ?> <?php endif; ?> <?php if ( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'contact_email', true ) ) : ?> "> <?php get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'contact_email', true ); ?> <?php endif; ?>

    Tried renaming the contact_email field to email_address in case the name clashes with something else, but no luck. What am I not seeing here?

    Thanks!

    You have

    <?php get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'contact_email', true ); ?>
    

    instead of

    <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'contact_email', true ); ?>
    

    🙂

    So embarrassing, I clearly need a break.

    Thank you!!!
