Field not showing in email (See more user questions)
Hi
I discovered what was causing your problem.
You didn't put the "Tour" field in the $field_order_keys array in the
script. You have this:
$field_order_keys =
array('Name_first','Name_last','email','attendees','traveling_companions','address_1','City','State','Zip','phone_home',
'phone_work','bed','casetype','rental','bike_road','rider_height','rider_inseam','rider_gender','rider_job','rider_diet','rider_comments');
Should be this:
$field_order_keys =
array('Tour','Name_first','Name_last','email','attendees','traveling_companions','address_1','City','State','Zip','phone_home',
'phone_work','bed','casetype','rental','bike_road','rider_height','rider_inseam','rider_gender','rider_job','rider_diet','rider_comments');
If you tried it initially with a stock script, you would have got the "Tour"
field showing. Better to get the thing working first, before getting fancy.
If you use a template for the email (NOT to be confused with a template for
the "thank you" message), you don't need to use the $sort_fields option.
I noticed in your script, you had custom HTML at the bottom and you also
enabled the option to use the HTML "thank you message" template. You can't
do both. The HTML you coded into the script will be ignored. Better to
delete it if you are using a template for the "thank you" message (NOT to be
confused with a template for the email).
That's you fixed. Turned out to be a very straight-forward issue but I have
to say I struggled to understand you and thought it was a more complex
issue. In this case you have a form page, a script and a "thank you
message" template. That's the best terminology to use with me!
Best wishes.

Hi Charles, here you go.
I am not using a thank you page but I think I am using the thank you page as
the confirmation page.
The user goes directly to PayPal or back to the original form if they need
to edit it. I should probably allow them to just submit data.
I do get all of the other values returned perfectly which is very cool BTW.
Thanks.
Best,
