Hi there, just looking into the feasibility of something. My client has a PHP site for sending out e-cards and I was wondering if I could replicate it in WordPress using Gravity Forms. 1 There’s a custom post type ‘E-Card’ that has: > a Featured Image > a Title > an MP4 animated version of the featured image > a Form that contains the field: - Recipients Name - Recipients Email - Senders Name - Senders Email - Message - Submit Button 1. A notification email gets sent to {Recipient Email) which should include > The Featured Image > Senders Name > Recipients Name > Message > Link back to the post using a custom url with query string. - [www.mydomain.com/e-card/my-ecard/?recipientname=john&sender=james&message=happy%20birthday%20john](http://www.mydomain.com/e-card/my-ecard/?recipientname=john&sender=james&message=happy%20birthday%20john) 1. I’ll use javascript to decode the query string in the URL and show a personalised message on the post page. **To John** **Happy Birthday John** **From James** Is this possible Thanks ---

Very possible! I did something similar, using ACF on the CPT with a little JS to let the card configurator put text boxes as overlays on the image, so that the form submitter could write a message that would get placed in along with their name / relation. A couple doc links that’d help you out with it. - [customize the notification contents](https://docs.gravityforms.com/gform_notification/) - [Creating a custom merge tag](https://docs.gravityforms.com/gform_replace_merge_tags/#h-replace-a-custom-merge-tag) - [Populating dropdowns dynamically](https://docs.gravityforms.com/dynamically-populating-drop-down-or-radio-buttons-fields/) or using [Image Choices plugin]([Gravity Forms Image Choices - JetSloth](https://jetsloth.com/wordpress-plugins/gravity-forms-image-choices/) All that could be done without Gravity Flow. But some neat enhancements that you could add with it in the mix: - Approval Step or User input step to let an admin / senders manager / etc chose to add their own additional comment to the card or include a gift card / other recognition component. - Use an outgoing webhook step to store the generated card to an external service. - Setup scheduled reminder notifications in a “Remember when…” concept. Cheers, Jamie ---
