Field Description in Notification email?

Hi
Is there a way to include the field description along with the field name in my admin notification email?

You can use the filter gform_merge_tag_filter to prepend or append the $field->description to the value that is being returned within the {all_fields} merge tag.

Something like the following will at least give you a start on what may be needed:

add_filter( 'gform_merge_tag_filter', function ( $value, $merge_tag, $options, $field, $raw_value ) {
  if ( $merge_tag == 'all_fields' && $field->formId == 5 ) {
    $value .= '<br>' . $field->description;
  }
  return $value;
}, 10, 5 );

Please note that the above code is only applying the code to notifications on formId == 5 . You can remove that check to apply to all forms or change the specific form you’d like to apply this.

Thank you - and sorry for being inexperienced at this level…
Do I add this block of code before or after what I already have, or do I replace the code with this?
I’m assuming this goes on the gw-all-fields-template. Correct?

Reference Where Do I Put This Code? for how to add a PHP snippet of this sort.
