Custom post type to work with html auto reply

I'm trying to setup a custom post type for Landing Pages in WordPress, including the option to customize the text for the html auto response email.

I am able to call the post meta on a different page using using the following loop, but I can't figure out how to put it in a format that works in the html auto response.

Is it possible to turn the following loop into this ". $_POST['content'] ." or something more appropriate? 

<?php
$args = array( 'post_type' => 'landing_pages');
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post();
echo esc_html( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'landing_pages_short_description', true ) );
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
?>

Here is the html auto response

<?php

if(!empty($_POST['rev_captcha'])) {
    die('Nice try robot. Nothing for you here.');
}

$autoResponse = true;
$autoResponseSubject = "Brand Name: A copy of your message";
$autoResponseMessage = "<html>
<head>
    <title>Brand Name: A copy of your message</title>
</head>
<body>

Solution

  • on the file single-landing_page.php create a hidden form field 

          <input type="hidden" name="custom_postmeta" value="<?php echo esc_html( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'landing_pages_short_description', true ) ); ?>" />

    then on the other file as you get all other fields you can get this hidden field too like 

           $custompostmeta =   $_POST['custom_postmeta'];

    then concatinate this $custompostmeta variable within your html table Hope it will work
