  • Issue description: Calculator call to action record the calculator values

  • Link to the page with the widget in question: Untitled Calculator | Elfsight

  • I’m creating a calculator that lets prospective teams build a custom uniform package and see pricing estimates. When the coach clicks to “get started”, is there a way to capture the package settings (e.g. player count, package selected, sport, cost estimate, add-ons, etc.) so we will know what they had in mind when they submit the lead?

Hi @Scott_GrindSW welcome to community,

you must share your widget link. We do not have access to a dashboard

Hi there and welcome aboard, @Scott_GrindSW :waving_hand:

You’d like to pull the calculation inputs to the submissions, right?

To pull them, [calculation-inputs] mail-tag should be added to the Message field in the Notify Me section:

As far as I see, this mail-tag is added to the Message field and the calculation inputs appear in the submission:

Could you please double-check it?

If I misunderstood your idea, please describe it in more detail :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @Max

I was reading the article on using forms to capture the details and had switch to “Open Form”, but we want to use “Open Link”. Unfortunately, our website already has an embedded lead generation form that we want the call to action to link to, but ideally would like to still have the calculator results send to email when the CTA button is selected when there is no form, is that possible?

Ah, I got what you mean!

Unfortunately, there is no way to pull the calculation inputs using the Open Link option. It’s possible with the Form feature only

I hope this explains things.

If you have any questions left, we’re always here to help :slightly_smiling_face:
