    I would like to be able to collect the email addresses of people the click on the ‘Send Enquiry’ button so that I can follow-up with them about their experience with the businesses that they enquired about. I would like to send them an email (or better, add them to an email drip campaign on MailChimp) that encourages them to write reviews of businesses they engage with. This is a core part of a business plan.

    I’ve checked the database of a site running GeoDirectory, and the only reference to the email address I can see is in post type postman_sent_mail.

    Is there any way to collect these addresses other than copying and pasting from the content of an email?

    The site I’m hoping to do this with will be running GD version 2.

    Upgrade to GDV2 and use the Ninja Forms integration and each form response will be saved on your site.

    Thank you, I will try that.

    I don’t suppose it’s possible to do this with Formidable Forms? The site already uses that extensively.

    Not out of the box, no.

    Thank you, Alex.

    I created a new discussion this morning but realised that if that gets solved, it would enable Formidable Integration for collecting email addresses, and with a Formidable Plugin such as Formidable-Mailchimp they could be added to a mailing list directly. The new thread is about form views, but it could equally be used to add an actual form.
