Conditional Shortcodes in Fluent Forms

Fluent Forms allows you to show or hide content dynamically based on user selections using conditional shortcodes. These shortcodes can be applied in Form Confirmations, Email Notifications, and PDF Documents, making your forms more interactive and personalized.

This article explains each available conditional shortcode and how they function within Fluent Forms.

You need the Fluent Forms Pro version to use conditional shortcodes.

How to use Conditional Shortcode #

If you want to show a message based on user input, you can use a simple shortcode like this:


Conditional shortcode 01 scaled 50120

There are three key parameters when using conditional shortcodes-

  • Field 
  • Condition
  • Value

Field  #

The field parameter is required to define which form input should be checked. You need to grab the field name and include it in the shortcode like this:


For example,  you have a radio button field and want to show a message only when the user selects “Yes”, you can write-


If the user selects “No”, a different message will appear:


Conditions #

The second parameter is Condition. You can set different types of conditions such as-

ConditionDescription
equalMatches exactly
not_equalDoes not match
greater_thanChecks if the value is more than given number
less_thanChecks if the value is less than given number
greater_or_equalChecks if the value is more than or equal to given number
less_or_equalChecks if the value is less than or equal to given numbe
starts_withChecks if text starts with a certain word
ends_withChecks if text ends with a certain word
containsChecks if text includes a word or phrase
not_containsChecks if text does NOT include a word

You need to use is=”Your Condition Here”, let’s take the first one as an example; at this stage, our shortcodes will be:


Value #

The value parameter defines what the field should be compared against. Add it using to=”Your Value Here”.

The value needs to be added like this to=”Your Value Here”.

Suppose our radio field has two values, which is ‘ABC’ and ‘XYZ’. Suppose I want to take the value if the user has selected ‘ABC’, we have to write the shortcode value in small letters so the final shortcode will be-


show value 02 50120

You can use as many conditions as you want. For example, if you want to show different messages based on user feedback:




Nested Condition #

Sometimes, you may want to check two conditions at the same time. You can do this using nested shortcodes.

You need to use the other 3 parameters (field, is, to) as mentioned earlier.

An example of a nested conditional shortcode is below –

Suppose, in addition to our earlier logic, if the user selected ‘yes’, and if he/she gave us a review greater than 2, we want to show a text to that user.

So after using the field name field=”ratings”, conditions is=”greater_than” and value to=”2″ to our nested conditional shortcode, the final shortcode will be –






That’s all about Conditional Shortcodes in Fluent Forms! These shortcodes help you personalize messages and make your forms more interactive.
