Hi

on submit message I wrote this:

Your responses were successfully submitted. Thank you!
[e2pdf-view id="[26]" dataset="[id]"]

and tried also:
download: [e2pdf-download id="[26]"]

where 26 is the id of radio button field and should all option evaluate to "1" but I get only the message no pdf.

Hi,

You can try to use:

[e2pdf-download id="[26 show=value]"]
[e2pdf-view id="[26 show=value]"]

However if you are using Formidable Forms PRO it's highly recommended to use Conditional Statements as:

[if 26 show=value equals="1"][e2pdf-download id="1"][/if 26]
[if 26 show=value equals="2"][e2pdf-download id="2"][/if 26]

P.S. You are using shortcodes inside "Success Message" so dataset="[id]" is not mandatory.

We remain at your service.

We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!

[26 show="value"] must output exactly the separate "value" regarding Formidable Forms documentation:

We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!

I found the problem I should not use " " with value correct syntax is

[e2pdf-view id="[26 show=value]"]
