Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Goal: to populate three fields(name,phone,email) with values from a referenced node(nodeA) when the new node(nodeB) is created.
I've been able to get the name and phone values populated fine but when I try to populate the email field I get:
"[referenced_node:field_email-raw]" is not a valid email address
The node reference does have a valid email value in the 'field_email' field, and I've also tried using the token: [referenced_node:field_email-formatted] with the same results
any pointers on what I'm doing wrong?

Comment #3
jday CreditAttribution: jday commentedare you talking about the mimemail module or is there another email module?
I just ended up using node-reference to share info between related nodes.

Nodereference works great with rules. And, it solves your issue here?

julia.rs CreditAttribution: julia.rs commentedI know this is old, but this is the exact issue I'm having. Unfortunately, my problem can't be solved with nodereference.
After a user is updated, I want to populate a content profile node with the user's current email address. Not every node of the content profile type has a user, though, so my understanding is nodereference can't help (because then the email field for profiles without users would be set to the admin email).
Everything works great -- except that when I use the [author:mail] token, it tells me it's not a valid email address, just as above.
Help?

"[author-mail]" is not a valid email address
any thoughts on this? Looks like it's been awhile since anyone has looked at it...
