In this section, you will find the options for building your Combine Fields tool. Follow along in your PlusThis app, or by viewing the numbered step in the screenshots.

1

Text (optional)

The first text field is best used as a greeting (i. E.. Hello/Dear). Here is where you will type in your greeting or salutation (or any word you would like before the combined fields). If you don’t want a greeting like this, leave this first text field blank.
2

Always include this text (drop-down)

Then select the conditions when the previous text field will appear.
3

None - No field selected (drop-down)

Select or create the first field you would like to combine.  
If you do not have a field created already, you will need to go into your ActiveCampaign account to create the field, and then come back to PlusThis and create this tool.
4

Text (optional)

Type any static text that you would like to appear if any. If you are combining two names, it would be ideal to put a space between the first and second combined field.
5

Always include this text (drop-down)

Select from the next dropdown if the appearance of the previous static text field will be conditional, and what the conditions are or if it will always be included
6

None - No field selected (drop-down)

Add or select from the drop down the second field you would like combined.
7

Text (optional)

If you would like any static text (even spaces) please enter the text into the text field
8

Always include this text (drop-down)

Select from the next dropdown if the appearance of the previous static text entered will be conditional, and what the conditions are or if it will always be included.

Preview

Take a look at the preview and make sure that you’re happy with the way it looks. You may need to add a space in a static text area, or you may need to remove something. Play around with the values in the static text areas to get the preview the way you want it. 
10

Where would you like to put the combined text?

Select or Create from the dropdown the field you would like the above preview stored in.
11

Name Tool

Enter a name for your tool in this field. The name is solely for use inside of PlusThis, and will not be visible to customers.
