User (multi-select) field not evaluated in confiForms email macro body

[Ralf Weidauer]

I want to send emails displaying the user names of a multi-select user field in confiForms.

I think I use exactly the (very simple) way explained on

How to reference a multi-select user values in IFTTT macro body 

Yet, when f.e. I enter three users the message I receive is

   $u.username $u.username $u.username

See storage format below.

<ac:structured-macro ac:name="confiform" ac:schema-version="1" ac:macro-id="4c557197-7092-42f6-bc5b-2d76e2958a75">

Hi @Ralf Weidauer 

It is a bit tricky, but the value is not a user field, but a custom class instance. Anyway, this way you can access it's value

#foreach ($u in $usrLst) $u.value #end

So one should not use the syntax in the documentation (link above)?

Nevertheless, thanks a lot, it serves perfectly for me (want to simplify my work by generating a powershell script to add users to AD-groups...)
