I want to use a token to display a database field, I have it setup as below;

But it renders as the below on the page;

Does anyone know of a way to use a token to display a database field?

I did enter "{{lead.Membership Package}}" on the template HTML, but it wasnt displaying the values on test users, despite the field having data in.

Your first setup must fail, as you cannot use a token within a token.

But if you put {{lead.Membership Package}} in the HTML, and this field has a value for your test member, that value should be displayed. How did you test this? You can either

  • preview your email and use "View by person"
  • send the email in a real send email flow step
  • send email as a sample and populate the Person field

    Sorry, I should have been more clear in the content.

    This is for a Landing Page, not an email.

    Ah, okay. Doesn't make that big a difference. To test, send a real email from an email sending flow step to your test person with a link to that landing page in it. After clicking the link you should see that landing page with a populated token. The email link needs to be tracked, so the LP URL after clicking the link needs to look something like this: 

    www.yourdomain.com/landingpage/?mkt_tok=verylongstring
