fiProcessArrays concatenates array values into strings so that they can be used in an email report.

Some (later?) versions of FormIt handle array values already, but fiProcessArrays can be useful if you need extra customization or if have any trouble with multiple checkboxes not showing up in fiGenerateReport.

To use, call the fiGenerateReport hook before the hooks that would use the converted values (such as "fiGenerateReport" and/or "email").

[[!FormIt?
    &hooks=`math,spam,fiProcessArrays,fiGenerateReport,email,redirect`
    ...
    &figrExcludedFields=`op1,op2,operator,math`
]]
