Is there any way to allow the person filling out a form to put their email in a field and then when the populated form is sent it also sends the results to themselves as well as it sending results to me?

This can be implemented by enabling the 'auto responder' option in the form properties.

I just thought that something new might have come along since 2019 to help with this.
I cannot get the autoresponder in the form layout to do this.

Sorry nothing new. But with that said what version of the software are you using?. What version of php are you using? What version of php does your server use (require). To help it is always best to provide a basic (demo) of your project the .wbs file.

There are no known issues with the auto responder functionality, so it should also work for you if configured correctly.
If you need help with this then please let me know the error so I can try to point you in the right direction.

You have specified that the input name used for auto responder is 'email'
However, the name name of the input field seems to be different "email for copy of submitted PERF form"
See this related FAQ "The auto responder option does not send the message to email entered in the form."

Also, I recommend to keep form names simple, without using spaces.
