Add parameter to advanced embed code

    Hi,

    I found the topic about uri parameters in machform and it is very understandable. Super component and super support.

    However I have some UTF problems in the uri parameters and I want to solve it with advanced php embed code (till now I never used normal view of the form - only embed).

    It is easy for me to encode and decode the uri parameters in php. But for doing that I need to easily just add new parameters.

    So, code will be like this:

    <?php
    require("/pathtomachform/machform.php");
    $mf_param['form_id'] = XXX;
    $mf_param['base_path'] = 'basepath';

    // add new parameter
    $mf_param['email'] = 'clientemail';

    display_machform($mf_param);
    ?>

    Where exactly I need to change the code in MachForm component to use new parameter (if exist) in the form email field?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Hmmm .. do you mean, you need to pass the parameter to email field from advance code ? If so, it's easier to use the SESSION variable for this. First you need to add session variable to your advance embed code like this

    <?php
    session_start();
    require("/pathtomachform/machform.php");
    $mf_param['form_id'] = XXX;
    $mf_param['base_path'] = 'basepath';
    
    // add new parameter
    //$mf_param['email'] = 'clientemail';
    $_SESSION['email_session'] = 'clientemail';
    
    display_machform($mf_param);
    ?>

    then edit "view-functions.php" and go to line 208, you'll find this code :

    $element_markup = <<<EOT

    put these code above that line

    if (!empty($_SESSION['email_session']) &&  empty($element->populated_value['element_'.$element->id]['default_value'])) {
    	$element->default_value = $_SESSION['email_session'];
    }
