   Hi,

   Here is my situation. I'm using machform to enable to users to submit a registration form. My question is how do I display a confirmation number (like an order number) along with the success message. Also is there a way to start the numbering from, say 6000 instead of starting from 1?

   I hope I'm not confusing. Any help will be greatly apprecaited

   Hi ...

   It's possible to show confirmation number with adding a session on your confirmation number element. Try to follow this post

   For numbering, can you tell me how you do it for now ? for this case maybe you can consider to use auto number logic but you have to make some modification to your machform files.

   Yes I was able to display the entry number on the success page. Now the numbering is very simple (1, 2, 3, etc.) Instead what I would like to do is start the numbering from 10,000. How do I do that?

   If you want to show inserted data ID from 1000. You can add the session variable with 1000 in post-functions.php file on line 1030.

   //retrieve the id from last inserted data
   if ($form_id == '1') {
      $_SESSION['form_element_data'] = $record_insert_id+1000;
   }

   In this example, how do I make it instead of "1000" make 1 appear as "001"?

   Also what is the line of code where I'm going to put "//retrieve the id from last inserted data" after? I get errors when I update my code, I think my line numbers are not accurate with your reference.

   Thanks!

   Sorry for the delay, you can put the code after this line :

   $record_insert_id = mysql_insert_id();

   Simply search for that code in post-function.php and I think you'll found it around line 1013 ~ 1020.

   Anyway to change the entry id to '001' format, you can change the code to be like this :

   //retrieve the id from last inserted data
   if ($form_id == '1') {
      $_SESSION['form_element_data'] = str_pad($record_insert_id,4,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
   }
