Need entry id for post-insert custom hook operation
Started 16 years ago by knitzsche | 4 posts |

Hi,
I would like to get hold of the entry id to save in another table when a form entry has been submitted and has been successfully inserted into the database.
It seems like it would be simple enough, but I looked at the code, and am not entirely certain. Is there a session variable I can use? It doesn't seem to be available in the table_data array that is passed to the post_insert function.
Thanks

Are you still using version 1.2 ?
Hooks has been removed since version 2.If so, you can access the $record_insert_id variable and pass it to your hook.

Actually, I am using version 2 and put back the hooks as you had suggested in another thread cause I need it.
The record_insert_id turns out to be the id that gets put in the review table because I have review option turned on. So I moved the call to the hook from the process_form function to the commit_form_review function where the new_record_id is defined, but am having problems because the function_exists call is coming back false and the custom hook is not being called.
Hoping there is a soln.
Thanks
