When choosing "hidden field" and that hidden field is multiple choice, none of the selections show up when doing logic.</p> <p>Here is a screenshot:</p> <p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/NW9oz0y.png" /> </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24471 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 22:14:31 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24471@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>This works as expected now. Thanks Yuniar! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24470 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 21:22:57 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24470@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Thanks Yuniar for the quick fix. I'll apply this fix here shortly and report back to make sure it's working appropriately. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24469 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 15:31:14 +0000 yuniar 24469@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for reporting this. I've been investigating this and it's a bug indeed. </p> <p>Apparently, all fields that being set to "hidden" (using the field property) aren't getting the correct merge tag value when being sent using the "Send Form Data to Another Website" option.</p> <p>Fortunately the fix is quite simple, you only need to edit your "machform/includes/helper-functions.php" file.<br /> Search around line 297 for this code:</p> <pre><code>$template_data_options[&#39;target_is_admin&#39;] = false;</code></pre> <p>change the above code to become:</p> <pre><code>$template_data_options[&#39;target_is_admin&#39;] = true;</code></pre> <p>That should fix the issue.<br /> We'll include this fix into our next update. Thanks and sorry for the trouble! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24468 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 06:59:17 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24468@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Yes, the work around that I have found is create regular fields and use the class "hidden" and that works as expected. Hoping the team here can find a quick fix for this, all of our forms are now not working as expected since most recent update. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24467 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 06:19:46 +0000 timcov 24467@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I've been struggling with the same issue - but hadn't spotted the hidden field connection! I can confirm when those fields are made visible on my form it now passes the data correctly.<br /> Many Thanks for the post celsiusmarketing - at least I can try to work around it now using the hidden css for now. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24466 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 04:36:29 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24466@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>No hidden fields are passing values, instead just merge tag.</p> <p>Example:</p> <p>testing: {element_5}</p> <p>The default value is set to "testing" but it doesn't post "testing" only the merge field tag. I also added value with url parameter to the hidden field and it still doesn't work properly. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24465 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 04:32:13 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24465@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I just received this error message when testing:</p> <p>Error Sending Webhooks! Error Code: (503)string(484) " " </p> <p>I switched the field from hidden to visible and now i get this. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24464 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 04:30:59 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24464@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I just tested this again with a fresh form and this bug is only effecting "hidden" fields. If you use a hidden field to collect data, it is only sending the merge field tag only and not the actual value.</p> <p><a href="http://requestb.in/1amt9p11?inspect" rel="nofollow">http://requestb.in/1amt9p11?inspect</a> </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-form-data-to-url-bug#post-24463 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 04:23:38 +0000 celsiusmarketing 24463@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Having an issue with hidden fields sending merge field tag instead of blank / default values with "send form data to URL." </p> <p>Here is a request bin I created so you can see how this is not working as expected.</p> <p><a href="http://requestb.in/rltbvyrl?inspect" rel="nofollow">http://requestb.in/rltbvyrl?inspect</a></p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>-Derek </p>
