I have a a form in my site footer that can be accessed anywhere on site, I've added the form in the _inc.php file and added the render in the pages footer.php. However, this works well on the homepage e.g. you can submit said form and get a thank you on reload, doesnt work at all on other pages... Just lots like a fresh reload. Any thing im doing wrong here or ways to diagnose as there isn't an error log for formbuilder etc...?

Are the other pages cached?

Are you talking about ethicalby.design? Because there the form’s action points to "./" regardless of the page you’re on, so if you only process the form submission on the home page, it should always be directed there, i. e. "/".

Thanks, no it’s a client site but it has the same behaviour as the form is built by the form builder module not me 😞

so works fine on the / and /apply/ pages respectively but not the /privileges/bvlgari/

http://supercarownerscircle.nicegrp.com/

Doesn't seem to submit correctly on that page as I'm unable to see anything in the $input variable 😞

GRRRRRRRR ok found something that worked in the form settings for pages two levels deep i have to turn off Disable session tracking and CSRF protection? which must be getting in the way and disallowing everything. not sure how to get around this but might add a honey pot as replace meant... but either way I get LOTS of spam before sooooooo not great... gonna have to fob off FormBuilder at this rate

      Formbuilder Embed Options Query
      By cosmicsafari
      Hi all,
      I have the same form on multiple pages, the idea being that I can populated a hidden field with a page specific value automatically.
      I figured this should be reasonably straight forward but I can't seem to get the following to take effect.
      <?php echo $forms->embed ('my-form-name', array('hidden_field_name' => '666')); ?> No matter what I do, it never updates the default value currently set for said hidden field.
      Feels like I'm missing something really obvious?
      Any ideas?

      Generate random code in Formbuilder
      By neophron
      Hi,
      I hope, this is the right place for questions about the Formbuilder (I couldn't find in the ProField support a subsection for the Formbuilder).
      A client needs for his website a random generator of a code (as winning numbers). This generator should be placed in a simple form (name and email) and a random generated code should be visible there.
      This code, or winning number, must be stored in the db together with the name and email. And the participant must receive a confirmation email with this code.
      I know, that the Formbuilder can store and send data to the user. But what about a random generated code? Is this a hook job?
      I found this module: http://modules.processwire.com/modules/process-field-generator/ but it's not for PW 3.

      CKEditor as a Formbuilder Front End Field
      By prestoav
      Hi folks.
      I'm building a Formbuilder form to create new advert pages in a marketplace. Formbuilder is ideal for this. I need to add a description field that allows text to be added with line breaks etc. so showing a CKEditor field would be ideal (i.e. exactly like the field I'm typing into right now)!.
      Does anyone know if it's possible to add a CKEditor field to the front end presentation fo a Formbuilder field, maybe via a module or such?
      Many thanks!

      FormBuilder - send tests to test admins
      By Peter Knight
      I have a few web forms which require testing on a weekly basis and I don't want the recipients (administrators) to receive these test emails.
      What would be a good way to test approx 15 forms from the front end and have the test delivered a list of secondary administrator recipients?
      I'm thinking that I could have some kind of config file which watches for a trigger word or email and then understands that it's a test and to bypass the normal admins?
      All of the forms ask for an email address so I could setup an email such as 'testform@email.not' etc which my config file (hook?) would watch for.
      Or is there a better way to do this?
      Additionally, I have a few extra requirements...
      Forms should goto an alternative success page. This is because I don't want my test to skew my Google Analytics conversion tracking Forms would need to be tested from the front-end and not the PW admin area Any advice appreciated.
      BTW I realise this should be posted in the proper FormBuilder support forum. I am in the process of renewing my license for access to that support forum.
