[Pro] Menu/List w/data field appear based on selection

I would like to create a form to contact positions for an executive board. I thought of this format to try:

  1. Select the position from a menu drop down list.
  2. The position’s name appears for reference (preferably on screen and/or in the email sent)
  3. Remaining fields as usual to fill in for the user.

Is this possible in FWP or is it something I would assign in FormsToGo?

Hi Beatrice,

This is something you can do with the PHP easiForm actions.

There is a PDF that you can download from the following page:
http://www.easibase.com/freeway/freewayactions.php

This explains how to use the actions along with the basics for
building a form in Freeway, the form recipient email as per menu list
selection is something that is covered under ‘Sending form to
different recipient depending on form element option selection’ part
of the PDF.

Your server will need to be ioncube friendly to use easiFOrm and there
is a small charge for the license per domain although you can use an
many forms as you like under the same license within that domain.

Thank you! I also wanted to see if there was a way to have the position’s name appear before submitting so the person filling out the form would know who they are contacting.

For now, I will simply have a table of the positions as a reference below the form.

Could you not have the positions name in the same menu list, maybe
something like: Accounting (Julie Jones), Support (Jim Hardy) etc.

Yeah, I thought of that and may opt to do it. There is other information for each position that was typically on this page, but I think I will include it in other way/place so the Contact page can really be just the form. I have to confirm if this is acceptable to the client first though.

You can also do this using Tim’s PHP Feedback Form action. See here http://www.deltadzine.net/form2.html for an example.

I opted to add the field on the end of the title for now. I am certain the nature of the page is to make contact and it has been changed to do it via email (previously phone numbers were listed, but now removed)…

I think it is fine, but I cannot seem to get the validation process to work for ANY field. I dont know what is going wrong.

Neither will we unless we can see what you are trying to do…

Posting a link will help!

Sorry, frustrated and forgot to add the link. I am hoping to get the reCaptcha setup but the code inserted appears as text (add in FWP as HTML markup box). I have royally screwed this one up I fear…

The code you have inserted:

require_once('recaptchalib.php');
$publickey = "6Ld6cwoAAAAAAKwuBhWOH1RWWzaOVfANh75WBFnx"; // you got  
this from the signup page
echo recaptcha_get_html($publickey);

try adding PHP tags to open ‘<?php' and close '?>’ the code:

<?php
require_once('recaptchalib.php');
$publickey = "6Ld6cwoAAAAAAKwuBhWOH1RWWzaOVfANh75WBFnx"; // you got  
this from the signup page
echo recaptcha_get_html($publickey);
?>

That should sort the CAPTCHA code problem.

Made some progress - reCaptcha appears. Nothing seems to be validating for the page though.

I realized I forgot to put the page form setup (POST, contact.php) and did so on all three pages (form, success, error).

I still cannot get a single field to validate. Not even the reCaptcha. What am I missing?!

Success. Not sure what I did to actually fix it because there were many things I forgot to do! Wish I could write them down - very confusing to remember the format of the landing pages and working between FormsToGo and FWP sometimes. But, once it works, it is beautiful. Thanks for trying to help.

If anyone has a “checklist” of what to make sure to do from FWP to FTG… would love to see and add to it if I can.
