Hi
I'm a good guy and I'm very happy. I create different fields including a field in which I put a datatable shortcode and it works fine. I did the same thing with short form 7 contact code and I only have one valid field on the different forms. Why does it work partially?
On the screenshot, the form on the left is the short code type, the one on the right is inserted via elementor
hi shane
the 2 forms are made with contact form 7. it is the same form. The one on the left is the result of a short code insert into a text field with Type. The right one is the same form insert with elementor.
I need to create different forms for each custom post type, hence the need to use a custom field.
Would you mind providing me with access to the page so that I can check this issue for you ?
Why use contact form 7 instead of Toolset forms that allows you to create your form with the custom fields natively. I'm not sure custom fields work with Contact form 7.
Toolset forms is Perfect for this actually as you can make contact forms with it.
What you need to do is to create a CPT called Contacts, add your custom fields to Contacts . Essentially you will need a field for their email name etc.
Then all you need to do is generate a form in Toolset forms for that Contacts CPT. Then you can setup the notification settings where you can send the user who create the message a copy and then send an email to an administrator.
Also all the messages will be logged in the Contacts CPT.
Please let me know if this is clear of if you want some assistance setting this up. Toolset forms is mainly for creating Posts but with its notifications settings it can be used to create a contact form as well.
Hello
Thank you
Very interesting!
From your explanations it does not seem too complicated.
it also manages conditional logics?
please could you send me the link to the tutorials pages?
What about the Data Protection Regulation, here, in France we must collect the consent of a customer when he sends us a message and store his answer. have you heard about this? does it seem possible to you?
Once I have created my different forms, is it possible to insert a "shortcode" in a field of type to be able to display a different form by category of post?
And would it be possible to recover these contacts to export them to solutions like mailchimp?
thank you for your answers and your responsiveness.
Not sure what you mean by inserting shortcode in a field. Is it that you want to add a default value to a field using a shortcode ? If so then yes.
Their emails will be stored in the posts themselves but you wouldn't be able to do this. A custom solution would be required to pull the emails from the posts.
Finally you can add a simple checkbox to the form that is required so that they can give consent to the data that is provided.
What do you mean by a custom solution to export emails?
Regarding the shortcode. To be more specific I have created a custom post type for our real estate operations that contains a number of custom fields. I wanted to know if I could create a contact form field and assign a value or a data or an identifier so that each real estate operation can have its own form? tell me if it's clearer?
