[Resolved] How to use submitted post form data as success page view filter parameters

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a form that captures various parameters regarding visitor sightings of wildlife. On successful submission, I would like to pass this data to another 'thanks for your submission' page with a custom view. Presumably this data would be passed as http link parameters. It will be somehow used in the filters on the success page view, so the visitor can see a list of posts relevant to their submitted information.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
I'm hoping you can help me find documentation on passing parameters.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
Can you please show me examples?

What is the link to your site?
There's nothing to see yet, but it's hidden link

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You can use the Toolset Form hook "cred_success_redirect" and you can redirect user to your desired link with URL params.

More info:

Thanks Minesh!

The redirect to the view page works. I have included an argument for the post_id that was submitted. It has the format .../page-with-view/?post-id=12345&cred_referrer_form_id=54321

Next I built a view and added it to the redirect page via its shortcode.

On arrival to the redirect page, is there a way to extract the post_id argument, look-up a custom taxonomy value from the post_id, then use this as a filter for the view in the page?

You can use the view's filter hook "wpv_filter_query" where you can add/remove the query filter arguments on fly.
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views-filters/#wpv_filter_query

For example:
- You can add the above code to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/

add_filter( 'wpv_filter_query', 'func_filter_by_current_post_id_terms', 10, 3 );
 function func_filter_by_current_post_id_terms( $query_args, $setting,$view_id ) {

    if($view_id == 99999) {

         //// adjust original taxonomy slug here
        $taxonomy = 'taxonomy-slug' ;  
          
        /// getting the post id from URL param
        $post_id = $_REQUEST['post-id'];

        $assigned_terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, $taxonomy , array('fields'=>'slugs'));
  
        $query_args['tax_query'][] = array( 
             array(
            'taxonomy' => $taxonomy,
            'field' => 'slug',
            'terms' =>  $assigned_terms ,
            'operator' => 'IN'
        ));
     
    }
    return $query_args;
}

Where:
- Please replace 99999 with your original view ID
- please adjust the filter code if required as per your requirement
