[Resolved] Send CRED form values to another 3rd party website in URL

I want to send values from a form created using CRED, to a 3rd party page using URL.

My CRED form is in this page:
hidden link

In that form, the Submit button opens up a blank page that is set to redirect to the following URL of a 3rd party website:

hidden link A090906

Note that the URL contains values, eg. aQIF2017, that would be inserted into fields, eg. kod_epay, on that 3rd party page/form.

Is it possible to replace the values with data that has just been collected in our CRED form, to make the URL something like this:

hidden link from toolset field1]&amount=880.00&id_trans=[value from toolset field2]&bill_email=[value from toolset field3]&bill_desc=[value from toolset field4]

Or is there a different way of implementation? I have no control over the 3rd party page.

Hi Khairul,

Thank you for contacting Toolset support. For this you would need to use cred_submit_complete hook, check the usage example give here and inline comments:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_submit_complete

If you want to get the field value, then you would use:

 $filed_value = $_POST['field_name']; 

We also have another client who had the similar issue and was also able to solve it:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/pass-parameters-from-a-cred-form/

Other than that, this falls into pure Custom coding & custom development and it is out of support policy (https://toolset.com/toolset-support-policy/). So we recommend to contact Toolset recommended service providers to further discuss the custom approach. We have some recommended list of service providers here if you would like to take a look: https://toolset.com/consultant/

Thank you

Hi Noman

I have tried with the cred_submit_complete add_function. But I don't see any results.

Here's what I did:

- Following the link that you provided, I added the following code into my function.php file, just to try out with a simple redirecting command:

add_action('cred_submit_complete', 'my_success_action',10,2);
function my_success_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
    // if a specific form
    if ($form_data['id']==8142)
   {
        // user can overwrite everything here, eg redirection, messages displayed etc..
        // eg redirect regardless of form settings
        header('location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>');
   }
}

- After filling up the form and submitting it, I was not taken to the redirected url, but rather back to a blank form.

The sample form created is here: hidden link

Hello Khairul,

I have updated the code please use this one, and make sure to properly change field slug in the below code:

add_action('cred_submit_complete', 'my_success_action',10,2);
function my_success_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
    // Please double check form id
    if ($form_data['id']==8142)
   {
        $field1 = $field2 = '';
		if(isset($_POST['wpcf-field1-slug']))
			$field1 = $_POST['wpcf-field1-slug']; // your field slug
		
		if(isset($_POST['wpcf-field2-slug']))	
			$field2 = $_POST['wpcf-field2-slug']; // your field slug
		
		header('location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>'.$field1.'&field2='.$field2);
		exit;
   }
}

Thank you

Thanks. I used the code you provided but it didn't work. Then I modified the code and finally got it to work. The final code looks something like this:

add_action('cred_submit_complete', 'my_success_action',10,2);
function my_success_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
    // I have corrected the ID
    if ($form_data['id']==7696)
   {
        $field1 = '';
	$field2 = ''; // I just changed it this way to make me understand better
	
	if(isset($_POST['wpcf-field1-slug']))
            {                                                        //      I added this opening bracket
		$field1 = $_POST['wpcf-field1-slug'];
		};                           //     I added this closing bracket and the semi-colon        
	if(isset($_POST['wpcf-field2-slug']))
            {
		$field2 = $_POST['wpcf-field2-slug'];
		}; 
	
        header('location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>'.$field1.'&field2='.$field2.'');     // I added the necessary apostrophe(s)  
 exit;
   }
}

Thank you very much for your assistance.
