I am trying to include the date as the hidden value submitted to salesforce. I found the topic pass-query-param-to-field-value at: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pass-query-param-to-field-value

but i am having a difficult time following along/ making it work for me use.

Could you point me in the right direction? thanks Graham

The filter code i am using from within a custom plugin is:
‘add_filter( ‘salesforce_w2l_field_value’, ‘salesforce_w2l_field_value_querystring_example’, 10, 3 );

function salesforce_w2l_field_value_querystring_example( $val, $field, $form ){

$form_id = “3”; // form id to act upon
$field_name = ’00Nj0000008tKm1′; // API Name of the field your want to autofill
$qs_var = date(‘m/d/Y’); // e.g. ?source=foo

if( $form == $form_id && $field_name == $field ){
if( isset( $_GET[ $qs_var ] ) ){
return $_GET[ $qs_var ];
}
}

return $val;

}’

and i am attempting to apply it to the following input field:
‘<input type=”hidden” id=”sf_00Nj0000008tKm1″ class=”w2linput hidden” name=”00Nj0000008tKm1″ value=”test1″>’

Close, but your code is still looking at the querystring… try this:

add_filter( 'salesforce_w2l_field_value', 'salesforce_w2l_field_value_date_example', 10, 3 );

function salesforce_w2l_field_value_date_example( $val, $field, $form ){

$form_id = "3"; // form id to act upon
$field_name = '00Nj0000008tKm1'; // API Name of the field your want to autofill

if( $form == $form_id && $field_name == $field ){
return date('m/d/Y');
}
}

return $val;

}

Thanks except for one extra closing bracket it works great thanks for the help- corrected below

add_filter( 'salesforce_w2l_field_value', 'salesforce_w2l_field_value_date_example', 10, 3 );

function salesforce_w2l_field_value_date_example( $val, $field, $form ){

$form_id = "3"; // form id to act upon
$field_name = '00Nj0000008tKm1'; // API Name of the field your want to autofill

if( $form == $form_id && $field_name == $field ){
return date('m/d/Y');
}

return $val;

}

Hi -adding to this thread, how can I include the current page into this – so that we know which page the enquiry came from.

we have a number of house properties, with the enquiry form on each page – therefore when someone makes an enquiry about the property, we would like to include into the enquiry the property (page) name.

many thanks
