Field from another form

Hello @teamtacho,

Thank you very much for using our plugin.

The second parameter of the getField operation is not the form name. Instead, it is a selector used to identify the specific form instance on the page.

For example, the following code works correctly because you have assigned the class name highscore to the main form:

getField(fieldname24|n, '.highscore').val()

Please note that custom class names are assigned to forms through their shortcodes, for example:

[CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS id="6" class="highscore"]

It is also important to keep in mind that the plugin automatically assigns a CSS class based on the form ID. For instance, if a form has the ID 7, the plugin will automatically add the class:

cff-form-7

Therefore, you can reference a field in Form 7 as follows:

getField(fieldname24|n, '.cff-form-7').val()

However, if the same form (Form 7) is inserted multiple times on the same page, all instances will share the same automatically generated class name, creating ambiguity. In that case, the recommended solution is to assign a unique custom class to each form instance through its shortcode and use those custom class names in your getField calls.

Thank you.
