This thread got changed to resolved – what was the problem?

There is an action hook described here in the faq that is run every time a form is submitted. You could use the wp_insert_post and add_post_meta to insert posts and add custom fields respectively, using the data from the form. The action is passed a parameter with the submission data keyed by nicknames if the items have them. I also have a template here (Custom submission behavior) that shows you how to hook into the form submission action. This way would bypass the normal ‘publish submissions as posts’ functionality.

The alternative would be to make a custom summary template and set it as the ‘data summary template’ in the advanced tab. This would bypass all of the custom fields, though you could make the published post look however you wanted.

That makes sense, I guess it should be the default. But there is a way to do that. If you give the form item for the user’s e-mail address a nickname, say ‘user-email’, then you can put [item user-email] into the From field in the form editor. You can also use the ‘Joe Schmoe <jschmoe@email.com>’ style of addresses, so you could also do something like [item user-fname] [item user-lname] <[item user-email]>.

For (1) add the following somewhere in a CSS document that you can edit without losing changes:

.fm-form ul li{
    background: none;
}

If your theme doesn’t have a spot to put custom CSS, you can make a ‘note’ element at the top of your form, remove the label, and check the HTML option for the note element. Then put the above CSS within <style> and </style> and you should be all set.

As for the validation the submit button needs to have the ‘onclick’ property set to return fm_submit_onclick(1). This will call the javascript validation. Good luck!

There is an input in the form editor under ‘E-mail Notifications’ to enter a list of e-mail addresses to send notifications to. Would that work?

I’m not sure. If you are certain that the conflict is with WP e-Commerce then there isn’t anything I can do. They disable a certain script library in their plugin and that has some far reaching effects. I’ll see if I can come up with a better fix, but your best bet would be getting WP e-Commerce to not disable the ‘prototype’ script library.

I don’t think t here is an easy way to do that. You would have to use javascript. There is an faq here that explains how to get the form items within javascript. If you aren’t comfortable with javascript then I don’t think there is a way to do this.

Okay, the keyword statistics plugin is inserting some javascript into the Form Manager sections and this is causing the save script to break. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do to fix this on my end, you will have to ask the author of the keyword stats plugin to only add the scripts to the appropriate sections.

The javascript is added to the footer of the admin pages, and it is crashing when looking for the ‘kslang’ element, which only exists within certain parts of WordPress.
