Adding filled PDFs into the media library is an interesting idea, I will have to think about that. I don’t know about posting them in categories, I don’t think that is a native feature of WordPress. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Download PDF rather than send](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/download-pdf-rather-than-send/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/download-pdf-rather-than-send/#post-11687434) * I have the first working version of the download feature committed on GitHub.

It looks like their plugins are breaking Contact Form 7 in general.

I will add that onto my TODO list. Look for the fix in the upcoming versions of the plugin. If you need this sooner, let me know. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] PDF Form Wont Transfer Checkboxes](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-form-wont-transfer-checkboxes/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-form-wont-transfer-checkboxes/#post-11655060) * Make sure you set the CF7 checkbox values to the same value as the exported value of the checkbox in the PDF field options. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Map to raw value of pipe selection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/map-to-raw-value-of-pipe-selection/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/map-to-raw-value-of-pipe-selection/#post-11637030) * Thanks for pointing out documentation about the “_raw_” values. It make sense to add a feature to the plugin that would allow users to map these values. I will add that in when I get a chance. * Meanwhile, you can use my suggestion, * 1. Install this plugin: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-dynamic-text-extension/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-dynamic-text-extension/) * 2. Add a shortcode roughly like this, * ``` add_shortcode( 'get_value_shortcode', 'get_value_shortcode_handler' ); function get_value_shortcode_handler(){ return $_POST['value']; } ``` * 3. Use the following CF7 tags and map them to the appropriate PDF fields, [radio value “f|FEMALE” “m|MALE”] [dynamichidden raw_value “get_value_shortcode”] * I know this is really ugly, but I am sure you can come up with something prettier, given the time. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Todays date autofill](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/todays-date-autofill/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/todays-date-autofill/#post-11636652) * There is a solution to your problem described in the following post, [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unique-random-number/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unique-random-number/) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Missing latin extended symbols](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-latin-extended-symbols/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-latin-extended-symbols/#post-11636287) * This is a problem with most PDF viewers not rendering correctly. I have a solution in the works, however, it will be a while before I will be able to deploy it. The problem will persist anyway if the user attempts to edit the contents of filled fields. This is something that has to be fixed with the PDF viewers themselves. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] PDF not attaching to email](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-not-attaching-to-email/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-not-attaching-to-email/#post-11636279) * Hi, * I’ve tested PDF attaching with the latest CF7 / WP versions but I don’t have any issues. Most likely your problem is other plugins. If you guys don’t mind, send me a wp-admin login details to admin at maximum dot software and I will try to debug what is causing your issue. * Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] PDF Form Disappearing when Contact Form is saved](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-form-disappearing-when-contact-form-is-saved/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-form-disappearing-when-contact-form-is-saved/#post-11636267) * Hi, * I believe this issue is caused by incompatibilities with other plugins. Try to disable other plugins and test to see if the problem is resolved. * I am about to launch a new version that does away with the file upload and replaces it with built in WP media browser, so, hopefully the new method will not cause incompatibilities. * Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Create post using PDF](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/create-post-using-pdf/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/create-post-using-pdf/#post-11636259) * Hi, * I am about to launch a couple of features that you may be interested in. * 1. Allow users to download filled PDF after submitting the form 2. Allow CF7 form editor to set path where filled PDFs will be saved. * I think you can use #2 to save PDF in a directory (in your public_html folder) that has directory listing turned on. Then, you can direct your users to that directory and allow them to download the filled PDF files. * Let me know if that is going to be helpful. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Date Format](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/date-format-170/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/date-format-170/#post-11636247) * Hi, * Are up using code similar to what I’ve provided in the response? If that format isn’t suitable for you, you can always change it. One possible solution is to use the following built in WP function, [https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/date_i18n](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/date_i18n) * When you say ‘date format is not very readable in my country/language,’ what do you mean exactly? How is it not readable? Can you provide examples of how it should be and how it is currently? * The problem is, it is not clear to me what you guys are trying to do. I need more information, such as the PDF file you are trying to fill, your CF7 form, any additional plugins that are used for formatting the data, the date formats you want use on the website, email message and the PDF file, etc. I need more details. * What I can do is add data formatting hooks to the plugin to allow you guys to adjust the data format before it is added into the PDF file. * Let me know more details. * Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Map to raw value of pipe selection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/map-to-raw-value-of-pipe-selection/) * Plugin Author [maximum.software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maximumsoftware/) * (@maximumsoftware) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/map-to-raw-value-of-pipe-selection/#post-11474957) * How are you able to get the “_raw_location” mail-tag? I don’t think WPCF7_USE_PIPE does that. * The plugin currently doesn’t allow you to enter any arbitrary mail-tags that are not fields on the form. I will consider adding this feature in the future. However, what you can do in the meantime is add a custom hidden mail-tag with some custom code and add it onto the form as a field. Once you do that, you will be able to map it to a PDF field.
