    I have a form on my website that I want to set up as a goal on my Google Analytics account. In order to do so, I need to specify the URL the user gets after submitting the form successfully..

    Well, it so happens that the form on my website does not change URL after submitting the form, the user gets the success message under the same URL.

    What could I do to get a different URL after user submitted the form?

    Find the code below:

    <?php
/*
Template Name: Survey
*/
?>

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submitted'])) {
	if(trim($_POST['contactName']) === '') {
		$nameError = 'Please enter your name.';
		$hasError = true;
	} else {
		$name = trim($_POST['contactName']);
	}

	if(trim($_POST['email']) === '')  {
		$emailError = 'Please enter your email address.';
		$hasError = true;
	} else if (!preg_match("/^:alnum:[a-z0-9_.-]*@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}$/i", trim($_POST['email']))) {
		$emailError = 'You entered an invalid email address.';
		$hasError = true;
	} else {
		$email = trim($_POST['email']);
	}

	if(trim($_POST['endereco']) === '') {
		$enderecoError = 'Please enter a message.';
		$hasError = true;
	} else {
		if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {
			$endereco = stripslashes(trim($_POST['endereco']));
		} else {
			$endereco = trim($_POST['endereco']);
		}
	}

	if(trim($_POST['servicos']) === '') {
		$servicosError = 'Please enter a message.';
		$hasError = true;
	} else {
		if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {
			$servicos = stripslashes(trim($_POST['servicos']));
		} else {
			$servicos = trim($_POST['servicos']);
		}
	}

	if(trim($_POST['comments']) === '') {
		$commentError = 'Please enter a message.';
		$hasError = true;
	} else {
		if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {
			$comments = stripslashes(trim($_POST['comments']));
		} else {
			$comments = trim($_POST['comments']);
		}
	}

	if(!isset($hasError)) {
		$emailTo = get_option('tz_email');
		if (!isset($emailTo) || ($emailTo == '') ){
			$emailTo = get_option('admin_email');
		}
		$subject = '[PESQUISA SERVICEIRO] DE '.$name;
		$body = "Name: $name \n\nEmail: $email \n\nEndereco: $endereco \n\nServicos: $servicos \n\nComments: $comments";
		$headers = 'From: '.$name.' <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email;

		wp_mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, $headers);
		$emailSent = true;
	}

}
?>

  • Can’y you just change the form action parameter from <?php the_permalink(); ?> to the URL location you really want?

    Hey Mattyrob,

    I have tried what you said, but if I do that I stop receiving the email messages (Which are just as important, if not more..)

    If I change the URL, do I have to make any other changes to make sure the email is delivered?

    Whatever URL your action sends the form to needs to have the 1st php block of code. Even so, the error checking will not work very well. I think the action should remain pointing to the same page for that reason.

    Perhaps try a wp_redirect() after the $emailSent = true; line to the URL that you register as a goal? It should work as long as it appears before the get_header() line. Additionally, only error free submissions will be logged by Analytics this way.

    can anyone tell me about that???

    Please post your own topic.

    Hello Bc Workz,

    Your solution was as simple as it was on the money.. I did just what you said and my code ended up like this: 

    wp_mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, $headers);
		$emailSent = true;
                wp_redirect( 'my-target-page-here', 301 );
		exit;

    Thanks you for your valuable insight.

    All the best mate!
