Multiple Entries by Demand

Hi @agencia221b

I hope you are doing well today.

Your query seems to be complex and possible out of scope. We will need some more data in this matter before we ask our SLS Team in this matter.

Does your mail goal is to store each user data somewehere and allow them to use form all the time, like Pedro will make multiple submission in month 1 and on his account you will see updated value of liters after each submit? If so, is there any know plugin, custom post type or value on account which you use?

Kind Regards,
Kris

Hi Kris!

Thanks for the answer and sorry for delaying to reply.

In fact I don’t need them to have a account at all. Just when Pedro submit that he colect, lets say, 5 liters, then forminator will record 5 submission identical of this Pedro’s submission. If in another day the same Pedro submit again, Forminator doesn’t need to identify and group both submissions.

The main goal is: For each liter collected, the person will have a number for a giveway that we gonna do at the end of the month. So Pedro submit today informing that he colected 5 liters, then with the 5 identical submissions of him I have 5 unique ID’s available to participate in the giveaway promotion.

Hi @agencia221b

Thank you for the explanation.

I believe this would be possible with some custom coding, yes, Forminator already generate an ID for the submission and you could use that, maybe the Google sheet integration can be helpful here:

https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#google-sheets

By default Forminator won’t send the ID to Google but we can do it by using this code https://gist.github.com/patrickfreitasdev/96e3bdf3bbbc25ca6f142855c866859f and a hidden-1 field.

Now, to make sure we are on the same page, I am thinking of this structure:

Form with regular fields + a number field “Oil litres”, on the submission Forminator generate the number – 1 example 5 litres would be 5 – 1 = 4 + the current submission making the total of litres.

If that would fit, I just have a small question to be able to escalate check this further, you said here:

If on another day the same Pedro submit again, Forminator doesn’t need to identify and group both submissions.

We need to have a way to control it, for example, if Pedro’s Email has any submissions it would skip generating the submissions based on the number field but if no submission with that email was done before it would generate the group, does it sound good? Or wouldn’t you mind keeping generating the group at any time customer submit the number field?

Hello @agencia221b ,
