    Hello everyone,

    I am a theme developer and I have created a custom theme for a client to replace the Genesis dependant Magazine Pro theme already on his main site.

    I installed the plugin on my test site and created 1 simple form called quote form, using the shortcode I have insalled the form as a modal popup in my header.php file as well as on my homepage.php and I have created 2 sidebars called sidebar-page.php & sidebar-post.php and placed the form at the top of those 2 sidebars so they show up on all pages and all posts as well.

    The site itself has a total of 49 pages and 172+ posts. I have since learned off my client that he wants to know the specific page/post the user on the site submitted the quote form from and im wondering if this is possible to find out using this plugin or if there is a specific function needed to placed in my functions.php file.

    Many thanks,
    Phillip Dews

  • Hi @phillipdewsblogger — Good question!

    You can absolutely achieve this by:
    1. Add a Single Line Text field.
    2. Add the smart tag of {page_title} in the Default Value of the above mentioned field.

    3. Using CSS hide the Single Line Text field — this way the field will not be visible on the front end.

    Hope this helps! ??

    Hi @niksebastian,

    Thank you I thought so as well, I hope it helps a few others out there as well.
    Yes it did help and it works perfectly for my client now having tested it a couple of times. Looks like I am nearly ready to launch the site so for this I thank you.

    Hi @niksebastian,

    Is it possible to get the page/post URL instead of the page/post title at all?
    Many thanks,

    Phillip

    Hi @phillipdewsblogger – to achieve what you have mentioned, please use the smart tag {page_url}

    Hope this helps ??
