Resfresh page after form submits?

Hi @jhutson323

I hope you are doing well.

Can you please try this solution:

Add a new field in your form > hidden field, select the option embed_url: https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#default-value

Then go to Form > Behaviour > After submission and enter your {hidden-ID} field.

Let us know the result you got.

I hadnt thought of that, but it appears that I’m unable to access the “dynamic redirects” found on your guide: https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#default-value

Is this a Pro feature?

Hi @jhutson323

When it comes to redirects here is a full guide:

I might be missing something, but I’m not even seeing the (+) sign.

Hi @jhutson323,

In general, this is how the section would have loaded:

If the above isn’t how you noticed, then most probably there is a conflict.

To start with, could you please check whether there are any JavaScript errors picked in the console?

You can check under the “console” tab as mentioned in this doc:
https://developer.www.ads-software.com/advanced-administration/debug/debug-javascript/

If there are errors related to Forminator, please do share a screenshot of what you notice.

If there isn’t any console error then would recommend you to run a conflict test and see whether you get the same behaviour or not.

Please check this flowchart on how to run a conflict test:

Please do let us know how that goes.

Kind Regards,

Ah, thanks for your patience. I found out it’s woocommerce that’s causing the issue.

New issue: using the Hidden Field Embed URL as the redirect prompt, the page successfully reloads but ultimately fails because of a double “https:\\” as seen below

Thoughts?

Hello @jhutson323,

I’ve replicated the same issue on a lab site, and we’ll be checking this further with the developers, in order to improve redirection behavior when using hidden fields.

Currently the workaround would be to remove https:// from the custom value specified in the hidden field. This way, the proper protocol (https:// or https://) should be detected by the browser, and added automatically.

Hope this helps. Let us know if there’s still any issue.

I’m not even sure how to begin writing a custom value for the hidden field to equal the Embed URL without the “https://”, as opposed to setting it to hold the Embed URL.

I understand how to get to the correct option, but I do not know what the Custom Value would be.

Hi @jhutson323

Thank you for response!

I believe my colleague was referring to the case when hidden field has “Default value (optional)” set to “Custom value”. But if it’s set to “Embed URL” then the URL is taken automatically from the page the form is on – and that’s a bit different story.

I’m sorry we missed that.

In that case, keep the form and its hidden field set as you already have but try adding this code to the site:

<?php 

add_filter( 'forminator_field_hidden_field_value', 'wpmudev_change_hidden_embed', 10, 4 );
function wpmudev_change_hidden_embed( $value, $saved_value, $field, $cls ) {
    if ( 'embed_url' == $saved_value ) {
        $value = str_replace( array( 'https://', 'https://' ), '', $value );
    }
    return $value;
}

Best way to do it is to add it as “Must Use” plugin:

– access site’s WordPress installation via FTP or cPanel “File Manger” or similar way
– in the “/wp-content/mu-plugins” folder create an empty file with a .php extension (e.g. “forminator-embed-url-no-protocol.php” or similar)
– copy and paste above code into it
– save the file.

It should work out of the box and what it does is it simply removes the protocol prefix from the URL added to hidden field by Embed URL option. So even if the extra prefix is added by WooCommerce or anything else – it should prevent it being duplicated.

Best regards,
Adam
