Yes, the confirmation page is a redirect with a full URL. Here's what I had as the hook: <pre><code>add_action('gform_after_submission_1', 'post_to_act_on_form', 10, 2); function post_to_act_on_form($entry, $form) { if (!function_exists('curl_init')) { error("Curl is not setup on this PHP server and is required for this script"); } else { $row_arr = array(); $row_arr["First Name"] = stripslashes($entry['11.3']); $row_arr["Last Name"] = stripslashes($entry['11.6']); $row_arr["E-mail Address"] = stripslashes($entry['12']); $row_arr["Quiz1"] = stripslashes($entry['13']); $row_arr["Quiz2"] = stripslashes($entry['14']); $row_arr["Quiz3"] = stripslashes($entry['15']); $row_arr["Quiz4"] = stripslashes($entry['16']); $row_arr["Quiz5"] = stripslashes($entry['17']); $row_arr["Quiz6"] = stripslashes($entry['18']); $row_arr["Quiz7"] = stripslashes($entry['19']); $row_arr["Quiz8"] = stripslashes($entry['20']); $row_arr["Quiz9"] = stripslashes($entry['21']); $row_arr["Quiz10"] = stripslashes($entry['22']); // Post to Act-On form $ch2 = curl_init(); if (curl_error($ch2) != "") { echo "Error: $error\n";} // Point to Act-On External Post URL curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.actonsoftware.com/acton/eform/1854/0003/d-ext-0001"); // Set the method to POST curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_POST, 1); // Pass POST data curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT")); curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($row_arr, '', '&')); curl_exec($ch2); curl_close($ch2); // close cURL resource } } add_action('gform_after_submission_1', 'post_to_act_on_form', 10, 2); function post_to_act_on_form($entry, $form) { if (!function_exists('curl_init')) { error("Curl is not setup on this PHP server and is required for this script"); } else { $row_arr = array(); $row_arr["First Name"] = stripslashes($entry['11.3']); $row_arr["Last Name"] = stripslashes($entry['11.6']); $row_arr["E-mail Address"] = stripslashes($entry['12']); $row_arr["Quiz1"] = stripslashes($entry['13']); $row_arr["Quiz2"] = stripslashes($entry['14']); $row_arr["Quiz3"] = stripslashes($entry['15']); $row_arr["Quiz4"] = stripslashes($entry['16']); $row_arr["Quiz5"] = stripslashes($entry['17']); $row_arr["Quiz6"] = stripslashes($entry['18']); $row_arr["Quiz7"] = stripslashes($entry['19']); $row_arr["Quiz8"] = stripslashes($entry['20']); $row_arr["Quiz9"] = stripslashes($entry['21']); $row_arr["Quiz10"] = stripslashes($entry['22']); // Post to Act-On form $ch2 = curl_init(); if (curl_error($ch2) != "") { echo "Error: $error\n";} // Point to Act-On External Post URL curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.actonsoftware.com/acton/eform/1854/0003/d-ext-0001"); // Set the method to POST curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_POST, 1); // Pass POST data curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT")); curl_setopt($ch2, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($row_arr, '', '&')); curl_exec($ch2); curl_close($ch2); // close cURL resource }</code></pre> Dana Cobb on "Error trying to post to external URL AND redirect in GF" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/error-trying-to-post-to-external-url-and-redirect-in-gf#post-50269 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 00:56:14 +0000 Dana Cobb 50269@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hi, copysmith, I need just a bit more information. Is the redirect within Gravity Forms setup in the admin? Do you have the Confirmation as a Page or Redirect with a full URL? I did some testing on my end and didn't have that error. I setup a post like the example on this page (<a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_after_submission" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_after_submission</a>) with my Confirmation set as a redirect. Can you supply the code you put into the gform_after_submission hook? copysmith on "Error trying to post to external URL AND redirect in GF" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/error-trying-to-post-to-external-url-and-redirect-in-gf#post-49643 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 19:30:13 +0000 copysmith 49643@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I added 'gform_after_submission' function to post the form data to an external URL. I used cURL to do the post. It works perfectly as long as I don't ALSO redirect the user within GF to another page. If all I do is show a message, the external post works fine. Once I add the redirect to another URL in GF, I get an error message: "Cannot modify header information - headers already sent", and it points to the line in the GF code: "header("Location: {$confirmation["redirect"]}");" I'd like to post the form data to an external URL (Act-On) AND then redirect the user to a different page. Ideas?
