I'm still a bit unclear why the global didn't work.. if you could explain it that would be great, would be nice to learn. No worries if you're too busy. Many thanks, Dasha dashaluna on "Redirect to a page and display form's confirmation message on that page" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/redirect-to-a-page-and-display-forms-confirmation-message-on-that-page#post-176636 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 07:49:42 +0000 dashaluna 176636@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hello David, Thanks for letting me know. Hmm, I'm really confused now, I'm using <code>gform_pre_submission</code> hook, but the global doesn't have any values after the redirect. I'd thought because it's a global variable, it will have the value saved after the redirect. I will try session..

You could use the pre-submission hook to push all the submitted details to session variables or a cookie and use PHP to pull those details on the page you've redirected them to. dashaluna on "Redirect to a page and display form's confirmation message on that page" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/redirect-to-a-page-and-display-forms-confirmation-message-on-that-page#post-175465 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 12:02:47 +0000 dashaluna 175465@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hello David, Thank you for letting me know. I was trying to use a global, so it will be set after the form goes through <code>gform_confirmation</code> filter. Something like that: <pre><code>global $gf_data; $gf_data = ""; add_filter("gform_confirmation_2", "add_story_custom_confirmation", 10, 4); function add_story_custom_confirmation( $confirmation, $form, $lead, $ajax ){ global $gf_data; $gf_data .= "Thank you for submitting a story. We will be in touch soon."; return $confirmation; }</code></pre> Than in the template that a visitor redirected to I'm displaying the global <code>$gf_data</code> as: <pre><code>global $gf_data; echo "<h1>GF DATA</h1>"; echo $gf_data;</code></pre> I've tested and the global <code>$gf_data</code> is setup in the filter before <code>return $confirmation</code>. However, it doesn't seem to appear on the page template. I was wondering if such work around will be possible, perhaps, I'm missing something out? Or this is not possible at all? I would appreciate your help.

I would like to redirect a visitor on submitting a form to a WP page and also display that form's confirmation message (before other page info). This WP page is also accessible by itself. However, I only want to display the form's confirmation message on that page if it was redirected to after submitting a form. Ideally, I don't want to use URL parameters. Can I add some code to a page template or do it via hooks somehow? Many thanks, Dasha
