amember hack

  1. Hi Guys,

    I need help with a hack. I had a developer make me a hack for contact form 7 but cf7 is just not good enough since I need conditional logic and better database access.

    a link to how the hack manifest itself in CF 7 is here

    once the member in logged in (using amember) his email is pre-populated as you can see here:

    this allows the member to submit info to me and gets a copy himself

    I am not a programmer so no idea on how to do this.

    anyone knows how to do this?
    Thanks,
    Nik

  2. There is a hook you can use to pre-populate fields using code. You would have to use this hook to pre-populate those 2 fields with the username and email of the aMember user. We don't have aMember and haven't used it so we couldn't write the code snippet for you, but it would be extremely easy for a developer who knows aMember to implement this for you.

    This post discusses how to populate a field dynamically using PHP that you add to your themes functions.php file. This is what you would want to use, only you would populate it with the values from aMember for the user and email:

    It should be a simple implementation for any WordPress developer who knows how to use hooks/filters, and any good WordPress developer should.

    If we were familiar with aMember we could have provided a quick snippet for unfortunately we don't use it and aren't familiar with it enough to write the code for you.
