Populating fields without a filter

  1. So, I used to use this kind code:

    $form['fields']['1']['defaultValue']=$current_user->data->user_email;
    $form['fields']['0']['defaultValue']['1.3']=$user_info->user_firstname;
    $form['fields']['0']['defaultValue']['1.6']=$user_info->user_lastname;
    $form['fields']['2']['defaultValue']=get_user_meta( $current_user->ID, 'bedrijfsnaam', true );
    $form['fields']['3']['defaultValue']['4.1']=get_user_meta( $current_user->ID, 'straatnaam', true );
    $form['fields']['3']['defaultValue']['4.3']=get_user_meta( $current_user->ID, 'postcode', true );
    $form['fields']['3']['defaultValue']['4.5']=get_user_meta( $current_user->ID, 'plaats', true );

    Which works perfect until you change around the order of the fields for example. It was intuitive to me, but not supported I guess.

    What I would like is that the field number would not be incremental. Now the first is $form['fields']['0'], the second is $form['fields']['1'], etc. But would get the ID of the field.

  2. Until then you can use something like:

    foreach($form['fields'] as &$field){
    	$id=$field['id'];
    
    	switch($field['type']){
    		case 'checkbox':
    			$f=json_decode($meta['f'.$id][0],true);
    			foreach($field['choices'] as &$choice){
    				if($f[$choice['value']]=='1'){
    					$choice['isSelected']='true';
    				}
    			}
    		break;
    		case 'textarea':
    		case 'text':
    		case 'website':
    			$field['defaultValue']=$meta['f'.$id][0];
    		break;
    		case 'radio':
    			foreach($field['choices'] as &$choice){
    				if($choice['value']==$meta['f'.$id][0]){
    					$choice['isSelected']='true';
    				}
    			}
    		break;
    	}
    	if($id=='43'){
    
    		//$field['description']='<div id="creditinfo">oke</div>'.$field['description'];
    
    	}
    }
