Replicate and dynamically populate Cubepoints plugins donate form

  1. Hi everyone,

    I am trying to figure out how to create a gravity form that replaces the Cubepoints 'donate' form.

    Currently the way the cubepoints form works is you hit a link and it brings up a pop up where you have to manually enter the users username & the number of points you want to donate.

    And there is just too much room for error with spelling etc..

    So I would love to know if it's possible (and then how) to create a form that does the followng:

    1 - Grab the authors login name and email from the post the form is embedded in.
    2 - Grab the cubepoints value from a custom field
    3 - Submit the information to cubepoints so the value (from the custom field) is donated to the post author - from the person submitting the form.
    4 - Send an email to the author of the post saying they have received a donation.

    Cubepoints documentation is just rubbish but here is the donate code - http://pastebin.com/1Y8d2JGd

    Thanks in advance!

  3. Hi ddgdaily2,

    This is likely possible (with some customization); however, a walk-through of this specificity is unfortunately outside the scope of support. We're happy to leave this thread open for other users to contribute any assistance.

    If you figure this out on your own, be sure to share your solution with the GF community here. :)
