After update CFF not sending POST values

    Hello,
    updating from an old version (1.2.52) to current:
    I used to send the form fields to a specific page with POST method, always worked as expected.
    Updating to latest release, submitting the form keep redirecting me to the page specified in the Thank you page section, even if I disable the Submit button section.
    If I set the Thank you page to my desired destination the form still doesn’t send POST values to it.
    Is there something I missed in the many updates I missed that changed the way the form works?
    Is there still the possibility to send through POST method the fields to a desired page? That was the main feature that make me adopt the plugin in the first place.
    For the moment I will not update to maintain my features, but I would like to keep up to date with the version, if possible.
    Thanks

    Hello @lucavanon

    Thank you very much for contacting us. I’m sorry but the free plugin distribution has never included the option to send the information collected by the form to the thank you page because it does not support the shortcode for results as the commercial plugin distributions do.

    Could you please provide the link to the page that contains the form?

    Best regards.

    Thanks for the aswer.
    Unfortunately the page is contained in a reserved area in my website, I can’t provide you the link, but, anyway, let me explain better the situation.
    I mentioned the Thank you page only because I didn’t see other places in the menus to define the destination of the form, but if there is a field I haven’t found to define the page destination it will solve all my problems, as long as the fields are sent via POST method to that page.
    So, in short, how can I send to a desired page the field values via POST method?
    In my old version I just set in a button the destination of the submit button through jquery and send it like this:

    jQuery(this.form).attr(‘action’, ‘https://www.mysite.com/my-page);
    jQuery(this.form).submit();

    The fields are sent via POST method to my-page.
    Updating the plugin redirects me anyway to the Thank you page, even if I hide the Submit button.
    I hope now the situation is a little more clear.

    Thanks for you help

    Hello @lucavanon

    You can do the same with the current plugin version, including a button to modify the form action as you did. You can even submit the form in the background, and then redirect the user to the page you prefer or let it in the form.

    For more information about the commercial plugin features, please contact us via the plugin website. Contact Us

    Best regards.
