CF7 dynamic text extension, no transmission to form after wp 4.4.

    When a person has booked before I try toprefill a booking form with his email address, name, home address etc in the bookingform for a holidayhouse.

    It worked fine with all latest plugin-versions until upgrading to WP 4.4 After upgrading to WP 4.4. the fields are not any longer prefilled with emailaddress, name, etc. but with fieldnames. For instance this: vhv_emailpf=” instead of the real email address (see example under).

    The prefill is done in the bookingpage as follows:
    /* CODING VOOR PREFIL EMAILADRES */
    add_shortcode( ‘vhv_emailpf’, ‘getEmailAdres’ );
    function getEmailAdres( $atts ) { return gEmailAdres; }

    The field gEmailAdres itself is filled after a sql-execution.

    The bookingform then is as follows:
    <span class=”cf7_boekform_lbl”>Emailadres</span>[dynamictext* vhv_email 30/35 “vhv_emailpf=””]

    I am using CF7 – Dynamic Text Extension. Deactivate & re-activate it did not bring any changes.

    Does anyone recognize this or has any idea how to solve this?

    Note: I made a post under Plugins and Hacks already. But I feel I do reach the author of this plugin just now. So sorry if I mistake with this second post.

    I am sure that it is CF7 Dynamic Text Extension that fails. Another site – also updated – CF7 works fine but on that site I do not use this CF7 Dynamic Text Extension plugin.

    It looks like the following instruction fails (there are a few simular to this):
    /* CODING VOOR PREFIL EMAILADRES */
    add_shortcode( ‘vhv_emailpf’, ‘getEmailAdres’ );
    function getEmailAdres( $atts ) { return gEmailAdres; }

    How to force execution of this function? Anyone with any idea?

    Meanwhile I’ve restored WP 4.3. because this bookingform hás to work.

    Solved, finally, after trying a thousand things.

    This is wrong: Emailasdress [dynamictext* vhv_email 30/35 “vhv_emailprefill=””]

    Delete the equal-sign and two single quots at the end and it works again. Apparently this became critical in WP 4.4.

    Glad to hear you got it sorted ?? Yes, WordPress became more restrictive with shortcodes in v4.4
