Creating new fields that map into your Lead

Anyone know? James? ??

1. API Name is required for Salesforce to understand which field you’re referencing (this is in the plugin FAQ).
2. Hidden fields work like any other field, but need to be enabled and have a value defined to have any effect when a lead is submitted (disabled fields are not sent).

That’s it.

If it’s still not working… it may be a pick list or lookup field in Salesforce … so Roofing may not be the value Salesforce is expecting.

This is covered in the FAQ as well, see: How do I use a lookup field with a picklist field in the plugin?.

It’s working fine! thank you for your help!

Another thing are UTM fields.. how can I get it to show a hidden field that picks up the UTM based on what URL the landing page was?

https://prntscr.com/hggv3o — it just shows up like this in my lead like this:
https://prntscr.com/hggw41

How can I get it to show the source based on URL string?

I can see it in the email: https://prntscr.com/hggwky

I just want the utm_source to show in salesforce lead.

thank you

// Autofill fields based on thew query string (using Google Analytics tracking variables in this example)

add_filter( 'salesforce_w2l_field_value', 'salesforce_w2l_field_value_querystring_example', 10, 3 );

function salesforce_w2l_field_value_querystring_example( $val, $field, $form ){

    $form_id = 1; // form id to act upon
    $field_name = 'source__c'; // API Name of the field you want to autofill
    $qs_var = 'source'; // e.g. ?source=foo

    if( $form == $form_id && $field_name == $field ){
        if( isset( $_GET[ $qs_var ] ) ){
            return $_GET[ $qs_var ];
        }
    }

    return $val;

}

Woa woa woa!

Thank you! I am assuming I add this into the functions.php file of my theme or child theme ?

thank you Nick!

*Adjusting the commented lines to suit my needs of course..

FYI i am not using anything GA related, just standard UTM tags in the URL for now.

thx

That code works with any query string variable.

Hi Nick, I appreciate your ongoing help, however i am stuck here. I just want to have these fields show what params were in the URL

how do I do that? I’m not very technical so you’ll have to excuse me and speak as if I have limited knowledge

?utm_source=testsource&utm_medium=testmedium&utm_content=testcontent

Thank you so much

Try this

// Autofill fields based on thew query string (using Google Analytics tracking variables in this example)

add_filter( 'salesforce_w2l_field_value', 'salesforce_w2l_field_value_querystring_example', 10, 3 );

function salesforce_w2l_field_value_querystring_example( $val, $field, $form ){

    $form_id = 1; // form id to act upon
    
    // return early if this is not the form we're looking for
    if( $form != $form_id ){
	    return $val;
    }
    
    // Map fields to query variables
    // Query string variable to fetch and return => API Name of the field you want to autofill   
    $map = array(
	    'utm_source' => 'utm_source__c',
	    'utm_medium' => 'utm_medium__c',
	    'utm_content' => 'utm_content__c',	    
    );
	
	// Do we have a match?
	$key = array_search( $field, $map );
	
	// Override field value with query string value
    if( $key ){
        if( isset( $_GET[ $key ] ) ){
            return $_GET[ $key ];
        }
    }

    return $val;

}

Of course change the field names to whatever you’re using.

Hi Nick

I added this code to my child theme’s functions.php, and tested it and still no dice

Here is my form fields config, am I missing something? https://prntscr.com/hgke1y

Please explain as if you were speaking to a 4 year old in a different language. Explain each thing 3 different ways and reference exact locations for what you mean because I still do not fully follow what you mean by “change the field names” Where??

Thank you so much.
