PHP and JS targeting

    Hello,

    We are doing a lot of jquery and PHP processing on our forms for a complicated solution – which includes having the same form multiple times on one page via AJAX.

    Will the ID’s / classes that this plugin generates stay static – so we can target them with our selectors and they won’t change over time? Would create a lot of problems if it changes periodically or on changes to the form in the backend or whatnot.

    Thanks for the great plugin!

    Digging into this a little further. Seems the PHP will process ok, some voodoo magic is still passing the original form ID.

    Still fighting the JS though. Looks like in the code there was a start of keeping the original form ID in a hidden field with the name of gform_field_values. It doesn’t look like that system is working though, no value is saved to the field. Maybe that part isn’t finished?

    Thanks again

    Hey @wpcsphil,

    The idea of the plugin is to modify the form ID by generating a unique one for each form (only where necessary), in order to make various functionality work for multiple forms.

    In case you need the form ID somewhere, you can easily pass it to the form HTML by using PHP and the gform_get_form_filter filter. Then, you can easily get it by using jQuery.

    Perhaps I can help you if I understand fully what you need to be done. Do you just need to get the original form ID?

    Please, let me know if you need further clarifications.

    Regards,
    Marin
