[Plugin: Contact Form 7] Custom Value for Selects

  • This plugin (contact form 7) is one of my favorite plugins. Extremely simple and robust at the same time. The generate tag thing is perfect.

    I was hoping to be able to add a custom value to a select.

    Example:
    Here’s a select tag:

    [select section "option1" "number2" "idea3"]

    This spits out:

    <select name="section">
<option value="option1">option1</option>
<option value="number2">number2</option>
<option value="idea3">idea3</option>
</select>

    I need the values to be different than what is displayed, so something like this:

    <select name="section">
<option value="ab">option1</option>
<option value="123">number2</option>
<option value="asd">idea3</option>
</select>

    I’m trying to just copy the code it spits out and then editing it, but it seems to check that =(

    Thanks again for the excellent plugin.

    I have a quick hack:

    In the above example, I created the select tag as:
    [select section “ab” “123” “asd”]

    Then I copied the HTML it outputs, and used that as the code on the page. Then I edited the display value to be the same as above. This got it past the validation.

    It would be nice to have this as part of the plugin though ??

    Thanks,
