Saving the User’s ID along with the vote

Hi there,

Just wanted to share something I needed for this plugin: save the user’s ID when they answer a poll or fill out a survey.

I was happy to see Forminator uses filters, and was thus able to hook into that logic to register the info I wanted on the database.

I created a small plugin but I suppose you could just run this in your theme’s functions.php file if the plugin is in mu-plugins/. The code is super simple:

function forminator_saveUserID($items) {
    $items[] = [
        'name' => '_forminator_user_id',
        'value' => get_current_user_id()
    ];
    return $items;
}
add_filter('forminator_polls_submit_field_data', 'forminator_saveUserID');

I have already shared this with the Forminator team, maybe they’ll come up with a cleaner solution!

I hope this helps people that are in my situation!

Best,
Chris
