No, you’re supposed to click on the filter link to copy the helper code which you can use in your functions.php file.

That’s what I did, I was just trying to avoid posting the full codes.

You are mixing together the 2 different ways I explained in my previous post.

Oh, hmm, I thought I was following all said within the first step only.

I do not provide specific code lines in the support of this plugin, you may read this post to understand.

I see, no problems.

If you need someone to help you with coding then you will need to hire a developer or myself ??

Thanks for the offer. I’ve actually reached out to some but not yet received a reply, so I’ll give it some further shots and if I’m still stuck how would I be able to contact you to take your offer?

I’ll take a look. Thanks.

hahaha, yes, I know exactly what you mean. You might find this thread worth a read as to why I wrote this plugin.

Thanks. I’m new to wordpress and I instantly felt the ruse with those plugins so I imagine they are ticking off others too.

Thanks.

If you are using the Smart Grid-layout extension (another of my plugin for CF7), then you can also

Yes I am.

So I committed to doing the first method you suggested (as I think it looks and acts better), but my tags still do not appear on the posts, I know I am doing something wrong. Although the new tags are being created so I am missing something somewhere.

My tag box shortcode:
[dynamic_select addposttags multiple class:select2 class:tags "slug:post_tag"]

In functions.php I’ve added:

“filter:cf7_2_post_filter-post_tag” code snippet

Also added Taxonomy Registration Filter (3) and Action (16), but I’m not sure what to put in the action “//do something.” line.

Is it?
do_action('cf7_2_post_form_posted', $post_id, $this->cf7_key, $this->post_map_fields, $this->post_map_meta_fields, $cf7_form_data, $submission->uploaded_files());

Can you expand on how to do cf7_2_post_form_posted or the step in a bit more detail please?

Here’s my map settings if I’ve not been clear above.

The form looks like:

Sorry if I was not clear.

So a user would select a certain category, but may want to add a tag to the post. That tag may not exist so I thought they could add it when selecting tags.

For example a category called “Asian Cities”, the user may want to be more specific and add the city as a tag “#hongkong” etc. Just like below you are able to add tags to your reply to this post separating by commas.

After activating the plugin, have you tried going to the main contact form page where your forms are listed, looking to the far right, there should be a “Create new” link, that’s where the mapping can be done.

I hope that helps.

Thanks – that worked, but I require the user to be able to add new tag codes. Is that not possible?

Oh, I spent quite a few hours going through the FAQ’s (your one and the main cf7) last night for various things, I think I must have confused myself and directly started trying other things. Thanks for that.

Wow, well that was pretty rude.

I personally have spent two days searching for the right form builder plugin and this seems like it is basically the best one out there and the most detailed. Maybe you’re just after a simple form that is quick to set up and you only need the basics, but others want the full package and I’d say this is it.

I am glad there is a video tutorial on the way, I did see some on youtube already posted.
