Custom Webform Module
I have a module that creates a web form for users to fill out. I'd like to track different campaign that access the same web form using a different URL so I can track hits and conversion rates for each URL. For example www.mywebsite.com/myform?campaign=june www.mywebsite.com/myform?campaign=july How in the module can I capture the extension (after 'campaign=') and redirect the user to a unique confirmation page based on the extension? Thanks, Lynn
Hi, You can use %get[campaign] as default value for a web component, so the easiest is to add a hidden component to store this, for the redirect you need a custom module with a hook-form-alter, see http://drupal.org/node/952342#comment-4134176 Best regards, Peter Droogmans Attiks Ketsstraat 94 2140 Borgerhout Belgium 32 3 288 61 17 32 497 44 44 77 -----Original Message----- From: development-bounces@drupal.org [mailto:development-bounces@drupal.org] On Behalf Of Lynn Stott (Stott Design) Sent: dinsdag 21 juni 2011 7:01 AM To: development@drupal.org Subject: [development] Custom Webform Module I have a module that creates a web form for users to fill out.

http://drupal.org/project/webform If you meant this module then Peters advice is the best way. Otherwise if you are populating a web form yourself through fapi and storing the results, etc then you will want to use the $_GET['campaign'] variable instead which utilized PHPs inbuilt constants.

Hi all. This is my first Drupal post. My name is Junior (Jay) Campbell and I am the founder of Intelek International. Sounds pretty "highfulooting" right? It really isn't. Anyways, I have been building and managing my own website, www.intelek.net for a several years now - since about 1990 - and I struggle! I really do. I'm currently struggling with the Facebook (FB) registration form "thingy" (html code?) that I need to integrate my website with FB. I'd appreciate any assistance anyone here can offer. Please be gentle :-).

Hi, I have two things to point out: 1- I don't see what this website has to do with Drupal at all. If you are looking to re-build your site with Drupal, ask in Freenode #drupal or #drupal-support rather than in this list. 2- It would be better if you started your own thread, rather than replying to someone else's post. Sorry if I sound harsh. Regards, T On 06/24/2011 02:57 PM, Jay Campbell wrote:

Hi all. To Tolga My apologies if I seem presumptious. I was not aware that I could start my own list; I'm just learning how Drupal works. Thank you very much for your assistance.
