Hi Guys,
I have a question about the possibility of a form, when submitted, also submitting it "origin".

I want to add an "expression of interest" form to multiple courses on my training related website. Either the form will be embedded in the Article using a plugin or ill just link to the form.

Is there I way I can use only one form for all courses and for RSFormPro to send along with the email submission the origin of the form... so I know what course they are expressing interest in? This would save me having to make a dropdown on the form listing all the courses?

I did do a good google and search on the forum but didnt find a conversation about this.

Thanks for your help

Hi Kathy,

Thanks for the advice!

However I just discovered that the Module to publish a form in any position (which i also need to do this task) is only for Joomla 1.5! Disaster. Im on Joomla 2.5

Try submitting a ticket to support on your issue. They may have a solution for that already. And then please share it on the forum. It's very helpful when we get shared info from users who get answers from support.
(Remember they work Mon-Fri so it may be a few hours before you get an answer)

Good luck,

I get the menu alias (assuming you use them) and then store it in a hidden field. In the hidden field default value put the following code:

//<code>
$menu = JSite::getMenu();
$alias = $menu->getActive()->alias;
return $alias;
//</code>

Then on submission your form should hold the menu alias the form was submitted from.

Hope this helps.

Uff.. ive had no luck in the end... im on J2.5... and tried the following combinations:

1
$menu = JSite::getMenu();
$alias = $menu->getActive()->alias;
return $alias;
2
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$menu = $app->getMenu();
return $menu;
3
$menu = &JSite::getMenu(); // get JMenu object
$active = $menu->getActive(); // get active menu
return $active;

And used the following tag in my email: {getURLcode:value}

But im drawing a blank. Hmmm

Hello,

It took me a while to find it out again for Joomla! 2.5 instead of 1.5 but here is the code to get the id.
This works when people opens a link.id = menu id
alias = menu alias
titel = menu title

When you search further and play with it you get this code.
This will generate a full URL with article id and menu id.
Keep in mind this only works in a Article with a embedded form.

Hello,

Simpler method:

Is there also a method to get the article title into a form field?

In joomla 1.5 this worked fine with the following code:
//<code>
$doc = JFactory::getDocument();
return $doc->getTitle();
//</code>

In joomla 2.5 this doesn't work anymore?
