Hi @tnightingale
I’m aware that this is more of a feature thing rather than an issue but being able to check actual form usually helps us better understand the case so thank you for sharing this.
That beings said, I gave it a shot and, as my colleagues already mentioned, this is something that would require custom code. Would you give it a try?:
<?php
add_filter( 'forminator_field_postdata_country', 'wpmu_autofill_custom_taxonomy', 10, 1);
function wpmu_autofill_custom_taxonomy( $post_field ) {
$country_list = forminator_to_field_array( forminator_get_countries_list() );
$select_html = '';
foreach( $country_list as $country ) {
$select_html .= '<option value="' .$country['label']. '">' .$country['label']. '</option>';
}
$select_html .= '</select>';
$post_field = str_replace( '</select>', $select_html, $post_field );
return $post_field;
}
To use it on site you need to add it as MU plugin and make a single change in the code.
To add it:
– create an empty file with a .php extension (e.g. “forminator-post-country-autofill.php”)
– copy and paste code into it and save
– upload the file into the “/wp-content/mu-plugins” folder of the site’s WordPress installation on server
The change:
In this line
add_filter( 'forminator_field_postdata_country', 'wpmu_autofill_custom_taxonomy', 10, 1);
you need to change the word “country” in filter name with the actual name of you custom taxonomy. So for example, if the taxonomy name is “country” – it would stay this way; if it’d be e.g. “car” the entire line would change to
add_filter( 'forminator_field_postdata_car', 'wpmu_autofill_custom_taxonomy', 10, 1);
I hope it makes sense 🙂
Give it a go, please, and let us know if it works for you.
Best regards,
Adam
