Even if you not an “user” (registered) and just commented on a WP blog, when you go back next time to that blog – you see your name, email and URI in the form, due to the cookies.
I am unsure how to access these cookies and use them in my form. Perhaps it is best just to deminstrate what I am trying to do.
If you go to my site “http://www.jmsiefer.com”
Login as: “test user”
Password: “test”
.. then go to this page: “http://www.jmsiefer.com/index.php?p=62”
What I have done is changed the form at the bottom, so instead of adding a comment about the post, they fill out a form regardging the product (which then sends the information to a .php script that I have written and collects the data into an Excel sheet.) I am trying to write the cookies as hidden data into the form, so that the user information will show up in the Excel doucment too. I hope this all makes sense.
I JUST CAN’T GET THE DANG USER INFORMATION TO GO ALONG WHEN SUBMITTING THE FORM. What are the names of the cookies for the user information? Thanks much. -J.
P.S.: I should add that when I look at the cookies that I can find, their names are: “wordpressuser_32ee9012545dfe7550…” hashed cookies. Can I get information out of these?
(I want to remove “Step 1” altogether on link I posted above)
