Formidable Form

here you go:

add_filter( 'frm_after_create_entry', 'after_entry_created', 30, 2 );
function after_entry_created( $entry_id, $form_id ) {
	if ( ! function_exists( 'mycred_add' ) ) return $entry_id;

	if ( $form_id == 2 && is_user_logged_in() ) {
		mycred_add(
			'form_submission', // Reference
			get_current_user_id(), // User to gain points
			10, // Amount of points to gain
			'Points for form submission' // Log entry
		);
	}

	return $entry_id;
}

You can find more information about the mycred_add function in our online codex.

You would need to contact the plugin author and ask how you can get your form field values though the frm_after_create_entry filter that we are using. You could probably get it though $_POST[‘form_field_name’] but I do not the plugin you are using.

Well the above code, will add points equal to the value of $_POST[143] to the current user.

This assuming that:

1. myCRED is enabled.
2. The form ID is 2.
3. $_POST[143] exists
4. The $_POST[143] value is not zero.
5. The current user is logged in.
6. The $_POST[143] value is higher then zero.

So if it is not working you will need to check each of the above exceptions to see where the fault is:

1. Is the form ID really 2?
2. Does $_POST[143] exists?
3. Is the $_POST[143] value higher then zero?
4. Are you logged in while submitting the form?

Furthermore, while your code awards the amount set under the $pack variable, the log entry will be $pack*15. So if $pack is 1, your log entry will be: “15”.

As I mentioned before, I do not know this plugin so I assume that the filter fires correctly when you submit but I suspect that there is no $_POST[143] but maybe $_POST[‘kdl8ew’]?

There are different ways one can test a code snippet to see where the issue is.

I would for example change your code to the following:

add_action( 'frm_after_create_entry', 'mycred_charge_for_form_submission', 30, 2 );
function mycred_charge_for_form_submission( $entry_id, $form_id ) {
	// Start by making sure myCRED is enabled
	if ( ! function_exists( 'mycred_add' ) )  {
		echo 'MYCRED COULD NOT BE LOADED';
		return;
	}

	// Apply to a specific form only (with ID 2)
	if ( $form_id == 2 && isset( $_POST[143] ) ) {

		// Form Key
		$pack = (int) $_POST[143];

		// If pack is lower or equal to zero, bail
		if ( $pack <= 0 ) {
			echo 'PACK IS ZERO OR LOWER';
			return;
		}

		// If user is not logged in, bail
		$user_id = get_current_user_id();
		if ( $user_id == 0 ) {
			echo 'USER LOGGED OUT';
			return;
		}

		mycred_add(
			'form_submission', // required reference
			$user_id, // the user to give poitns to
			$pack, // amount
			$pack*15, // log entry
			$form_id // save the form id
		);
	}
	else {
		echo 'FORM OR FIELD IS NOT SET!';
	}
}

And then submit a form. The above version would then echo what the issue is

Then you know what the issue is. The Forum ID is not 2 or the $_POST[143] is not set.
