    Hi,
    I am trying to capture the value of a caldera form field and use that value to change the name of a file that I am uploading. I am not a programmer or developer. but love to learn.

    /** GET value of field in caldera form */
    add_action( ‘caldera_forms_entry_saved’, function( $entryid, $new_entry, $form ){
    //get value of field with ID fld_9255683
    $value = Caldera_Forms::get_field_data( ‘fld_9255683’, $form, $entryid );

    $GLOBALS[‘justorder_referencekpl’] = $value;

    },5 );

    /** EXAMPLE FROU */
    add_filter( ‘frou_sanitize_file_name’, function($filename_infs){

    global $justorder_referencekpl;

    $filename_infs[‘structure’][‘translation’][‘preflex_rule’] = $justorder_referencekpl ;
    return $filename_infs;
    }, 20 );

    Any suggestions.
    Thanks,
    ken

    Hello, I don’t like using globals, but once you mentioned I think it should be a bit different:

    /** GET value of field in caldera form */
add_action( 'caldera_forms_entry_saved', function( $entryid, $new_entry, $form ){
$value = Caldera_Forms::get_field_data( 'fld_9255683', $form, $entryid );
global $justorder_referencekpl;
$justorder_referencekpl = $value;
},5 );
    /** EXAMPLE FROU */
add_filter( 'frou_sanitize_file_name', function($filename_infs){
global $justorder_referencekpl;
$filename_infs['structure']['translation']['preflex_rule'] = $justorder_referencekpl;
return $filename_infs;
}, 20 );

    Some notes:

    • I’ve never used caldera form
    • I didn’t test this piece of code

    But tell me if it works or if you had any luck 🙂
    See you
