# User Preferences

 * Hello World!
 * I need some help with this implementation.
 * I want to create a way to recommend content based on options that the user chose
   when registering.
 * I have 3 alternatives that I would like to share to know if they are possible
   to achieve:
    1. The simplest one, if there is a way to extract the options from the _select_
       field (that is where is the options givening to user) and add it directly to
       the wp_user table (since the user_id is not found in the Forminator table where
       the data or chosen options appear).
    2. I want to create a custom table in the database, so that I can add the user_id
       and the _select-1_ field in that table. Is there any hook to trigger once the
       form is submitted. If this exists, it would make it easier for me to add the
       fields in a custom table.
    3. How possible is it to give a value to each option and then calculate the result
       obtained. And based on the result, recommend something. An example case, if 
       it got 50/100, I am going to show you these post, or products, etc. And so on
       according to the score obtained.
 * If you consider that there is a much simpler option than what I mentioned, I 
   am open to suggestions.
 * The goal here is to verify that indeed the options correspond to x user, if this
   is true, something could be done with those options, in this case recommend content
   within my site.
 * I look forward to hearing from you.

 * Hi [@adrixkai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adrixkai/),
 * I hope you are keeping well today and thank you for reaching out to us.
 * 1) User meta mapping option of the registration form can help you with this. 
   Please find more details regarding this in our documentation here: [https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#user-meta-mapping](https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#user-meta-mapping)
 * 2) Please try using the following hook, I hope that helps.
    `forminator_form_after_save_entry`
 * 3) You have the option to enable calculations for the select field and set values
   for each option. Then, utilize the calculation field to calculate the total score
   based on the selections made.
 * I hope the following guides come in handy:
    a) [https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#select-calculations](https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#select-calculations)
   b) [https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#calculations-field](https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#calculations-field)
 * Additionally, you can customize the submission behaviour according to the calculated
   score. This includes setting up redirects and applying conditional logic based
   on the values in the calculation field.
 * I hope the following documentation helps with further information: [https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#submission-behavior](https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#submission-behavior)
 * I trust the information provided above proves helpful. Should you require any
   further clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
 * Kind Regards,
    Nebu John
