I have contact form on my website. And I need to change the value of one field before sending mail. For example name
. I try like this:
function contactform7_before_send_mail( $cf7 ) {
$cf7->posted_data['your_name'] = 'John Doe';
}
add_action( 'wpcf7_before_send_mail', 'contactform7_before_send_mail' );
But in the email comes the value that is specified in the form.
Recently faced the same problem.
There is a field in this form called "[s2-name]" for example. When a visitor submit out a form, I want to get this field, then change and send. After some information searching, I wrote this code:
add_action( 'wpcf7_before_send_mail', 'wpcf7_do_something_else_with_the_data', 90, 1 );
function wpcf7_do_something_else_with_the_data( $WPCF7_ContactForm ){
// Submission object, that generated when the user click the submit button.
$submission = WPCF7_Submission :: get_instance();
if ( $submission ){
$posted_data = $submission->get_posted_data();
if ( empty( $posted_data ) ){ return; }
// Got name data
$name_data = $posted_data['s2-name'];
// Do my code with this name
$changed_name = 'something';
// Got e-mail text
$mail = $WPCF7_ContactForm->prop( 'mail' );
// Replace "[s2-name]" field inside e-mail text
$new_mail = str_replace( '[s2-name]', $changed_name, $mail );
// Set
$WPCF7_ContactForm->set_properties( array( 'mail' => $new_mail ) );
return $WPCF7_ContactForm;
}
}
Tested with: WP 5.4.2 and Contact Form 7 Version 5.2
Try this:
post.php
$_POST["your_name"] = "John Doe");
do_shortcode("[cfdb-save-form-post]");
form.html
<form class="form-contact" action="post.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="your_name" />
</form>
