Hello, I want to make a QR with Formidable parameters in in the URL:

https://somesite.io/my-page?param1&param2&param3

The params are values in the fields.

Is this possible? If so, How?

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately E2Pdf doesn't support $_GET params by default however you can try to build such behavior with Formidable Forms Views.

- You need to create Formidable Forms View which will output needed Entry / Entries.

- Inside Formidable Forms View it must be used such shortcode contstruction:

[e2pdf-download id="299" dataset="[id]" arg1="[get param='param1']" arg2="[get param='param2']" arg3="[get param='param3']"]

* where "299" is your E2Pdf Template ID.
** The correct URL must be: https://somesite.io/my-page?param1=a&m2=b&m3=c, where Formidable Forms View will be placed on "my-page".

- Inside E2Pdf Template it must be used shortcodes to output values as:
[e2pdf-arg key="arg1"] / [e2pdf-arg key="arg2"] / [e2pdf-arg key="arg3"]

We remain at your service.

We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!

OK. To build the url in the QR in the E2PDF Template:

put the [e2pdf-arg key="arg1"] / [e2pdf-arg key="arg2"] / [e2pdf-arg key="arg3"] in the QR element inside the template?

Thank you.

Hi,

Yes, you can put it via "Right Mouse Click" on QRCode element -> "Properties" and combine it as you need inside "Value".

We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!
