[SOLVED] Prefilling CB Register form with URL info or previous form

Press F12 when testing to review browser error console and see if your JS is erroring for whatever reason. Sorry there's not much more I can do for you. We do not provide coding assistance. The code provided is just examples and I have not tested them.

Thanks Kyle

I understand that you do not offer custom coding assistance, but this is the developer forum and I am using 'out of the box' functionality.

This should just work. And it does for standard text fields but I cannot get it to work for Radio buttons, so I really do still need yours, Beat's etc... assistance please

Kind regards

Using this as a test:

$( '#username' ).val( '[post_cb_gender]' );

This inserts the value of the cb_gender field into a text field.

The results are "on".

So regardless of "a Man" or "a Female" being selected it says "on" as the name of the field is cb_gender.

How can I catch the value?

Thanks in advance

I have got it working! Through all my testing back and forth and amendments the value option was altered and was misspelt in the original custom form.

FOR THE RECORD:

$( '#username' ).val( '[post_username]' );
if ( '[post_cb_gender]' == 'male' ) {
$( '#cbf322' ).attr( 'checked', 'checked' );
} else if ( '[post_cb_gender]' == 'female' ) {
$( '#cbf323' ).attr( 'checked', 'checked' );
}

This format now works using:

<form id="reg_mod" action="index.php?option=com_comprofiler&amp;task=registers" method="post"><input type="hidden" name="option" value="com_comprofiler" /><input type="hidden" name="task" value="registers" /><input type="hidden" name="ismodule" value="yes" />
<div><label for="reg_mod_name">User Name</label><input id="reg_mod_username" class="MyClass" type="text" name="username" size="14" />
</div>
<div><label for="reg_mod_cbf322">Gender&nbsp;</label>Male&nbsp;<input id="reg_mod_cbf322" class="MyCheck" type="radio" name="cb_gender" value="male" />&nbsp;Female&nbsp;<input id="reg_mod_cbf323" class="MyCheck" type="radio" name="cb_gender" value="female" />
</div>
<div><br /><input class="button" type="submit" value="Register" />
</div>
</form>

As the form.

Thanks for all your help Kyle.

Kind regards
