User meta data

[dpenne]

Hi again,
Next question. Can you use user meta as a field to pass through to the PDF? I’ve unchecked the use field dropdown only but that didn’t allow anything custom.

Again, yes… I think… can you provide more specifics about the user meta data, and the ‘use field dropdown’, not clear on what you are referring to.

So under the settings tab, I unchecked the Limit Field Map to use Dropdown box. Then, back in my Export tab, I’d like to use a meta tag that I made through another form.

In my actual view, I use the code: $[952 show=”total”] where 952 is the id of the userID and “total” is the name of the user meta. To set the user meta in a form I use: [user_meta key=total]

The plugin will only merge Formidable field data, not WordPress user data. User meta data would need to be saved to a Formidable text field.

The “Limit Field Map to use Dropdown box” setting, limits the ‘selectable’ layouts in the “Field Map to use:” dropdown, only to the layouts that are associated with the form that is selected in the “Select the form to export data from:” dropdown. In other words, it just prevents you from selecting a form and a layout that do not work together.
