adminKeymaster
We are running PHP version: 5.6.30 and are not planning on upgrading at this time. However, we are going to release a new (replacement) version of PRO2PDF, called e2Pdf, in March 2018. The new version is using the latest PHP release.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterAlso, make sure the “Use local PDFtk” is not selected on the plugin’s SETTINGS tab.

adminKeymasterIf the signature has worked in the past, then check to make sure “SIGNATURE” is selected in the field map layout’s FORMAT dropdown field. If the FORMAT dropdown is missing then the plugin has reverted to the free version.
Let us know the status of the FORMAT dropdown.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThe signature plugin is working on all our sites as expected and there are no known issues. We are not familiar with a ‘serialize’ message or error. Are you able to provide a screenshot of the error?
Check the plugin’s SETTINGS tab that the “Enable local PDFTK” option is not checked. If not checked and the signature is not merging, we are happy to take a look at your installation if you complete this form. Otherwise provide us with more information and we’ll try to help you troubleshoot the issue you are having.

adminKeymasterPDFtk is not required if you have purchased the pro version. Uncheck the “Enable local PDFTK” checkbox on the plugin’s SETTINGS tab.
Are you able to export from the EXPORT tab after selecting the Form, Dataset, and Field Map Layout? If not, what is the error you are receiving?
Complete this form if you’d like us to take a look at your installation.

December 21, 2017 at 11:46 am in reply to: Split Form Field Values into multiple fields in PDF #17540adminKeymasterWe have updated the plugin to accept this hook in functions.php or code snippet. Just change the commented value below…
add_filter('fpropdf_wpfx_extract_fields', 'fpropdf_wpfx_extract_fields_updated', 10, 2); function fpropdf_wpfx_extract_fields_updated($fields, $entry) { if (isset($entry->form_id) && $entry->form_id == '9') { //change 9 to the Form ID $exploded = array(); foreach ($fields as $key => $field) { $index = $field[0]; $value = $field[1]; if ($index == 'm9hvnr') { //change m9hvnr to the name of the 1st PDF form field $exploded = explode(",", $value); //change , to the data separator used in the Formdiable Form Field if (isset($exploded['0'])) { $fields[$key][1] = $exploded['0']; } } } foreach ($fields as $key => $field) { $index = $field[0]; $value = $field[1]; if ($index == '2ebjab') { //change 2ebjab to the name of the 2nd PDF form field if (isset($exploded['1'])) { $fields[$key][1] = $exploded['1']; } } } } return $fields; }
adminKeymasterChange the shortcode’s dataset=xx parameter to dataset=[id]
EXAMPLE
CHANGE: [formidable-download form="bxo68" dataset="5630" layout="94"]
TO: [formidable-download form=”bxo68″ dataset=[id] layout=”94″]We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThere are unfinished, unused, abandoned, or non-working field map layout(s) for the same form that also have email attachment checked. Go through all other field map layouts for the same form and uncheck the email attachment option.
Or better yet, delete all unused field map layouts by selecting the layout – scroll to the bottom of the layout and click “Delete Entire Field Map”.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThere are no known issues with merging hidden fields to PDFs, we merge hidden fields daily in our own forms…
If you are using conditional logic to hide the Dropdown field, that would cause the hidden field to be blank… other than that, the hidden field data should merge.
Use this form if you are able to provide a link to the form, or create a PRO2PDF template of the merge, or access to the installation so that we may further investigate.

December 18, 2017 at 7:50 am in reply to: Split Form Field Values into multiple fields in PDF #17525adminKeymasterThere are no options in Formidable to split the values of a field, therefore there are no options in PRO2PDF. You would need to use javascript or PHP to split the values into hidden fields before saving the entry, then map the hidden fields to the PDF fields. We do not offer Javascript or PHP support.

adminKeymasterFormidable’s “other option” will only work if you merge to a PDF text field, not to a PDF radio button because there’s is no way to ‘match’ random user’s input to a PDF radio button.
The work-around is to use Formidable’s conditional logic to show/hide a Formidable Text Field and call it “other”. This will select the “other” PDF Radio Option and fill the PDF’s “other” text field.

adminKeymasterTake a look at this PDFEscape demo, make sure not only the field “Name” but also the “Value” matches EXACTLY.

adminKeymasterWordpress does not display PDF files, you can use the PRO2PDF shortcode(s) in the Formidable Form’s “On-Submit Message Box” and include the desired shortcode parameters to download or automatically display the PDF in a new browser tab, but not “on a WordPress page”.
adminKeymasterClick the words (links) in the above message above to be directed to the help pages on Formidable Form’s site.
Here’s a link to compare the free & paid versions of Formidable Forms. You can contact Formidable’s outstanding support team here if you have any questions about their plugin.

adminKeymasterWe can also create the field map layouts for you, complete this form if our service is needed to provide a completed project.
adminKeymasterCreate the Formidable form and field map layouts, then all will work the same as the example link.
Let us know if you have any questions as you progress. We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThere are two options to combine fields;
1 – Use a Formidable hidden field with the Text calculations field option to combine fields. This option does not have any formatting options.2 – Use PRO2PDF’s “Formidable: Dynamic” setting for the “Webform Data Field ID” dropdown, then add the field ID’s to the resulting text box. This option allows for simple formatting.
Regarding one Formidable Form merging to several PDF forms;
– Create a Field Map Layout for each PDF form. (Which creates PRO2PDF shortcodes for each.)
– The layout=x parameter may be changed to be dynamic based on form responses, like layout=[123]. (Where field ID 123 may be a radio button using the ‘Separate values‘ option with values set to match layout IDs)
– You may also use Formidable’s conditionals such as;
[if 125 equals=”Yes”]layout=xx[/if 125]Let us know if you need further assistance by providing specifics about how you need the PDFs created and we will provide a more specific solution.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterPRO2PDF is not effected by the Form’s conditional logic or field visibility setting. Our plugin simply merges whatever data is in the Formidable form fields to the PDF.
All Formidable form fields are available to be mapped to the PDF using the Webform Data Field ID dropdown field on the PRO2PDF Export tab.
EXAMPLE 1: If a Formidable form field is hidden with conditional logic, then Formidable deletes the contents of the field and no data will merge to the PDF.
EXAMPLE 2: If a field is only visible to “Administrators” and has data, that data will merge to the PDF even if the current user is not an Administrator.
Let us know if this answers your question, as we remain at your service.
adminKeymasterClick on these words… video example, or the words above…
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterSubmit data to the Formidable form, create a new field map layout on the PRO2PDF Export tab as shown in the video example.
Let us know if you need further assistance.
adminKeymasterThe upgrade form is working correctly now. Thank you for notifying us of this issue.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterOur apologies, the upgrade form should provide an option to upgrade, we are working on resolving the issue. In the meantime, you can use this link to manually upgrade for one full year from the day you complete this form.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterOur plugin currently only works with Formidable Forms, with Formidable Forms you can link to many other plugins and services using the Zapier add-on plugin.
Our new version will be compatible with many other plugins and is expected to be released March 2018.
