Hi folks,
I am using v5.5.1 and have a question concerning the fields. I would like to add a field "company". I the form I have added the field and named it COMPANY. Can I save this value with "3. profile modification" in the database? How?

Hi Ma,
I have already created the field. But how is it possible to save the data entered into the subscription form?

For instance field company (from www.openemm.org):

Code: Select all

<form name="subform" method="post" action="http://www.openemm.org:8080/form.do"> 
<input type="hidden" name="agnCI" value="1" /> 
<input type="hidden" name="agnFN" value="subscribe" /> 
<input type="hidden" name="agnSUBSCRIBE" value="1" /> 
<input type="hidden" name="agnMAILINGLIST" value="1" />

<input type="text" class="inputtype" name="company" maxlength="80" />

</form>

Hi Ma,

You should simply read the manual to learn how to set up OpenEMM forms and actions.

Thanks for your advise. I read it more than once but cannot find the solution how to save the custom field in the database, sorry.

Do I have to define a "script-action"?
