In the knowldegbase for frm_after_create_entry
There is an example: Create an entry in another form#
See Below. Can I just ask how do I add another 2 fields from Form A (like 6614) to populate in Form B (6622).
I can\'t workout how to add them in.
Also, it says:
\'item_key\' => \'entry\', //change entry to a dynamic value if you would like
How do I make this dynamic, I would like \"entry name\" and the \"Created by fields\" of Form B entry to be the same as Form A.
add_action(\'frm_after_create_entry\', \'create_entry_after_submission\', 30, 2);
function create_entry_after_submission($entry_id, $form_id){
if ( $form_id != 372 ) {//Change 372 to the ID of Form A
return;
}
$form2 = \'373\';//Change 373 to the ID of Form B
//Get user
if (!isset($_POST[\'frm_user_id\'])){
return;
}
$user = $_POST[\'frm_user_id\'];
//get data
if (!isset($_POST[\'item_meta\'][6614])){ //replace 6614 with the field ID of the Form A value
return;
}
$new_value = $_POST[\'item_meta\'][6614];
//create entry
FrmEntry::create(array(
\'form_id\' => $form2,
\'item_key\' => \'entry\', //change entry to a dynamic value if you would like
\'frm_user_id\' => $user,
\'item_meta\' => array(
6620 => $entry_id, //change 6620 to the ID of the field you want to populate (in Form B) with the entry ID of Form A
6621 => $user,//change 6621 to the ID of the userID field in Form B
6622 => $new_value,//Change 6622 to the ID of a field in Form B you want to populate with a value from Form A
),
));
}

You add id/value pairs to the item_meta array that's at the end of the FrmEntry::create command.

replied 11 months ago Thanks this has worked!
I created some $newvalues above the FrmEntry::create command, and then added in the mapped fields after!

This worked but I would like to amend this, to not create an entry in form b, if a field in Form A is set to "draft"
I tried this but it errored out any ideas why my conditional draft code didn't work?
add_action('frm_after_create_entry', 'create_entry_after_submission', 30, 2);
function create_entry_after_submission($entry_id, $form_id){
if ( $form_id != 4 ) {//Change 4 to the ID of Form A
return;
}
$form2 = '64';//Change 64 to the ID of Form B
//Get user
if (!isset($_POST['frm_user_id'])){
return;
}
$user = $_POST['frm_user_id'];
//get data
if (!isset($_POST['item_meta'][99])){ //replace 99 with the field ID of the Form A value
return;
}
$new_value = $_POST['item_meta'][99];
$value_email = $_POST['item_meta'][19];
// Check if the specific field 994 value in Form A is not "draft"
$draft_field_id = '994';
$draft_field_value = $entry->metas[ $draft_field_id ];
if ( $draft_field_value === 'draft' ) {
return; // If the field value is "draft", do not proceed with creating an entry in Form B
}
//create entry
FrmEntry::create(array(
'form_id' => $form2,
'item_key' => $value_email, //change entry to a dynamic value if you would like
'frm_user_id' => $user,
'item_meta' => array(
996 => $entry_id, //change 996 to the ID of the field you want to populate (in Form B) with the entry ID of Form A
877 => $user,//change 877 to the ID of the userID field in Form B
995 => $new_value,//Change 995 to the ID of a field in Form B you want to populate with a value from Form A
997 => $value_email,
998 => $_POST['item_meta'][55],
1000 => $_POST['item_meta'][106],
1001 => $_POST['item_meta'][274],
999 => $_POST['item_meta'][22],
1006 => $_POST['item_meta'][991],
),
));
}

replied 11 months ago Forgot to say it errors our at: $draft_field_value = $entry->metas[ $draft_field_id ];
Normally you'd want to identify what the error is as well, however, it's pretty obvious from the code that $entry is null, because you didn't set it. You need to execute $entry = FrmEntry::getOne($entry_id, true); before the line with the error.
