Hi, Upon form submit, I need to retrieve field values through the $_POST php variable. In other words, I know I can achieve this through the "url redirection" form action, by adding url parameters, but I need to do it through post data. Is it possible? :)

Ben, I've been looking for the same. In my case, I need to do some calculation based on the user's responses in the form, then determine what message to display what email to send. Custom logic within formidable can't provide what I need here, so I'll need to write my own script to handle this. Any ideas?

Looking further into this, I think I'll try adding my custom logic via the frm_redirect_url hook, https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/frm_redirect_url/#kb-basic-example

The PHP $_POST associative array is available in any of the post submit actions and filters. We use it all the time for calculations, API calls, etc. Look in the Knowledgebase in the Extending Formidable Forms section. There are many hooks you can use that include $_POST.
