AppGini Community Forums

I am trying to make an event sign-up form with AppGini to replace the use of Google Form for the same purpose.

I use the same form for different events, and there is a selection field for user to choose which event he/she is signing-up for. The form looks like this: Is it possible to just provide the URL with the specific event, so the selection is already made when the user enters the sign-up form, such as this?

http://server.com/registration_view.php?eventid=1
http://server.com/registration_view.php?eventid=2
http://server.com/registration_view.php?eventid=3

Thank you.

All the linked related information including description, presenter, language, date, time and venue should also automatically displayed accordingly, in the same way as if the user has selected the event name.

Hi,

just as a thought.
You could create the base records already upfront in your database. E.g. data for eventid=1, eventid=2....
Now you can present that link to the user (http://server.com/registration_view.php?eventid=1). Instead of the "Save New" button the user will get an "Save changes" button, but you could change that to your needs.
Once the user hits the "Save changes" button, you catch the data in the _before_update hook and create a new record with the entered data.
For the exisiting record you reset the data the your default data and store that.

Now the user has actually created a new record with the presets you have provided in the specific event link.

Hope I made that clear enough.
