    Hello,

    I`m trying to modify the functionality of machform to include another field to the ap_form table. I saw something similar to this in the forum.

    So in the edit_form.php file I add this.
    if(!empty($row)){
    $form->id = $form_id;
    $form->name = $row['form_name'];
    $form->description = $row['form_description'];
    $form->redirect = $row['form_redirect'];
    $form->success_message = $row['form_success_message'];
    $form->password = $row['form_password'];
    $form->frame_height = $row['form_frame_height'];
    $form->unique_ip = $row['form_unique_ip'];
    $form->captcha = $row['form_captcha'];
    $form->review = $row['form_review'];
    $form->newfield = _session['newfield']
    }

    The new field doesn't have to be entered by the user. It should come from session data and be added to every new form so I can keep track of who's creating a form. I know the function required is in javascript and the javascript is obfuscated so i'm wondering if there's a function call that I would need to add newfield to the database table ap_forms.

    Can you lead in the right direction. Thank you very much for your helpo.

    This one is pretty simple actually. You only need to modify save.php file.
    Let say your field name is form_creator

    Search around line 82 - 91 of save.php, you should see this:

    $form_input['form_id'] 			    = $form_id;
$form_input['form_name'] 			= $form_object->name;
$form_input['form_description'] 	= $form_object->description;
$form_input['form_redirect'] 		= $form_object->redirect;
$form_input['form_success_message'] = $form_object->success_message;
$form_input['form_password'] 		= $form_object->password;
$form_input['form_unique_ip'] 		= $form_object->unique_ip;
$form_input['form_captcha'] 		= $form_object->captcha;
$form_input['form_review'] 			= $form_object->review;
$form_input['form_frame_height'] 	= $form_object->frame_height;

    right below those lines, add your own line:

    $form_input['form_creator'] 	= $_SESSION['user_name'];
