Hi,
Here is my situation. I'm using machform to enable to users to submit a registration form. My question is how do I display a confirmation number (like an order number) along with the success message. Also is there a way to start the numbering from, say 6000 instead of starting from 1?
I hope I'm not confusing. Any help will be greatly apprecaited
Hi ...
It's possible to show confirmation number with adding a session on your confirmation number element. Try to follow this post

For numbering, can you tell me how you do it for now ? for this case maybe you can consider to use auto number logic but you have to make some modification to your machform files.
Thank you very much.. I'll try to implement this and let you know if I face any problem. :)
feel free to contact us :)
Yes I was able to display the entry number on the success page. Now the numbering is very simple (1, 2, 3, etc.) Instead what I would like to do is start the numbering from 10,000. How do I do that?
If you want to show inserted data ID from 1000. You can add the session variable with 1000 in post-functions.php file on line 1030.
//retrieve the id from last inserted data
if ($form_id == '1') {
$_SESSION['form_element_data'] = $record_insert_id+1000;
}In this example, how do I make it instead of "1000" make 1 appear as "001"?
Also what is the line of code where I'm going to put "//retrieve the id from last inserted data" after? I get errors when I update my code, I think my line numbers are not accurate with your reference.
Thanks!

Any suggestion?
Sorry for the delay, you can put the code after this line :
$record_insert_id = mysql_insert_id();Simply search for that code in post-function.php and I think you'll found it around line 1013 ~ 1020.
Anyway to change the entry id to '001' format, you can change the code to be like this :
//retrieve the id from last inserted data
if ($form_id == '1') {
$_SESSION['form_element_data'] = str_pad($record_insert_id,4,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
}You must log in to post.
