Dynamic Select for Contact Form 7

Adopt my Contact Form 7 (CF7) Plugins

I am putting my 3 CF7 plugins up for adoption.

The reasons for this are:

• I no longer use CF7 for my clients.
  • It is too difficult to use for my average client
  • It does not support the features my clients want
  • The authour of CF7 makes too many backwards compatibility breaking changes
  • I simply do not have time to keep up with maintenence for plugins I no longer use

These plugins do have users and are usefull for those that use CF7 and I'd rather someone else takes them over than let them die.

The 3 plugins involved are:

• At WP
  • Dynamic Select for Contact Form 7
  • Hidden Field for Contact Form 7
  • Dynamic Recipient for Contact Form 7
• On Github
  • Dynamic Select for Contact Form 7
  • Hidden Field for Contact Form 7
  • Dynamic Recipient for Contact Form 7

These plugins were built to work togther

• The dynamic select to populate drop downs
• The dynamic recipient send emails to different people
• The hidden field to supply the fields that the recipient plugin needs to work

If you are interested in adopting all 3 of these plugins please open up an issue in any of the Github repos for any of these plugins. Below is how I would like to do this, if you have other ideas you can bring them up when you open the issue.

• You fork all of these repos
• You maintian, update and improve these plugins as needed an send me pull requests
• You take over supporting these plugins on Github and WP (answer questions etc)
• I will, for a short time continue to update the WP repo with your changes
• At some time in the future I will transfer ownership of the both the Github and WordPress repos to you.

Add dynamically generated select fields (Drop-down menus) to forms in Contact Form 7 using filters

How To Use

1. Create a filter to be called from your CF7 Dynamic Select Field.

Example Filter:

function cf7_dynamic_select_do_example1($choices, $args=array()) {
	// this function returns an array of 
	// label => value pairs to be used in
	// a the select field
	$choices = array(
		'-- Make a Selection --' => '',
		'Choice 1' => 'Choice 1',
		'Choice 2' => 'Choice 2',
		'Choice 3' => 'Choice 3',
		'Choice 4' => 'Choice 4',
		'Choice 5' => 'Choice 5'
	);
	return $choices;
} // end function cf7_dynamic_select_do_example1
add_filter('wpcf7_dynamic_select_example1', 'cf7_dynamic_select_do_example1', 10, 2)

2. Enter the filter name and any arguments into the Fitler Field when adding a Dynamic Select Field. For example, if we need to supply a term_id so that the filter can get the posts in a category the filter value entered would look something like this:

my-filter term_id=9

Do Not Include any extra spaces or quotes arround values, names or the =

You can pass any number are arguments to your filter and they will be converted into an array. For example the following:

my-filter product-type=101 brand=500

This will call the function assocaited with the filter hook 'my-filter' with an arguments the argument array of:

$args = array(
    'product-type' => 101,
    'brand'        => 500
)

Your filter must return an array. The array must be a list of "Label" => "Value" pairs. For mor information see the example in cf7-dynamic-select-examples.php
