The “Integrate with Ninja Form” functionality in the InputWP plugin enables you to seamlessly integrate an “Event” with a form created using the Contact Form 7 plugin. This integration allows you to associate a date/time picker with a specific text input field in your form, enhancing user interaction and providing advanced date/time selection capabilities.
How to use
- Accessing the Feature:
- Log in to your WordPress admin panel.
- Navigate to “InputWP” in the left-hand menu.
- Click on “Integration.”
- Under the “Form integration” section, click on “Add New” to create a new integration or edit an existing one.
- Step 1: Name and Method:
- Provide a name for the integration using the “Label (Optional)” input field. This label helps you keep track of multiple integrations.
- Select “Ninja Form” from the “Method” select input field. NOTE: Please make sure you have the Ninja Form plugin installed and activated with at least one form created, before proceeding.
- Click “Next” to proceed to the next step. The system will retrieve a list of available Ninja Form forms that you’ve already created.
- Step 2: Connect:
- Use the “Contact Form” select input field to choose the form you want to integrate.
- Use the “Event” select input field to associate the chosen form with a specific “Event.”
- Step 3: Identify:
- Assign each input field to one of three categories: “Guest,” “Email,” and “Date picker.” These assignments help process and manage the data effectively.
- Use the select input fields associated with “Guest,” “Email,” and “Date picker” to match the input fields in your Ninja Form form.
- Saving Changes: After completing the three steps, scroll down to the bottom of the integration section and click the “Save” button to save the integration settings.
- Result: Upon saving, the date/time picker will be automatically injected into the specified text input field in your Ninja Form form. This allows users to use the advanced date/time selection options associated with the selected “Event.”
Benefits of Integrating with Ninja Form
- Enhanced User Experience: By integrating a date/time picker with your Ninja Form form, you provide users with an intuitive and user-friendly way to select dates and times.
- Efficient Data Management: The integration ensures that guest information, email addresses, and selected date/time data are accurately associated and processed for later use, such as importing/exporting events.
