[div wfd-id="156"]Dear Support,[div wfd-id="155"][div wfd-id="167"]the Buttons in Chronoforms7 don't get the name-attribute anymore. If you have 2 or more buttons. There is no direct method to detect which button has fired the submit.[div wfd-id="166"][div wfd-id="169"]According to this post this seems to be a bug.

Best regards

I found out how to set the Name-Attribut. Feel free do adujust my
solution. I Added the name attribute generation under

wp-content\plugins\chronoforms\chronog3\helpers\html.php

Line 98

Edit to make the code better I have added a exlusion if Name or ID is set

 //Button Needs Name for getting submitted right. Collie-IT, Anne K. Frey 12.05.2021
 if(in_array($node['tag'], ['button'])){ 
    if(isset($node['content']) && is_array($node['content']) && sizeof($node['content']) >0 && !isset($node['attrs']['name'])){
       if(isset($node['attrs']['id'])){
          $out[] ="name='".$node['attrs']['id']."'";
       }else{
          $out[] ="name='".$node['content'][0]."'";
       }
    }
 }


 //Missing ButtonIDs
 //Button Needs Name for getting submitted right. Collie-IT, Anne K. Frey 12.05.2021
 if(in_array($node['tag'], ['button'])){ 
    if(isset($node['content']) && is_array($node['content']) && sizeof($node['content']) >0 && !isset($node['attrs']['id'])){
       $out[] ="id='".$node['content'][0]."'";
    }
 }

A nother way to deal with the issue is to add the name and ID attibute to every button via HTML-Attributues.

To add one comment on this.
If you have multiple submit buttons add 2 HTML attributes, NAME and VALUE.
Give all the submit buttons the same and a unique value.
In the action section of the submission page, The name value will be sent with the form and you can check for the value and code accordingly.
