Hi!
​
Thanks for great component, using it for about 10 years. And please explain
​
If I'm trying to get global var, I'm writing {global:var_name}
​
But if I need to get global variable value by php code, how to write?
​
It is no explanation here https://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/74-chronoforms/chronoforms6/5289-variable-shortcodes
​
Thanks

Hi Tempus,
​
Please try turning the Debugger on - you should then see all the variables with their names and values.

Thanks, but it didn't help. Somehow global vars never show up in the Debugger.
I am taking their names from admin site of the CF7.

I've tried different php codes to get global var value, but I can not guess the right one

any news on this?

what are you trying to get ?

The question is: How to access global variables in php?

I've set up some global vars on "Form" level and need to access them inside a custom code with php.
Like https://www.chronoengine.com/users/profile/86267 "I've tried different php codes to get global var value, but I can not guess the right one"

It's about clientId & clientSecret which i need to reuse in different custom code actions.

generally any variables set with

$this->set("varname", value);

are available with

$this->get("varname");

Hey,

i'm talking about:
Joomla Backend => Chronoforms 7 => Upper Menu "Settings" => "Settings Manager" => Global Vars.

How can i access the values?

$this->get("varname");

where "varname" is the name of the variable doesn't work...

{global:varname}

you can not use that in PHP, unless you set them through a variables action
