Hallo,

In Chrono Form, how do I automatically assign a unique reference number to each form a user submitted?

1. I intend to let my users know this reference number, in case they need to come back to change things.
2. Its also for visitors to the site to use this reference number to find the author
3. Last, it's for managing the database

Cheers!

Hi Purple Knight,

ChronoForms assigns a unique cf_id to each entry in the table. You can add this to the email if you you set the Database save to take place 'Before Emails'. Thsi will give you a predicable serial number 1, 2, 4, . . . OR you can create a unique random id and link this to the record (the code for this is in the forms somewhere).
