Hello,
First off thanks for the great component and fantastic forum. I usually get all my answers by searching here but I'm stumped on this one.
I have a client that wants to locally store the results of a form but also push the information to iContact. cURL seems to be the obvious choice to achieve this task unless I want to start tinkering with the API.
Has anybody had any luck doing this? Everything else about the form is working fine, storing locally , sending confirmation emails, etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Matthew

Thanks Bob,
I have tried the cURL plug-in but it doesn't seem to be working. After a week off from this I am looking at it with fresh eyes and realizing where the problem is.
It's possible that the many hidden form fields is a problem and I'm interpreting the instructions wrong.
I added all of them plus their values in the Extra Fields area but maybe I need to just add the Extra Fields equal to the fields in my form they correspond to.
I have:
clientID="client id value sent"
but maybe it should be:
clientID=clientID
I'll give this a whirl and post back the results.
Cheers!

Hi mcmullen1ny,
If there are hidden fields in your form HTML then they should show up as individual entries on the CURL plugin configuration.
Bob
PS clientID="client id value sent" is definitely wrong.

Hi Brandy,
I replied to your email about this a little while ago.
Have you tried turning on DeBug in the plug-in and the form to see what results are shown there?

Hi Bob,
I got your email. Thanks. I'll try this and let you know if it works.

Bob,
Turning on DeBug does not appear to fix the problem. The form still works, however no new contacts are added to iContact.
Thanks,

Bob,
I fixed the problem. All fields were set correctly. The CURL plugin wasn't activated.
Thanks for all of your time and assistance.
