How to Replace ? to & in the URL in Redirect Plugin

hi,

I am trying to redirect my form to another chronoform using redirect plugin

the url I used in Target url is index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=direct?amount=700


It Gives me the error like

$_POST: Array ( [shoaib] => 800 [button_1] => Submit [79d5286ca2bb009c5c0d2793f1f068f9] => 1 [1cf1] => c50ebb0a50365bf2a75b944c8b659020 [chronoformname] => paypal1 )
There is no form with this name or may be the form is unpublished, Please check the form and the url and the form management

I tried by changing the url ? to & manually it works

like
index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=direct&amount=700

Is there any option to pass the value in redirect plugin using the & symbol not by ?.

Hi shaoib,

Make the Target URL index.php - without any part of the query string. Then put the query string parameters with fixed values in the "Extra Fields data" box:

option=com_chronocontact
chronoformname=direct
amount=700

Thanks Bob it works🙂 🙂 🙂

Hi Bob,

I am trying to redirect myform to paypal


using the the

<?php
$amount = JRequest::getVar('text_11', '', 'post');
 $return = 'http://mysite.org';
 header('Location: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=sample@sample.org&item_name=Donation¤cy_code=USD&amount='.$amount.'&return='.$return);
 exit();

?>

I am trying to pass the value of amount from myform field text_11.

Is this right method or can u pl explain how to redirect to paypal using redirect plugin.

Hi shoaib,

This will probably work when you have the code debugged. Personally I'd use the ReDirect plugin.
