df_preview role

Serge Tkachov

Hi,

We are not live yet with the forms, but will be going live very soon!

I have been using the following line in the html code:

]::true::

<input type="hidden" name="df_preview" value="true" />::]]

My understanding is that it allows the use of test credit card numbers like 4111..

This has been working correctly in our tests.

Now that we are about to go live, question:

Do we need to change this line or delete it so that non-41111. credit card numbers will go through?

Or by Convio setting our site to "live" mode, this <input> value/parameter will work correctly in live mode?

Serge,

What this code says is that the hidden input should only be included if the query string df_preview is set to true. So, as long as the URL does not contain this query string (which it shouldn't when constituents navigate to it), the form will process live transactions.
