Hidden field update on donation forms

David Chrystal

I'd like to add a hidden true/false field update on some donation forms.  Its something that's easy to do on surveys, but I can't figure out how to do it on donation forms.  Any ideas?

David,

 

Can you share info about what kind of hidden info you're trying to pass through the form?

I think you could just add the field normally, and then hide it with a bit of CSS. You can even stick that css in a caption, so you don't have to mess with the wrapper or anything.

 

Add the field.

View source and find the field in the code.

Copy the ID of the TR or TBODY surrounding your field. It should look like this: <tbody class="DFEC_el_wrapper" id="donor-email-opt-in.18679">

Add the css to hide it...

 

<style>

#donor-email-opt-in.18679 { display: none; }

</style>
