Merging values from multiple inputs into one
Mailocator allows you to serialize the data submitted from the form into a single field before submitting, which is useful, for example, when submitting a date.
Case study:
Merge month and year into one field and send it to ESP
See how easy it is to merge values from two selections - month and year - into one field and send this field to a third-party tool (newsletter subscription).
Create the necessary
select tags and add the necessary options, for example:<select name="year">
<option value="1999">1999</option>
<option value="2019">2019</option>
<option value="2029">2029</option>
</select>
<select name="mon">
<option value="jan">jan</option>
<option value="feb">feb</option>
</select>Add a hidden input that will contain the combined value of the month and year.
Name the input according to the name of the custom field in your tool and add the prefix opt_, for example
opt_dateAdd the
data-merge attribute and enter the names from the selections for month and year year | mon separated by a value |Add a class to the input
mlctr-ext-merge<input type="hidden" name="opt_date" data-merge="year|mon" class="mlctr-ext-merge"/>You can merge any number of values.
