We’re using an obfuscated free sign-up page for our site, but we have people registering in cohorts, and we’d like to distinguish them. Is it possible to pass values for hidden profile fields (which we already have, and use when importing users) via URL parameters? i.e., we’d like to send the following link to our first cohort: http://www.site.com/230482031?cohort=1 and then this link to the second group: http://www.site.com/230482031?cohort=2 and have that parameter stored in their profile – this is important for Mailchimp integration, so we can segment the resulting list for emails later on. I don’t think default field values will work, as they need to be per group, not even per form. Another solution might be to have a different signup form for future groups, but (a) that will create a mess of WP pages with random names, and (b) I’m not even sure we could customise profile fields with the form shortcode anyway. The parameter approach seems much simpler… But is it possible? Thanks, David. |
