In my plugin I have an action in my form that is supposed to take me to a template page called go, but when I click on it wordpress tells me that it does not exist but if I refresh the page then it loads up the go page. Any ideas why it wont just load normally and how to fix it?
<form name="trailer-bulk-waste-free" method="post" action="go">
<input type="hidden" name="date" value="<?php echo"$date"; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="pickup" value="<?php echo"$pu" ?>">
There is a bunch of other inputs in here but probably redundant to put.
<p><input type="submit" name="CONTINUE" value="CONTINUE" />
An easy and straight forward way is to assign the go page template to a page. Let's say ID of that page is 77, then do this.
<form name="trailer-bulk-waste-free" method="post" action="<?php the_permalink( 77 ); ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="date" value="<?php echo"$date"; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="pickup" value="<?php echo"$pu" ?>">
There is a bunch of other inputs in here but probably redundant to put.
<p><input type="submit" name="CONTINUE" value="CONTINUE" /></p>
</form>
Hopefully, this will work as you expect it to.
Try it with another browser to see if it might be from the browser's cache.

This is my code for the radio buttons. I would like them to be displayed in the settings page and save it for future use.
<form method="post" action="options.php">
<?php
wp_nonce_field('update-options');
$rsp_position = get_option('rsp_position');
if(empty($rsp_position)){
$rsp_position = "true";
} else {
$rsp_position = get_option('rsp_position');
}
?>
<p><strong>Ad Placing:</strong><br />
<input type="radio" id="1" name="rsp_position" <?php if($rsp_position == 'true') echo 'checked="checked"'; ?> value="true" />yes <br />
<input type="radio" id="2" name="rsp_position" <?php if($rsp_position == 'false') echo 'checked="checked"'; ?> value="flase" />no <br />
<input type="text" name="publisher-id" size="45" value="<?php echo get_option('publisher-id'); ?>" />
</p>
<p><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Save" /></p>
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="update" />
<input type="hidden" name="page_options" value="publisher-id" />
<?php
settings_fields( 'save_position' );
register_setting( 'save_position', 'rsp_position');
?>
You're going along the right lines, but your calls to settings_fields and register_setting aren't in the right place.
Read Otto's tutorial on this, it's a good introduction to the settings API.
Basically, add an admin_init action and in the callback register the setting and use add_settings_field to create the form items.
Then in your add_options_page callback you make the call to settings_fields to display the entries created with add_settings_field.
If you're still struggling having worked through Otto's tutorial, post back again.
EDIT: Following pastebin entry.
The failure to save is a result of your validation function not returning the expected value. The preg_match is not finding the right value and turning the string to '' (nothing) before saving - so it looks like it's not saving, when in fact it's saving nothing.

I am using wordpress 3.3.1 with twentyten theme,
i have created a plugin to create a custom form,
i have successfully installed this in wordpress,
my plugin file code is as follows
<?php
function guest_event_form()
{
if(isset($_POST['submit']) and $_POST['action']=='new registration')
{
global $wpdb;
$wpdb->query("Insert Query...");
}
else
{
?>
<form method="POST" action="" name="guest_registration" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" id="name" name="name" value="">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Register Me Now"/>
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="new registration" />
</form>
<?php
}
}
add_shortcode( 'guest_event_form', 'guest_event_form' );
?>
whenever i am submitting this form, i returns to same page with search results,
so i guess the problem whenever i submit this form, wordpress takes this submit action as a search action, and it starts search
how do i overcome this problem??
The Problem is because of following form element's id
<input type="text" id="name" name="name" value="">
name is one of the wordpress internal variable
Change it like this:
<input type="text" id="customername" name="customername" value="">
I been trying to fix this error but I am having no luck at all.
I am developing a WP theme and everything works fine except when I try to search for something that will return 0 results. When there are results everything works fine.
If there are 0 results WP redirects me to http://mywebsite.com/url displaying a "Not Found" error.
Here I copy my code for searchform.php that may help someone willing to help me.
<form action="<?php echo home_url(); ?>" id="searchform" method="get" role="search">
<input type="text" id="s" name="s" value=""/>
<input type="submit" value="Search" id="searchsubmit" style="display: none;"/>
</form>
I need to incorporate a "Search" feature within my WordPress CMS site that I am currently developing and was hoping to attach this feature/plugin to the following piece of code and unsure how to do this in WordPress, i.e.:
<div id="search_box">
<form method="get" action="/search" id="form">
<input name="white_box" type="text" class="search" value="Search site" size="19" maxlength="80" id="white_box" onfocus="if (this.value=='Search site') this.value = ''"/>
<input name="submit" type="image" class="submit" value="submit" src="images/search_btn.jpg" />
</form>
</div>
I basically want to incorporate a "Search" feature on my site.

how do i debug such things in wordpress?
I think you need to be using register_setting() - the WordPress core and API has changed quite considerably since that book was published.
