=== Short Summary ===

The Gk Form Contact Saver plugin provides the capability, through a custom post type called contacts, of saving front end form submissions via AJAX.

== Description ==

The plugin gives your wordpress install the capability to store front end form data that you either created manually, or via any plugin, via AJAX methodology instead of using POST or GET params, into a custom post type called "contacts", specifically stored under wordpress as the post type "gk_unload_contacts".

The front end form needs to adhere to the standard data available for use via the plugin. The data includes following fields: First Name, Middle Initial, Last Name, Email, Primary Phone, Mobile Phone, Street Address, City, State, Zip, DOB, Language, and Referrer. You do not to make use of all fields, only a subset of such fields.

Hooking your form into the plugin can be easily done. You would need to add in to you form's code a JS function that you would hook to a new submit button. Alternatively, you can also hook the function upon the page unload functionality, so that any user who visited your page and filled some of the data, will still end up submitting this information to you.

A sample hooking JS function would look as follows (this is hooking into the unload event of the page): jQuery( window ).on('beforeunload',function($) { jQuery.ajax({ crossOrigin: true, url: ajax_url,//needs to be intialized first type: "POST", async: false, data: { action : 'store_contact_form_unload', fname : jQuery('#GK_CUST_FIRSTNAME').val(), mname : jQuery('#GK_CUST_MI').val(), lname : jQuery('#GK_CUST_LASTNAME').val(), dob : jQuery('#GK_CUST_DOB').val(), stadd : jQuery('#GK_CM_ADDRESS2').val(), city : jQuery('#GK_CM_CITY').val(), state : jQuery('#GK_CM_STATE').val(), zip : jQuery('#GK_CM_ZIP').val(), lang : jQuery('#GK_CUST_BILL_TYPE').val(), pphone: jQuery('#GK_PHONE1').val(), mphone: jQuery('#GK_PHONE2').val(), email : jQuery('#GK_EMAIL_ADDRESS').val(), refer : jQuery('#GK_REFERRED_BY').val(), }, /success : function( response ) { console.log( "success response:"+response ); },/ }); //bring up confirmation to ensure we have enough time to send AJAX return; });

Once submissions are being saved using the plugin, they will actually show in the backend interface under the relevant "contacts" tab. For screenshots refer to the screenshots section below.
