Is it possible with FT to use dynamic data to fill in the Form Name after the form has been finalized.

Hi Bwaye,
You mean display a different title on the submissions page - and any other pages?
Very interesting...! but out of the box, unfortunately no. That information is pulled directly from the database. In order to do it, you'd need to wedge in some code (via a module) to intercept and change that value before it appears in the pages & other core PHP code. It's very possible, but it would depend on exactly what you're trying to do.
What dynamic data would it depend on? Something to do with the current logged-in client, presumably?

I knew it would required a little poking around in the code. I have 40 forms which I am using as a online silent auction which will repeat every year. The only thing changing is the date of the auction(s) every Friday. I named them week1, week2, week3, etc. As you can see it can get confusing for the client.
I was hoping it would be easy as popping in a line of code. <?php echo $row_auction['date']; ?>
I could just rename the forms and have the client repopulate the both fields. The one from the form and the name.
Thanks,
The new version seems pretty stable thus far. I am getting some odd behaviors but it seems to be mostly user centered.

Hi Bwaye,
Yeah, it's pretty stable. But I've been surprised by a few bugs that have cropped up here and there. Minor stuff, but justify keeping the script in Beta.
Good luck with the mod.
