You can just pay the $74 difference by using this form http://www.formidablepro2pdf.com/upgrade/ to upgrade.
Support for merging images to fillable PDFs is now available by updating the plugin to the newest version released today.
The function maps Formidable’s Image URL and File Upload (single) fields to PDF text fields.
. If the image height is more than the text field, the image height and width will be reduced proportionately to the max height of the PDF text field.. If the attached file not an image, the file path will be merged to the PDF text field.

Better to link you to Formidable Forms site, they do a great job of explaining the email feature here… https://formidablepro.com/knowledgebase/email-notifications/Issue resolved. It was a conflict with a plugin or the theme, we made a change to our plugin and created an update to resolve the issue.
Thank you for using Formidable PRO2PDF, we remain at your service.
If possible, please send temporary login credentials to support at formidablepro2pdf dot com and we’ll take a look.
The functionality appears to be by design by Formidable Forms where the UTC time is saved, not the local time. We are examining options to show the local time when merged into a PDF.
We will update you again soon.
More info here: https://formidablepro.com/help-desk/created_at-and-updated_at-field-in-db-formidable-tables-use-utc-not-local-timezone/
To be clear, the Formidabe: Created At and the Formidable: Update At are the date/time the Formidable Form data was created/updated, not the PDF file. And, the Formidable: Update At will always be the same as the Formidabe: Created At until the dataset is actually updated.
We are not able to recreate an issue where both are the same after a dataset update, or where they are different from the WordPress Time Zone setting. If possible please send temporary login credentials to support at formidablepro2pdf dot com and we’ll take a look.
A couple of ideas come to mind…
. Formidable Form has a file upload field that may be used to organize and store the pdf on your server.
. Our development services can provide you with personalized customization of the plugin by adding an optional shortcode parameter that would save the PDF to a folder on the server, and provide organization of the PDFs if needed. If interested, please send an email to support at formidablepro2pdf dot com to receive a custom development offer.
Thank you for the positive review!
Please provide a workflow as I do not fully understand what you are attempting to accomplish.
Current Time gets data from the WordPress Timezone setting. You’ll need to adjust the Timezone from the WordPress Dashboard under “Settings => General => Timezone”.
Regarding current time within the user profile, that’s a question for the outstanding support team at WordPress.org.

Looks like reply emails are going to tim at webswift if you select the “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” checkbox when send or reply to a message – you may need to check spam as you should receive an email for each reply.
We will add the ability to map to an image in the next release. Should be done on or before Monday, November 30th. I will update you with any restrictions or considerations once the update is ready.

We have added two more “UniqueID” counters to the “Webform Data Field ID” dropdown list. Update the plugin to use the counters.
1. Formdiable: Count Entry – provides a unique number for each user entry – starting at 1.
2. Formidable: Count PDF – provides a unique number for each PDF output – starting at 1.The new Formidable: Count PDF counter may be reset by creating a duplicate of the field map layout – the counter for the new layout will start at 1.
The new Formidable: Count Entry counter cannot be reset as it actually counts the number of form entries.
Your shortcode was missing the layout=x parameter and will not work without it…
OLD SHORTCODE = [formidable-download form=”contact3″ dataset=[id]]
NEW SHORTCODE = [formidable-download form=”contact3″ dataset=[id] layout=”52″]Now it works correctly, without the merge error!
Not sure. To create a “UniqueID” field, Formidable suggests using their Auto Increment shortcode [auto_id start=1], instead of the DatasetID.
1. The shortcode can be fully dynamic, including the current dataset if you change the static id to [id].
2. There are no restrictions in the $2 trial version. We can login to your install to quickly identify the issue if you email login credentials to support at formidablepro2pdf dot com, or email the PDF file and a screenshot of the entire plugin screen with the form, dataset and fieldmap selected, and a link to the Formidable form (if possible) so we can further help with the setup.
Some common issues to check for;
1. Checkbox and Radio Button values are case sensitive.
2. Changing PDF form field names requires the fieldmap to be updated.
3. “Garbage In / Garbage Out” – The selected dataset must contain data in all fields for data to merge to all PDF fields.I logged in and tested both Field Map Layouts and they are working as expected. You may have to wait a few seconds after selecting the Field Map Layout as there are 196 mapped fields that need to load and can causes a timeout, however that issue does not exist when using the shortcode to create the PDFs.
Update the plugin to the latest version to use the new “Formidable: Dataset ID” merge field. The new field is the unique number of each form submission.
Let us know if you need anything else, as we remain at your service.
One day or less.
This post is NOT private, but we do not need to log in to your site as everything seems to be working correctly.
We are now attempting to add the “Current Dataset ID” to the “Webform Data Field ID” dropdown list, which will give you a unique number for each user.
Please give us some time to come up with a solution, I will post an update here soon.
Got it! Thank you for the explanation.
The only other unique value is the Formidable_Entry Key. It will work for you if your “Card Number” can include letters. If not, let us know and we’ll see what else we may be able to add for you.
The only reason “formidable_userid” would be empty is if the form’s user is not logged into the WordPress installation.
Questions for you:
. Is the user logged in?
. Can you see the userid in the Formidable form?If the form user is logged into WordPress and you can see the userid in the Formidable form, we may need to take a look at your installation. If possible, please send temporary credentials to support (at) formidablepro2pdf DOT com.
Yes, the plugin is able to map Formidable’s Dynamic Field.
To see an example, enter your name into the first name field of the this demo, then open this demo to select the name you entered, and test the Dynamic Dropdown located on the right side of the form.
This demo is an example of mapping all Formidable fields.
. Although we would like to support Contact Form 7 in the future, we are not currently working on the intergration.
. Yes, the premium version allows PDFs to be attached to one or more Formidable “Email Actions”. Additionally, each “Email Action” can have multiple TO, CC and BCC addresses. Here’s more info about Formidable’s Email Action
. The plugin is just compatible with the Formidable’s Signature Add-on which is included with Formidable’s Small Business version or can be purchased for $19.00 if you are using the Individual version.We remain at your service.
Due to how the Adobe Acrobat Checkbox Method works, there is no way to map an “unknown value” to a PDF checkbox field because the PDF checkbox field requires a preset “Value” to work.
With that said, here’s a couple of work-arounds we use;
1. Use Formidable’s Conditional Fomatting option to Show/Hide the “OTHER” textbox field when the “OTHER” checkbox is checked. Then, map the Formidable checkbox to the PDF Form’s “OTHER” checkbox field and the Formidable Form’s “OTHER” textbox field to the PDF Form’s “OTHER” textbox field.2. Change the Adobe PDF Checkbox field to a single text box which will display the value from the formidable form checkbox field. (…save a lot of space on your PDF!)
Add inline=1 to the shortcode to open in the browser, instead for the default PDF viewer.
For interanet use you must have the “Unlimited Intranet” version of the plugin.
