Passing Variables to postsignup.php

[aniemi]

I'm trying to pass some variables to the postsignup.php but so far I've not been able to.

I'd like the affiliate id to be passed so I can include it when posting to a different application. Is this possible?

TIA

I think, that this is not a possible. I send this request to our programmers and I let you know.

Thanks! Maybe add it to session data further up in the .class?
I'm grasping at straws, but I need to figure it out.

I heard back from the ticket I put in, they also said it's impossible. But I've never let that stop me...so I figured it out, for others who may need this functionality, here's what I did:

I set a cookie in SignupUserNew.class.php on line 196
setcookie("cookie_name", $this->user->getColumn('userid'));

then on postsignup.php I can access the userid via the cookie I set.

I hope, that your solution will be useful for other users. Thank you

Thanks very much for this thread, just what I was after!

But could you please tell me what code to put on the thankyou page, to display the collected userid cookie?

I use "thanks.htm" as the post-signup page, instead of the standard "postsignup.php" file.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Same here... I would to find out the code needed on the thanks.htm page.
