Mindvalley Post & Get Variables

Outputs $_POST or $_GET variable values using shortcodes.

Super duper uberly useful on tracking scripts on eCommerce thank you pages.

Example:

• $_POST[’email’] > [post_var name=”email”]
• $_GET[‘txn_id’] > [get_var name=”txn_id”]

For Array values :

• $_POST[‘user’][’email’] > [post_var] name=”user[email]” [/post_var]
• $_GET[‘user’][‘first_name’] > [get_var] name=”user[first_name]” [/get_var]
• $_GET[‘user’][‘address’][‘line1’] > [get_var] name=”user[address][line1]” [/get_var]

Note: Remember to wrap the name attribute in double quotes (“).

1. Upload plugin folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3. Enjoy!

Why I can’t get some of the URL variables?

WordPress has a set of reserved GET variables that is used for page querying. For example, ‘name’ or ‘page_id’ or ‘id’ can’t be used without having some unexpected results.

Array variables are not showing up.

Verify that you wrap your the variable settings within a double quote (“), or else it won’t work.
