If our site allows registered users we will often find that we need to link the user to the saved data. This document shows you how to get the User ID and save it into a form input so that it can be saved with the form data.

Simple to use

This How-to document links to Chapter 4, ‘Save form data in the database’ of the “ChronoForms 3.1 for Joomla! sites cookbook”.

Important: This document was written for ChronoForms v3 on Joomla! 1.5; it may be possible to adapt the contents to ChronoForms v4 and/or Joomla! 1.6 but this has not been tested.
