How to merge two forms and have one submit?
Problem
I'm trying to combine two forms. A custom form and the user register form. I want the user to be able to fill in both and submit them together. How would I do this?
(Ideally the user register form won't appear if they're logged in.)
So Far
I tried calling two forms on the page but they have different submit buttons.
function postajob_page_callback() { $build = array(); $build['form_one'] = drupal_get_form('postajob_form'); $build['form_two'] = drupal_get_form('user_register_form'); return $build; } So I called the user register validate and submit handlers in the custom form validate and submit calls.
function postajob_form_validate($form, &$form_state) { user_register_validate($form, $form_state); ... } function postajob_form_submitform, &$form_state) { user_register_submit($form, $form_state); ... } This calls the function but because the form doesn't contain any of the fields (i.e. username, email, password etc.) it throws a horrible error:
Notice: Undefined index: administer_users in user_register_submit() (line 3824 of C:\XAMPP\htdocs\drupal5\modules\user\user.module). Notice: Undefined index: pass in user_register_submit() (line 3827 of C:\XAMPP\htdocs\drupal5\modules\user\user.module). Notice: Undefined index: mail in user_register_submit() (line 3838 of C:\XAMPP\htdocs\drupal5\modules\user\user.module). Notice: Undefined index: #user in user_register_submit() (line 3840 of C:\XAMPP\htdocs\drupal5\modules\user\user.module). Warning: Creating default object from empty value in entity_form_submit_build_entity() (line 8009 of C:\XAMPP\htdocs\drupal5\includes\common.inc). PDOException: SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '' for key 'name': INSERT INTO {users} (uid, created, data) VALUES (:db_insert_placeholder_0, :db_insert_placeholder_1, :db_insert_placeholder_2); Array ( [:db_insert_placeholder_0] => 165 [:db_insert_placeholder_1] => 1379868880 [:db_insert_placeholder_2] => a:6:{s:16:"ckeditor_default";s:1:"t";s:20:"ckeditor_show_toggle";s:1:"t";s:14:"ckeditor_width";s:4:"100%";s:13:"ckeditor_lang";s:2:"en";s:18:"ckeditor_auto_lang";s:1:"t";s:17:"mimemail_textonly";i:0;} ) in drupal_write_record() (line 7166 of C:\XAMPP\htdocs\drupal5\includes\common.inc). So I tried to merge the forms using info from [here][1] and I added the following two lines of code just before the submit button in the form.
function postajob_form($form, &$form_state) { .... $extra = user_register_form($form, $form_state); $form = array_merge($form, $extra); $form['submit'] = array( '#type' => 'submit', '#value' => t('Submit'), ); return $form; } This adds the form but seems to break the submit button and both submit buttons call the user_register submit not the custom form submit.
