How build a coupon system?

A client wants to promote his activity with promo cards. Cards report coupon code.
I’de like to check if a code is active before send form to prevent spam.
How can I made it?
Can I use adi_variables to store codes?

Thanks in advance :)

Re: How build a coupon system?

I’ve found a solution but I think it can be best…
Using adi_variables I set only 1 coupon code.
With adi_contact I check if code are the same:

<txp:zem_contact to="io@me.it">
<txp:zem_contact_email />
<txp:zem_contact_text label="Codice" />
<txp:zem_contact_secret label="valcodice" value='<txp:variable name=''coupon'' />' />
<txp:zem_contact_submit />
<txp:adi_contact_validate names="Codice,valcodice" type="equal" message="Il codice inserito non è corretto"  />
</txp:zem_contact>

If true with adi_gps I can set a conversion.

All suggestions are welcome :)

Re: How build a coupon system?

I think that it should be

<txp:zem_contact_secret label="valcodice" value='<txp:variable name="coupon" />' />

and not

<txp:zem_contact_secret label="valcodice" value='<txp:variable name=''coupon'' />' />

Re: How build a coupon system?

Hi there! I think I found a solution.
This is my way. Maybe I use too much plugin, but I’m not a programmer, so…

Plugins used:

• adi_contact
• smd_if
• zem_contact_reborn

First of all I set a form like this

<txp:zem_contact to="me@me.it" thanks_form="grazie">
<ul>
<li><txp:zem_contact_email /></li>
<li><txp:zem_contact_checkbox name="codecheckbox" label="Ho un codice coupon" required="0" /></li>
<li><txp:zem_contact_text name="code" label="Codice" required="0" /></li>
<txp:zem_contact_submit />
</ul>
<txp:adi_contact_checkboxes names="codecheckbox" />
<txp:adi_contact_combo names="codecheckbox" require="code" />
<txp:adi_contact_validate names="code" type="custom" pattern="my-regex" message="Il codice inserito non è corretto"  />
</txp:zem_contact>

adi_contact does code validation olny if codecheckbox is on and validate it basing on pattern I set.

I add few line of code to zem_contact_reborn at line 231before

$_POST = array();

Adding this line I set a global variable before zem_contact reborn clears post var.

if (isset($zem_contact_values['code'])) {
global $variable;
$variable['code'] = $zem_contact_values['code'];
}

In this way I can use smd_if to check if user had submitted code or not and set a conversion.
This is thanks_form

<txp:smd_if field="txpvar:code" operator="isused">
<p>Grazie. Ricordati di presentare la tua cartolina alla reception!</p>
<txp:else />
<p>Grazie</p>
</txp:if_variable>

What do you think about?
