I'm creating a form for members of an organisation to provide some data to go into a completely new table. It would be useful if one of the fields in the new table could be the id from the main membership table - but I don't want the members to be directly updating the main table.
What I have in mind would be tacking ?pers_id='{u3a_people___id}' or something similar onto the end of a link to the new form that I'll send out using a list email plugin.
So the questions are:
1. How would I pass the id in the link?
2. Can I use a SEF url?
3. How would I populate the pers_id element in the table with the value from the url?
Just to emphasize that the members will be creating new records in the new table, not accessing existing records.
