Hey gd-team,
I’m looking for a filter or hook to modify a custom field on the first submit of the place and also on all updates.
Could you please help which is the right one to go with?

Hi Christoph,

Could you be more specific about what you’re trying to change here? Perhaps a link and some screenshots?

Thanks!

Hi Kor,
thanks for swift feedback. Sure. Here we go.
I have a hidden field in the form that shall be used for a QR code.
This QR code will be generated automatically from the address and telephone fields entered.
See 1.jpg (field icon called here)

Now, just after pressing the review your listing button (2.jpg) I want to generate this QR code on the fly.
So it must be available before the review screen shown in 3.jpg.

Also the same must be executed if a user is updating the listing itself.

Best regards
Christoph

Hi Christoph,

I asked to the developers to read your question and provide an answer. They should have enough details to provide a solution.

They’ll let us know asap.

Thanks

You can simply manipulate the $_REQUEST data before it’s proccesed
```
add_action('geodir_detail_before_main_content', '_my_geodir_action_geodir_set_preview_post', 7);
function _my_geodir_action_geodir_set_preview_post(){
global $post, $preview, $gd_session;
    $is_backend_preview = (is_single() && !empty($_REQUEST['post_type']) && !empty($_REQUEST['preview']) && !empty($_REQUEST['p'])) && is_super_admin() ? true : false; // skip if preview from backend
    if (!$preview || $is_backend_preview) {
        return;
    }// bail if not previewing

//lets check what info we have
print_r($_REQUEST);

}
```
