    Hello,

    I’ve working on a design, when the page loads up the customer must fill in there name and email address.
    Is there a way for the information that’s filled in to be sent to the website host?

    Additionally when a customer completes a configuration there will be an option to save what they’ve created.
    The changes should be saved against the information they provided above i.e name and email address, This information can be used to load up only the configurations that customer created and not all configurations saved on the website.

    Is this possible if so how?

    The completed design will be embedded on a WordPress website.

    Hi,

    The first task is quite trivial. You can design a web form with Puzzles (check out the ready-to-use Inquiry Form snippet from the library) and send it to a web server. To process the data received on the server side you can use the built-in send-to-email feature of the Verge3D for WordPress plugin or use some third-party form-sending solution.

    The second task requires some serialization (e.g. converting data to a form that can be stored/transmitted over network) of the user configuration and providing this data to a web server. Possible scenarios of how this can be achieved:

    1. Using special hidden form fields augmenting the name/email form from above. For example: “color”: “red”, “size”: “XL” and so on
    2. Using some human-friendly textural representation of the configuration and providing this as hidden text field of the form being sent (this makes it a variation of method #1)
    3. Serializing configuration as URL params of the app page and providing the full link to a web server via hidden text field (again this would be a variation of method #1).
    4. Serializing all configurations to JSON (or perhaps CSV) and attaching this JSON to the form as a file.
    5. Using registration/authentication mechanisms of WordPress and implementing custom-made account where users can store all their configurations.

    Methods 1-4 can be developed with just Puzzles and might use common server-side solutions described above. Method 5 is the hardest as it will require custom PHP coding.
