Virtual field text submission for use in puzzle games


Johnsp65

Question

I am creating an armchair puzzle on a word press site with caspio data for back shop. To get from one level to next, users have to figure out a key word/solve based on a verse or painting providing the clue. 

Question: Can I use a submission form  with a virtual field for players to submit the correct phrase?

Hey guys! Just had an idea as well that I would like to share. What if you use a multi-step form for levels? Like, when the user passes the validation that @ParkLoey mentioned above, you can move on to the next level or the next DataPage like a multi-step form?

The game is such a nice idea and seems very doable in Caspio! Hope you get to successfully develop this @Johnsp65^_^

Thanks. This is the last problem I have. I'm looking for a simple data validation solution. I'd rather need build a multi page submission form if I don't have to. ... i just want to have a virtual field where the correct key word or phase has to entered so player gets to next level/chapter/url and I get notified of the player advancing for my leaderboard.

As for the validation part, you can try using JQuery to check certain keyword and validate it the stop submission if it's incorrect:

For stopping the submission: 

 

As for the notifying you when the player was advanced, you can use the Caspio standard notification functionality:
