We're keen to embed some CiviCRM forms (contribution and profile forms) in templates.

URL aliases in our current setup don't support this (attempting to create a Drupal URL alias for civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=7 or civicrm/contribute/transact&reset=1&id=7) will result in the user being served the CiviContribute dashboard page (or access denied if appropriate).

I'd like to identify the correct method to generate the first page of the CiviContribute form (or a registration profile) and output the HTML, so then I can use that code in a Drupal template. I was expecting to find a function which accepts some arguments (eg the ID of the Contribute page) and outputs the form HTML, but I haven't located it yet.

Also keen to experiment with embedding more than one form on a page, though Lobo has warned me we'll probably face session conflict issues if we generate the first page of several multistep QuickForm pages ... but I gotta try!

Any thoughts / experience welcome on this one

Cheers

Here's a "poor mans" CiviCRM alias:

Create a Page with the path alias you want to use. Set the input format to accept PHP. Set the body as something like:

Code: [Select]

<?php
drupal_goto('civicrm/profile/create', 'reset=1&gid=3');
?>

With the use of the arg() function, you can get real tricky and even feed variables to civicrm.
