Not able to retrieve $_POST values

Question

I have order a plugin which works fine on my local computer and on the developers test server. But the plugin is not working on my prod. server.

After registretion, I should get $_GET = add_success. But I'm getting edit_success. In the code, they are cheking different $_POST values, one of them being 'mode'.

Trying to output $_POST["mode"], gives me an empty result, even though I can see the data using Firebug:

default_role         subscriber
license_agreement_page  on
mode           addRec
terms             on
user_email     [email protected]
user_fname     sdf
user_lname     sdf
username       ssdfsdf
web_address

Trying a simple echo $_POST["mode"], I get nothing.
Also tried print_r($_POST), and that only gives me Array ( ) 1.

Answer 1

Is it just "mode" or every variable? Have you tried printing the POST array?

Answer 2

Do you redirect the browser in any way, using header("location"); or rewriterules?

If you use header("location: otherpage.php"); then otherpage.php will not receive the post data. You need to look into cURL to pass post data to a url.

Answer 3

Try checking the array content's with:

print_r($_POST);

Answer 4

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but if you're getting results in $_GET, you shouldn't be getting them in $_POST. Make sure the HTML form on the production server has method="post" instead of method="get".
