Hello everyone.
I want to pass some the value of email from one page to another. I am using the MailClimp and WordPress as platform.
I try pass the value with POST as option.
In page 1:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['varname'] = $var_value;` ?>
and inside the form :
name="varname" value=""
in page 2 :
<?php
session_start();
$var_value = $_POST['varname']; ?>
and inside the form :
name="varname" value="<?php echo $_POST['var_value']; ?>"
But the value of email not show me… Any feedback or idea how can do that?
Thanks in advanced.

You are loading it into $_SESSION not $_POST so that’s where you need to read it back from.

New updates :
1st page :
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['varname'] = $var_value; ?>
inside the form
name="varname" value=""
2nd page :
<?php
session_start();
$var_value = $_SESSION['varname'];?>
inside the form :
name="varname" value="<?php echo $SESSION['varname'];?>"
but the problem still remaining. Not passed my email value.
In your first page when you assign
$_SESSION['varname'] = $var_value;
$var_value is not going to exist. It can’t exist because session_start(); is your first line of code. So, setting your session variable needs to come further down the page after $var_value has been assign a value.

So you think that need to remove? I am asking sorry, but i am newbie for this. I don’t have so strong dev skills.
I think we need to see your full code because you should be passing the variable as a POST variable but for some reason are using a SESSION variable. Just seeing these snippet of code isn’t allowing anyone to help you sufficiently.

I have not yet looked through the whole thing, but what struck me at the beginning was that you are setting a session to a variable which has not been defined.
<?php
session_start();
$SESSION['varname'] = $varvalue;
If this is the start of the script, where has $varvalue been defined?

@SamA74 i update the code.
Thanks for posting your code. I note that both pages include a form. Can you explain what variable you are passing? I can’t seem to find $var_value…

Thank you too for the response. Yes i have 2 forms and i try to pass the value of email. From 1 page to another, but in some points of code i make some mistakes and i try to find them.

You have changed the name from $varvalue to $var_value at the start of the script, but the variable has still not been defined.

I think that i was little confused about the values and variables.
I think it would help understand if you were consistent in the variable nameso you have $_SESSION['varname'] = $varname; and $varname = $_SESSION['varname'];
However, $varname is set when the user enters their email address in the form, which is then posted to the manage.com website, so I’m not clear how you’re going to get the value across to the other page.

I want to thank you all for the help, the true is that i was little confused in which way need to follow for pass the value between forms. Any other suggestion?

I think we have a clearer idea of what you are trying to achieve, but we’re not quite there yet.
We seem to have page 1 which when the form is submitted goes to manage.com and the same thing with page 2, so how are page 1 and page 2 associated?

OK i create i wireframe for this. Now is clearer what i try to do?
Edit : If it can be possible it will be more helpful if a moderator add this screen in my original post, i can’t edit.
Thanks for explaining. The problem I see is that neither page has the email address for very long. As I say, in both cases it is Posted to manage.com once the form’s submit button is pressed. I’m not sure whether this can be achieved in PHP without a clumsy change in the flow. It might be (better) achieved using JavaScript.
