I am not even sure if it is cookies I need here, perhaps there is a better method.
I currently have a page with links for downloads. To get to this page the user will have to submit their email address. I am using the plugin Contact Form 7 for the email entry. I then plan on redirecting this to the page. The plugin allows me to add IDs to the submit button.
Should I be setting a cookie here using JavaScript? I won't be able to put JavaScript into the form, but I can have the form on my own page template.
Heres the outputted html, Im reluctant to go and try and change this as its a plugin..
