Question Custom Field for Thread

I'm trying to add a custom field for threads in a specific category.

I've added a field to the database table fb_messages. I've setup a url to pass the value of the custom field to the create a new message form:

index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=10&func=post&do=reply&catid=8&myfld=439'

I've modified the fb_write.html.php file to include the custom field as a hidden form input.

<input type="text" name="myfld" value="<?php echo $_GET; ?>" />

I've also verified that the value is getting to the form by outputting the value to the page.

Now, the part that's not working. I've modified the code in post.php to insert the custom field into the database, but it's not getting the value to the insert code:

$kunena_db->setQuery("INSERT INTO #__fb_messages
(myfld,parent,thread,catid,name,userid,email,subject,time,ip,topic_emoticon,hold)
VALUES('$myfld','$parent','$thread','$catid','$fb_authorname','{$kunena_my->id}','$email','$subject','$posttime','$ip','$topic_emoticon','$holdPost')");

Is there a transfer of variables somewhere in the code that I'm missing? Everything else posts to the database just fine, just the myfld isn't populated from the form to the database?

Hello,

you need before to insert the datas in the database, to get the value of your variable $myfld like this :
