Pass textinput ass url parameter

I really need an option to pass a simple textinput as a parameter to the search query url.

When I submit the form I get a url like this: https://domain.com/?sfid=49&_sf_ppp=3&_sfm_type=bar

Is it somehow possible to have a textinput (an address in this case) field that just passes the input to the url. Something like this: https://domain.com/?sfid=49&_sf_ppp=3&_sfm_type=bar&address=someRoad+567,+1234+someCity,+someCountry

It must not affect the results in any way, it just needs to be there for another php fuction on the page.

I have referred this question to the plugin developer, Ross, for his input.

Hi Nicolai

Unfortunately there is no filter for this at the moment – we’re going to be adding one, for now the only option would be to trick S&F into including it.

So whenever S&F does anything, it will grab the results URL, and add the search params onto the results URL.

So what you want to do, is dynamically change the results URL, to include your variable, eg:
https://yoursite.com/?sfid=123
would become
https://yoursite.com/?foo=bar&sfid=123

You can do that using this filter:
