<input type="hidden" name="ewayOption1" value="" id="pap_dx8vc2s5"/>
<input type="hidden" name="ewayOption2" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayOption3" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCVN" value="123" />
</form>
If you are using selected custom field fo transfering some data other than PAP cookie update your forms like this:
<form method="post" name="ewaySubmitForm" action="https://www.eway.com.au/gateway/payment.asp">
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerID" value="87654321" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayTotalAmount" value="1000000000" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerFirstName" value="Firstname" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerLastName" value="Lastname" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerEmail" value="name@xyz.com.au" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerAddress" value="123 Someplace Street, Somewhere ACT" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerPostcode" value="2609" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerInvoiceDescription" value="Testing" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCustomerInvoiceRef" value="INV120394" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayURL" value="https://www.yoursite.com/thankyoupage.php" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewaySiteTitle" value="My Web Site" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayTrxnNumber" value="4230" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayOption1" value="" id="pap_ab78y5t4a"/>
<input type="hidden" name="ewayOption2" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayOption3" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="ewayCVN" value="123" />
</form>
And after this form insert this code:
<script id="pap_x2s6df8d" src="https://URL_TO_PostAffiliatePro/scripts/trackjs.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
PostAffTracker.setAccountId('Account_ID');
