Not in front of computer so I hope I remember this correctly -- from the list of Post fields, choose Body. Edit the Body field. Inside you will find Content Template or something like that. Check the box, and you will be able to select fields you have created already and arrange them in the body of your post. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-form-in-post-body#post-24463 Thu, 28 Apr 2011 17:57:38 +0000 cbecker 24463@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Bethfly, how did you figure it out?

I also need to do this. I just purchased and installed the product tonight and created a form with many different fields. I need to combine them to create a post, but I am not seeing how to do it. Are there not instructions for this on the site. I had so hoped to find a program that would allow me to easily create a post template using the fields from the form.</p> <p>I don't know a lot of PHP except to copy and paste snippets of code that I need, but I'm a quick study.</p> <p>I already have the free Contact Form 7 but purchased Gravity Forms tonight because from the description, it sounded like I'd easily be able to create posts. Please help. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-form-in-post-body#post-24360 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 22:01:07 +0000 Tremolo 24360@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Also looking to do something similar. I have similar fields (company name, company address etc) and have created a form using the post fields options. I want users to submit the form and after moderation approval, the data from this from gets posted to the site. So I have used the Title field and renamed it to company and then used Custom Field to capture other information I want to be displayed within the post (address, website etc). I have embedded this form on a page but when I fill it out and submit it, it goes to moderation which is fine. Once I approve the post only the Title field (renamed to Company Name) actually shows up in the post. The other Custom Fields don't show up in my post.</p> <p>I don't have a lot of PHP knowledge but I do have access to someone who does. Can someone describe what needs to be done or point me in the right direction? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-form-in-post-body#post-3666 Mon, 01 Mar 2010 15:36:44 +0000 faspinge 3666@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Okej, i some want familar with php, have used wordpress to build homepages for a year now.

This would require some PHP knowledge to pull off. </p> <p>How familiar with PHP are you? </p>
