So you could have a hidden field on your form and then recreate the field's &lt;input&gt; tag. </p> <p>Below is an example where I took my hidden tracker field (field 11) on my form (form id 23) and rebuilt the tag:</p> <pre><code>add_action(&quot;gform_field_input&quot;, &quot;tracker&quot;, 10, 5); function tracker($input, $field, $value, $lead_id, $form_id) { if ($form_id == 23 &amp;&amp; $field[&quot;id&quot;] == 11) { $input = &#39;&lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; id=&quot;hidTracker&quot; name=&quot;hidTracker&quot; value=&quot;test&quot;&gt;&#39;; return $input; } }</code></pre> <p>When that runs, the HTML has my new version of the tag. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/add-hidden-input#post-47009 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 14:55:55 +0000 Melanie_D 47009@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a javascript to add a hidden input field to a form, but I'd rather use a hook. I need to be able to set name, id and value of the input. This is for tracking only, so GF retaining value is not necessary, only something that should be read on submission.<br /> Any ideas? </p>
