Buts it's fairly complex and involves a few moving pieces to account for the UI, options, validation, etc.</p> <p>But unfortunately we don't have a tutorial on this particular customization.</p> <p>I would suggest looking at the code in 1.6.1 and inspect how the Credit Card field is added and see if that helps. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-a-custom-field-1#post-41942 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 22:35:33 +0000 wearethenest 41942@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>So, I found the "gform_add_field_buttons" filter which allows one to add "Add Field" buttons to the Form Editor, but this is only one part of the solution; I need to also be able to define the field/fields that are rendered by this new Field type - how do I go about this?</p> <p>I'm not asking for a solution to be provided, just to be pointed in the right direction as to what filters I will need to implement to create my own custom "Advanced" field types. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-a-custom-field-1#post-41684 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 20:02:09 +0000 wearethenest 41684@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I would still appreciate a support response on this.</p> <p>This topic has been active for over a month with no official response. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-a-custom-field-1#post-40975 Sun, 13 Nov 2011 21:26:11 +0000 wearethenest 40975@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Would appreciate a support response on this.

How can I do this? Which hooks will I need to use? Is there any documentation relating to this?</p> <p>I have searched the FAQs and Documentation, the only relevant result I found was <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/adding-a-custom-field" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/adding-a-custom-field</a>, which was answered by an administrator, but the answer was not included in the thread. </p>
