Any code examples available using the presubmission_hook? Chances are I'll have to hire someone to set that up but would like to give it a whirl first. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-two-values-in-user-notification-shortcode#post-66396 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 08:00:54 +0000 David Peralty 66396@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Unfortunately, conditional logic doesn't allow those kinds of things yet. You would have to create hidden fields in your form, and then using the gform_pre_submission hook, you would have to write a function to do the logic, put a value in your hidden field, and then use conditional logic to pick up on that.</p> <p>So for your example, you would have a hidden field called "lifestatus". </p> <p>Your pre_submission hook would grab the submitted values from your two fields, do the math, and send the value back to the lifestatus field.</p> <p>Then your conditional logic in your notifications would be able to do the is 3 conditional to show Married with one kid. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-two-values-in-user-notification-shortcode#post-66265 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 16:13:54 +0000 Schrock 66265@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have multiple instances where I need to add the value of two fields and then apply conditional logic to that value in my user notification, see below:</p> <pre><code>[gravityforms action=&quot;conditional&quot; merge_tag=&quot;{Are You Married?:55} + {How many children reside with you?:19}&quot; condition=&quot;is&quot; value=&quot;3&quot;] Married with one kid [/gravityforms]</code></pre> <p>NOTE: The "Are you married" field is a dropdown. If yes is selected, it returns a value of 2, no returns a value of 1</p> <p>The above didn't work...how can I make that happen? </p>
