I don't want to restrict anyone who has an idea contributing it but for those logged in i'd like to dynamically-populate their name. </p> <p>What I've done so far is drop a Name field onto my form and set it to "simple" so first and last name are combined (not too precious on this part but thought it would make it easier for users). In other forms -- and I think in the case of non-Name fields -- I've seen a drop-down of choices but in this case it's just a check box which if checked asks for a parameter name. </p> <p>My core requirement is to pre-populate that for a wordpress user if they're logged in. I'd think this would be pretty easy but I am very new to Wordpress and Gravity Forms so find myself at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>My "extra credit" requirement is to use the users Discus identity information to pre-populate if the user isn't actually logged into the site. </p>
