What information will the second form need? At what point does form 2 need the information from form 1 (is it immediate, or will form 2 have to get information from previous entries at some later point)? </p> <p>As for extracting data from form 1, you don't need another form to do that. You can export as CSV all the entries captured by form 1. You can import that into a spreadsheet at that point.</p> <p>Can you explain in more detail what you mean to do, how the work flows, so we can help determine if this is possible? Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-format-data#post-70048 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 23:06:11 +0000 ithacaindy 70048@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>My goal is to use GF to create posts of a certain Custom Post Type. Insert user-provided information into those posts (title, body, etc.) Then, another GF form would extract the data from the previous GF form and format in a database or spreadsheet layout. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-format-data#post-70039 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 21:56:21 +0000 Chris Hajer 70039@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Gravity Forms is not designed to work like that. Gravity Forms collects data, not displays data. However, anything is possible and if you can explain exactly what you would like to do, maybe we can point you in the right direction. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-format-data#post-69971 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 16:28:47 +0000 ithacaindy 69971@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Can I use GravityForms to extract info from a WordPress post,then display it via GravityForms? </p>
