The details for creating such a system aren't terribly complex; however, as a non-technical user, it might be a difficult project to tackle right off the bat. </p> <p>The general concept is that the reviews (comments) are really just posts, which can be easily created in Gravity Forms. To tie these reviews to the restaurant they were submitted for, you just give them a custom meta key with the post id of the restaurant. Then you can query the database for a list of posts that have the restaurant meta key and the specific post id (restaurant id) you're looking for.</p> <p>If you're interested in talking about this in more detail you can reach me at <a href="mailto:david@ounceoftalent.com">david@ounceoftalent.com</a>. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-i-have-one-form-serve-as-a-post-and-have-another-form-serve-as-comments#post-6183 Tue, 08 Jun 2010 10:41:08 +0000 peteranthony 6183@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-i-have-one-form-serve-as-a-post-and-have-another-form-serve-as-comments#post-6180 Tue, 08 Jun 2010 10:21:47 +0000 Carl Hancock 6180@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't know of any examples. Comment creation isn't something Gravity Forms currently does. It's certainly possible using the API hooks, however it would be a very advanced customization and then it poses spam issues as it wouldn't support Akismet for spam. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-i-have-one-form-serve-as-a-post-and-have-another-form-serve-as-comments#post-6170 Mon, 07 Jun 2010 19:41:51 +0000 peteranthony 6170@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi<br /> I'm not technical and so love the ease of creating forms with GF. </p> <p>I'm trying to use gravity forms to create reviews for restaurants. For that I need a form for people to enter the restaurant and then another to fill in the review, but I need the review forms (there will be many) to be linked to the form that contains the restaurant. </p> <p>Users will submit restaurants in the first form (will be only one of a kind - like a regular post) and then other users will review (comment) on that restaurant. </p> <p>Has this been done before? Can it be done? Any examples out there? Thanks for your help. </p>
