The code you have is correct.<br /> The problem is that the filter only fires if you have a post field on the form. In your case, you don't. So what we are gonna have to do is add a post title field to the form and hide it with CSS. In the advanced tab, you can set the CSS Class property to "post_title_hidden" and then add the following to your theme's CSS</p> <p><code><br /> .post_title_hidden{display:none}<br /> </code> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-the-hooks-examples-work-with-multiple-forms#post-1541 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 10:54:57 +0000 panmanphil 1541@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I can't seem to get it to fire. My form id is one, the form tag named gform_1. I tried the changing the second number to 1 also. I also named the function to match the text in the add_filter call. The version I have is </p> <p>add_filter("gform_post_data_1", "set_post_info", 10, 2); //replace 2 with your form id<br /> function set_post_info($post_data, $form){<br /> $post_data["post_title"] = $_POST["input_14"]; //replace input_1 with your hidden $field name<br /> $post_data["post_content"] = $_POST["input_13"]; //replace input2 with your hidden field name<br /> return $post_data;<br /> }</p> <p>I am just learning all this but it seems like add_filter fires before the user enters data. If so that wouldn't help in my case because I'm trying to get data the user has entered. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-the-hooks-examples-work-with-multiple-forms#post-1538 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:45:45 +0000 panmanphil 1538@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This looks like it may be perfect.

That filter also has an equivalent gform_post_data_FORMID that can be used to filter a specific form. The following code seems be what you need.</p> <p><code><br /> add_filter("gform_post_data_2", "set_post_info", 10, 2); //replace 2 with your form id<br /> function custom_taxonomy($post_data, $form){<br /> $post_data["post_title"] = $_POST["input_1"]; //replace input_1 with your hidden field name<br /> $post_data["post_content"] = $_POST["input_2"] //replace input2 with your hidden field name<br /> return $post_data;<br /> }<br /> </code> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-the-hooks-examples-work-with-multiple-forms#post-1521 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 18:00:19 +0000 panmanphil 1521@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>As I read the code snippets for using hooks, like gform_post_submission, can these actually work if you have more than one form? As suggested in another thread I wanted to populate a hidden Post Title and Post Body field, and a hook seems a reasonable way to do it. But if I add another form, it seems it would blow up because of the hook. </p>
