Would that code be called by gform_after_submission filter? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/converting-file-upload-to-post-attachment-during-post-processing#post-42088 Wed, 23 Nov 2011 23:54:41 +0000 Chris Hajer 42088@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks for the update Scott. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/converting-file-upload-to-post-attachment-during-post-processing#post-41964 Wed, 23 Nov 2011 03:20:31 +0000 sc0ttkclark 41964@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>So that ended up fitting my needs perfectly. Only problem is that by adding a Post Image field, upon submission - a ghost post is created called "Untitled X", with "X" being a number. To resolve this, I simply added this code to my post-processing function.</p> <pre><code>if (0 &lt; $entry[&#39;post_id&#39;]) wp_delete_post($entry[&#39;post_id&#39;], true);</code></pre> <p>That code will drop the post, BUT leave the attachments, which was all I needed to have anyway. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/converting-file-upload-to-post-attachment-during-post-processing#post-41960 Wed, 23 Nov 2011 01:32:33 +0000 sc0ttkclark 41960@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>On further inspection, it appears there's another field type I glossed over for Post Image. However, if I end up going forward with this code, it would convert the file uploads (regardless of file type) over to an attachment. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/converting-file-upload-to-post-attachment-during-post-processing#post-41939 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 22:28:37 +0000 sc0ttkclark 41939@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm looking to get all the benefits of having post attachments (thumbnails, image resizing, etc..) for images uploaded to a GF (complex use case alert). I'll post my progress here, if anyone has done this before feel free to save me from going through the "figuring it out" phase ;) </p>
