The capability to have a different value was added to Gravity Forms a few releases ago. So it is a feature that is in the form builder for drop down, radio button and checkbox fields. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-down-menu-value#post-15029 Mon, 27 Dec 2010 01:30:03 +0000 Osky Interactive Ryan 15029@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This thread haven't been answered yet. Sorry for reviving this post again.</p> <p>But i think i found the solution the create a hook for predefined choices have different value than label.</p> <p>$choices["My New Choices"] = array("Choice 1|ryan1", "Choice 2|ryan2");</p> <p>The Label and Value is separated by using "|" / "OR" symbol.</p> <p>complete hook - <a href="http://www.pastie.org/1407894" rel="nofollow">http://www.pastie.org/1407894</a><br /> -tested for drop down on 1.5.rc2.2</p> <p>Ryan H. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-down-menu-value#post-7914 Wed, 28 Jul 2010 11:04:22 +0000 Carl Hancock 7914@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Currently no, this isn't possible as a feature. It is possible by writing some custom PHP and using an API hook.</p> <p>What are you trying to accomplish? If you are wanting to do notification email routing this is a built in feature. So if you want to send the notification to a person in the drop down, you can do so in the Notification settings for the Admin Notification.</p> <p>We do plan on making it possible to have a different value and option label in a future release. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-down-menu-value#post-7904 Wed, 28 Jul 2010 03:14:12 +0000 clickmarketing 7904@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is it possible to have a different value attribute for the drop down items?<br /> For example:<br /> &lt;option value="johndoe@email.com"&gt;John Doe&lt;/option&gt;</p> <p>I want the drop down to submit an email address when the user selects a name. </p>
