However, when I go to my form on the webpage, for some reason I get the author's information displayed in the form as opposed to the user who is logged in. I'm assuming it has something to do with the dynamic population hook I've created...This is what I have</p> <p>add_filter('gform_field_value_user_email', 'populate_user_email');<br /> function populate_user_email($user){</p> <p> $user_email = get_the_author_meta('email', $user-&gt;ID);</p> <p> return $user_email;<br /> }</p> <p>However, as I said this returns the email address of the Author of the post, not the User logged in...</p> <p>What do I have wrong? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamic-population-and-user-profiles#post-55003 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 22:50:45 +0000 kelvin.quarles@ikvinc.com 55003@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ok thanks I'll take a look </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamic-population-and-user-profiles#post-54773 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:15:15 +0000 Rob Harrell 54773@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This post here sounds like it might help out, or be a step in the right direction:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/user-meta-for-auto-fill-form-and-user-profile#post-45969" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/user-meta-for-auto-fill-form-and-user-profile#post-45969</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamic-population-and-user-profiles#post-54716 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 05:55:38 +0000 kelvin.quarles@ikvinc.com 54716@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Issue: I currently have three forms set up, each of them are a step-system type of form, meaning there are multiple steps to complete a form submission. It's broken up as such:</p> <p>General Information<br /> Form Specific Information</p> <p>What I would like is to make it when the user fills out the General Information section, it creates a user account for that particular user (I have this set up already). However, when the user goes to another form, I would like the data previously filled out on the previous form copied to the new form.</p> <p>The problem I currently have with this is that in the general information section, I ask for things such as Address and Phone Number, which aren't a part of a "User Profile" within WordPress, is there any way to copy this information?</p> <p>OR if I could edit the Wordpress User Profiles, I could set it up where the user must first register with the website and then only fill out the specific form information. Again, this would require being able to store extra information in the wordpress User Profile. How can I accomplish this? </p>
