The code isn't handy to simply re-post somewhere else. If it's going to be a long while then we'll try to find another place to host those snippets.

Is there any way you could post the full code on pastebin or something for this tutorial?</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Dynamically_Populating_Drop_Down_Fields" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Dynamically_Populating_Drop_Down_Fields</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populate-dropdown#post-56435 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 16:59:39 +0000 dherman 56435@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have not, I'll give it a try.

The other is a bit more detailed and seems to be the way you will want to go, have you seen this:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Dynamically_Populating_Drop_Down_Fields" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Dynamically_Populating_Drop_Down_Fields</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populate-dropdown#post-56420 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 16:34:55 +0000 Rob Harrell 56420@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Can you send me a WP Admin login to <a href="mailto:rob@rocketgenius.com">rob@rocketgenius.com</a> so I can take a look?

Though I eventually hope to pull some values out of the WP DB, right now I can't even get the <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Using_Dynamic_Population" rel="nofollow">hooks tutorial</a> working using the default values.</p> <p>In the dropdown, dynamic population is checked with a parameter name of "your_parameter".</p> <p>In functions.php, this code exists:</p> <pre><code>add_filter(&#39;gform_field_value_your_parameter&#39;, &#39;my_custom_population_function&#39;); function my_custom_population_function($value){ return &#39;boom&#39;; }</code></pre> <p>And yet, on <a href="http://www.fourcornersevents.info/submit/" rel="nofollow">my form</a>, the "Venue" dropdown (which the parameter is attached to) remains completely empty. What am I doing wrong? </p>
