I will try that out in a couple of weeks and let you know how it goes.

We need the Gravity Form's fields to be automatically populated by the custom-field values of the post wherein the Gravity Form is embedded.</p> <p>For example: John navigates to the list of tools (non-hierarchical custom post type) and chooses the tool he wants to receive a quote for. On the tools page the Gravity Form which is in place will have certain fields automatically populated with the custom-field values of that post.</p> <p>I already read: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/can-pricing-field-populate-dynamically-from-custom-field" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/can-pricing-field-populate-dynamically-from-custom-field</a> but unfortunately this will not work.</p> <p>Ideally, I need to be able to place some PHP code (e.g. echo get_post_meta($post-&gt;ID, 'tool_measurement', true); ) within the 'Parameter Name' field under 'Allow field to be populated dynamically' section.</p> <p>Is this possible? Thanks in advance! </p>
