I'm not 100% sure off hand if modifying the form object via the gform_pre_submission_filter to add the newly added checkbox inputs there as well is too late in the submission process; however, that is would be my recommendation. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populated-checkboxes-not-saved#post-54794 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 15:25:09 +0000 ptroxler 54794@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>... the funny thing is: when I'm populating the checkboxes from categories, they are not getting saved, when I'm populating the checkboxes from posts, they are getting saved. weird. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populated-checkboxes-not-saved#post-54793 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 15:20:00 +0000 ptroxler 54793@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Set up dynamically populated checkboxes as specified here <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/dynamic-checkboxes" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/dynamic-checkboxes</a> but gravity forms would not save the values (though displaying the columns in the entries list).<br /> HTML code generated looks perfectly similar to standard checkbox which gets saved.</p> <p>So there must be something going wrong between displaying the form an storing the input into the database.</p> <p>Any ideas? </p>
