So in a way I'm back at square one. I am presently trying to see if I can properly filter part of what goes into the plugin's public gform_pre_render() function. Inside it does an apply_filters() to gform_update_post_id and appears to pass in gform_post_id, but that doesn't seem to hold a value I want. Maybe this post will help clear up some confusion, and I wish I realized it was the plugin instead of core GF earlier than I did. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-date-and-utc#post-64650 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 19:25:36 +0000 michaelsilva 64650@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>ah, I'll just use $_GET['gform_post_id']. It seems to work well enough :D </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-date-and-utc#post-64648 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 19:13:47 +0000 michaelsilva 64648@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've come to discover that the number at the end of this is the ID I need:</p> <p>?gform_post_id=789</p> <p>I am at the point of trying to retrieve that value when in the function being attached to this hook.</p> <p>I'm close, I can feel it </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-date-and-utc#post-64645 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 19:10:04 +0000 Chris Hajer 64645@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You just need the key (which you have) and the post ID. Are you creating a post with your Gravity Form? If so, you have access to the post ID using the gform_after_submission hook. If you need it for a post which is already created, then a global $post is probably the way to go, so you can pull it into your form which is being rendered on that post/page. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-date-and-utc#post-64643 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 19:01:10 +0000 michaelsilva 64643@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Eh, did a db backup plugin, with ctrl+f. Looks like the wpcf-date is in the wp_postmeta table, which would logically say I just need to find a way to get the right ID value. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-date-and-utc#post-64641 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 18:45:14 +0000 michaelsilva 64641@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>May be a couple hours before i get the db information. Thanks for the help thus far Chris and David. While waiting for access, I'll try a few things. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-date-and-utc#post-64636 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 18:34:53 +0000 Chris Hajer 64636@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Can you show a screenshot of exactly WHERE you see that meta key? Use something like phpMyAdmin to view the database, or the SQL that the plugin uses or something? </p>
