Let me know how it works. gingram815 on "Get checked checkboxes" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/get-checked-checkboxes#post-23675 Tue, 19 Apr 2011 11:17:53 +0000 gingram815 23675@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I have worked on this more. <pre><code>//Add checkbox info from gravity forms to the custom fields of each post add_action("gform_post_submission_2", "set_post_custom_field", 10, 2); function set_post_custom_field($entry, $form){ $postid = $entry["$post_id"]; //get post id associated with entry $parts = ""; $field_ids = array_keys($entry); //get all field ids of entry foreach($field_ids as &$field_id){ if(substr($field_id,0,2) == 89){ //define $parts as all values from field ids beginning with 89 $parts.= $entry[$field_id] . ',';} } $parts = explode(",", $parts); //updating custom fields with each value from above into same key foreach($parts as &$part){ if(!empty($part)){ update_post_meta($postid, 'part_of_plant_used', $part); } } }</code></pre> I am getting an error back because $entry is an object and not an array. So the array_keys() function is not working (line 8). Does anyone have another way of getting all the keys of the entry as an array? gingram815 on "Get checked checkboxes" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/get-checked-checkboxes#post-23644 Mon, 18 Apr 2011 23:17:04 +0000 gingram815 23644@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I am working on a very similar issue, but I am attempting to place checkbox values into custom fields with each value under the same key. It seems like I figured out how to do it but it is not working. Here is my code <pre><code><?php //Add checkbox info from gravity forms to the custom fields of each post created by each entry add_action("gform_post_submission", "set_post_custom_field", 10, 2); function set_post_custom_field($entry, $form){ $postid = $entry["$post_id"]; //get post id associated with entry $field_ids = array_keys($entry); //get all field ids of entry foreach($field_ids as &$field_id){ if(substr($field_id,0,2) == 89){ //define $parts as all values from field ids beginning with 89 $parts = $entry[$field_id];} } //updating custom fields with each value from above into same key foreach($parts as $part){ if(!empty($part)){ update_post_meta($postid, 'part_of_plant_used', $part); } } } ?></code></pre> This is pasted into my functions.php. I can't see that it would matter, but the post is a custom post type. Here is the form page: <a href="http://herbalrepertory.throughwoods.com/post-a-new-herb/" rel="nofollow">http://herbalrepertory.throughwoods.com/post-a-new-herb/</a> Any help would be greatly appreciated. escapade_carbet on "Get checked checkboxes" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/get-checked-checkboxes#post-10603 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 07:24:12 +0000 escapade_carbet 10603@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I found a solution with a different approach after noticing that $entry array was properly filled with values of checked checkboxes. Here is my code snippet: <pre><code>add_filter("gform_post_submission", "insert_custom_taxonomies",10,2); function insert_custom_taxonomies($entry, $form){ if($form["id"] !=1) return; $post_id = $entry["post_id"]; $choices_services = ""; $choices_access = ""; $entry_ids = array_keys($entry); foreach($entry_ids as $entry_id){ if(substr($entry_id,0,2) == 25) $choices_services.= $entry[$entry_id].','; if(substr($entry_id,0,2) == 24) $choices_access.= $entry[$entry_id].','; } wp_set_object_terms($post_id, explode(",", $choices_services), "service"); wp_set_object_terms($post_id, explode(",", $choices_access), "access"); }</code></pre> I hope this will help somebody else. escapade_carbet on "Get checked checkboxes" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/get-checked-checkboxes#post-10526 Tue, 28 Sep 2010 22:23:41 +0000 escapade_carbet 10526@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hello, I'm using last version of Gravity Forms (1.4.3.1) and it was very easy to set up a complex and lengthy form. The purpose of the form is to create a custom post type. This part is working thanks to hints I found on this forum. I'm trying now to set up checkboxes that will populate custom taxonomies when values are checked. More details here: - List A of checkboxes (id=24) for custom taxonomy 'access' - List B of checkboxes (id=25) for custom taxonomy 'services' Here is my PHP code: <pre><code>add_filter("gform_post_submission", "insert_custom_taxonomies",10,2); function insert_custom_taxonomies($entry, $form){ if($form["id"] !=1) return; $post_id = $entry["post_id"]; $choices_services = ""; $choices_access = ""; foreach($form["fields"] as &$field){ if($field["id"] == 25){ foreach($field["choices"] as $choice){ $field_value = !empty($choice["value"]) || $field["enableChoiceValue"] ? $choice["value"] : $choice["text"]; $choices_services.= $field_value.','; } } if($field["id"] == 24){ foreach($field["choices"] as $choice){ $field_value = !empty($choice["value"]) || $field["enableChoiceValue"] ? $choice["value"] : $choice["text"]; $choices_access.= $field_value.','; } } } wp_set_object_terms($post_id, explode(",", $choices_service), "service"); wp_set_object_terms($post_id, explode(",", $choices_access), "access"); }</code></pre> This does not work as my vars 'choices_access' and 'choices_services' are empty before calling 'wp_set_object_terms'. I've tried var_dump($choice) for debugging purpose in "foreach" loop, but even if I check a checkbox in the form, "IsSelected" property is set to "false" after submission. - Am I using a wrong hook to populate my taxonomies? I've tried 'gform_pre_submission' hook, without any success. - Is there a way to know if a checkbox was checked before hitting submission button? Anyone can help? Thanks! Vincent
