Inspecting the $_POST variable did the trick!

It will look something like $_POST["input_4"], where 4 is your field ID. As far as the "Missing argument error", try changing your add_action() line to the following: <pre><code>add_action("gform_after_submission_4", "book_after_submission", 10, 2);</code></pre> windfarmstudios on "How do I get the Entry object from my pre_render function" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-do-i-get-the-entry-object-from-my-pre_render-function#post-59543 Sun, 20 May 2012 15:01:46 +0000 windfarmstudios 59543@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I'm hooking in to my form with gfrom_pre_render_1 - in this hook, I'm changing a dropdown to dynamic options populated from a custom post type. This works perfect. Yay. However, now my problem is, if the form is submitted with errors, the form re-renders with non of the selected dropdowns. I'd like to know if there's a static method or some way of getting the Entry object from my pre_render function so I can check and mark the selected options, selected again on submission error. Also, I'm getting a Missing argument error with the gform_after_submission hook. Using the latest release: 1.6.4.3 <pre><code>add_action("gform_after_submission_4", "book_after_submission"); function book_after_submission($entry,$form) { var_dump($entry); var_dump($form); die(); }</code></pre>
