Can you please explain this? Is the form going to be embedded into a post which has a custom field which stores the video URL? So, the Gravity Form needs to read the meta key and meta value for the post in which it's embedded? Is that accurate? Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-do-i-populate-my-title-post-field-dynamically-with-a-youtube-title#post-66308 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 22:28:43 +0000 pjeaje 66308@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>How does the video URL get into the custom field<br /> "...

Please provide more information about what you're trying to do.</p> <p>You can get the video title from YouTube URL using the YouTube API:<br /> <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2478391/get-youtube-videos-title-with-jquery-using-youtube-api" rel="nofollow">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2478391/get-youtube-videos-title-with-jquery-using-youtube-api</a></p> <p>You'd have to have some code in your theme's functions.php and use the <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_pre_render" rel="nofollow">gform_pre_render</a> filter to take the URL of the video and get the title from YouTube and pre-populate the post title in your form.
