The user in that thread wasn't using the Post Body field which is why no body was being created, just a title when the post was created. They added a Post Body field to their form and that corrected the issue. If certain data isn't being created in your Post it's because your form is missing the necessary fields to create that data or you are using the wrong field type. Only fields under Post Fields in the form editor create post data. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mapping-fields-content-to-post-template#post-28199 Mon, 20 Jun 2011 15:30:02 +0000 adhoc 28199@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Here's a thread that explains this pretty well:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/post-fields-not-working" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/post-fields-not-working</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mapping-fields-content-to-post-template#post-28084 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 19:01:44 +0000 Carl Hancock 28084@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>If by "other" fields you mean Custom Fields, which any content fields other than the Title and Body are going to be, you need to use the Custom Field under the Post Fields. You then need to configure the Custom Field so it uses the Custom Field Name of an existing Custom Field or you can create a new one. This custom field name is what your post template is trying to display when it calls the post meta. So you have to use Custom Fields. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mapping-fields-content-to-post-template#post-28082 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:42:39 +0000 adhoc 28082@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Nothing needs to go into the content editor (fckeditor) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mapping-fields-content-to-post-template#post-28081 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:41:24 +0000 adhoc 28081@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have tried this and a post was created with the Title field as the name of the post.

Post fields are the only thing in Gravity Forms that create WordPress Posts.</p> <p>Other than that i'm not really sure what you are asking. Gravity Forms can create Posts, and how you display those Posts is up to you and your theme. All Gravity Forms does is create the Post, it doesn't display the Post on the frontend. That is up to your theme. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mapping-fields-content-to-post-template#post-28075 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:18:47 +0000 adhoc 28075@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I want to have the content of the fields submitted by the user populate a custom post template - the code shown is that custom template. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/mapping-fields-content-to-post-template#post-28072 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:13:52 +0000 Carl Hancock 28072@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't understand what you are trying to do.
