You need to configure your field so that it can be populated dynamically and then pass the data to it via the query string. See the forum post below, it outlines how to do this. </p> <p><a href="http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/pass-custom-field-from-a-post-into-a-form-that-post-links-to#post-14327" rel="nofollow">http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/pass-custom-field-from-a-post-into-a-form-that-post-links-to#post-14327</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modify-incoming-field-data-dynamically#post-15938 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 02:49:20 +0000 mattswan 15938@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Carl,</p> <p><a href="http://www.grandchifleyhotels.com.au/wedding-enquiry/?HotelID=GCA" rel="nofollow">http://www.grandchifleyhotels.com.au/wedding-enquiry/?HotelID=GCA</a></p> <p>in above link you can see gravity form.

I have it partly working. Forget my question for now. There seems to be something else wrong. Some parameters are passed, others not.... I'll figure that out first.</p> <p>Thanx, Han </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modify-incoming-field-data-dynamically#post-9011 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 14:32:09 +0000 hegeman 9011@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>yes they worked fine when I when I had set it up so that the gravity form got the parameter directly from the url.<br /> Without the intermediate steps of grabbing it, changing it and feeding it into the form. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modify-incoming-field-data-dynamically#post-9010 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 14:19:06 +0000 Carl Hancock 9010@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Nope, the information comes from the form itself. So if you are populating the fields dynamically correctly it should save the data in those hidden fields. When you say those fields worked fine before, are you referring to before you tried to obfuscate them? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modify-incoming-field-data-dynamically#post-9009 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 14:07:25 +0000 hegeman 9009@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Carl,<br /> I'm almost there, I got a test form up and running where the parameters are read from the url and the deobsfuscated code is inserted correctly in two hidden fields in the form. </p> <p>But that info in the hidden fields is no longer appearing in the email notification that is sent. Those fields stay blank, whereas before they worked fine. Is that information coming from a different route?</p> <p>Unfortunately I cannot send a url as the site is developed behind a firewall.<br /> Any ideas are appreciated. I'm a bit stuck a this last final tiny step.</p> <p>Thank you,</p> <p>Han </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modify-incoming-field-data-dynamically#post-9005 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 13:19:33 +0000 hegeman 9005@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ah, thanks for your quick response.
