I'm trying to pass a UNIX timestamp to a form. From what I was reading, I can supposedly alter the value of a hidden field with the Gform field value $parameter name function. Here's what I wrote:</p> <p>In my theme functions.php:<br /> add_filter("gform_field_value_timestamp", "unixtime");<br /> function unixtime($value){<br /> return time();<br /> }</p> <p>In the form, the field named "timestamp" is hidden, the default value is blank, allow field to be populated dynamically is checked, and the value of the dynamic population is gform_field_value_timestamp.</p> <p>Problem is, it's not populating at all.</p> <p>What am I doing wrong? </p>
