What I wasn't sure of was if I could query another form entry using Entry Object or if I needed to use a different method. </p> <p>I believe I can handle this myself but I appreciate you providing me with links to developers if I need it. </p> <p>Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/passing-form-data-to-another-form-using-entry-id#post-35081 Mon, 12 Sep 2011 15:41:45 +0000 Carl Hancock 35081@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ultimately this is a customization so I can provide you with a high level overview of what you would need to do, but there isn't currently a tutorial or anything I can point you to.</p> <p>What you want to do is dynamic population of hidden fields when a form is submitted. You would have to write custom PHP so that when the form is submitted, you read the entry id from the form field and then query the entry data for that entry id. You would then populate the hidden fields you add to store these values using this data.</p> <p>So the fields you want to populate dynamically would have to exist on your form. They can be hidden fields. You would then have to write PHP to populate these fields.</p> <p>If this is too advanced for your skill set here are some WordPress developers with Gravity Forms customization experience you could contact about implementing something like this for you:</p> <p>Ounce of Talent<br /> <a href="http://www.ounceoftalent.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.ounceoftalent.com</a></p> <p>Raquel Kohler<br /> <a href="mailto:raquelaraujokohler@gmail.com">raquelaraujokohler@gmail.com</a></p> <p>WebDevStudios<br /> <a href="http://www.webdevstudios.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.webdevstudios.com</a></p> <p>Scott Kingsley Clark<br /> <a href="http://scottkclark.com" rel="nofollow">http://scottkclark.com</a></p> <p>There is a larger list of developers with Gravity Forms experience here (although I can't guarantee they all know what they are doing):</p> <p><a href="http://wpcandy.com/pros/experienced/with-gravity-forms" rel="nofollow">http://wpcandy.com/pros/experienced/with-gravity-forms</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/passing-form-data-to-another-form-using-entry-id#post-35057 Mon, 12 Sep 2011 12:15:04 +0000 harfield 35057@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello, </p> <p>I've built a form to determine a users optimal mortgage type. At the end of the form we give them the entry ID # so they can add that number into one of two other forms depending on what they want to do. </p> <p>When they enter the ID in one of the other forms I need to be able to call the form data from that entry ID and add it to the new forms entry data. Because the user may not be filling out the second form immediately after completing the first form I don't believe dynamic populating the form will work. Also because the user will be selecting one of two forms I'm not sure if that would cause problems with dynamic population. </p> <p>The data does not need to be displayed in the form when the client is filling it out but we need to be able to view the data in the backend, so if there is a way to append it to the entry that would be perfect. </p> <p>If you could point me in the right direction to do this it would be a great help. </p> <p>First form can be found here: <a href="http://fsquaredesign.com/origin/life-stage-assesment/" rel="nofollow">http://fsquaredesign.com/origin/life-stage-assesment/</a> </p>
