Would I need to create an HTML field for each menu, and set the conditional logic for each menu choice? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-form-input-text-with-dropdown-selection#post-270968 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:16:57 +0000 David Peralty 270968@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Why would you need to integrate fields into the HTML field? You could add a HTML field that says "Home", and then using conditional logic show that HTML field when the user selects "Location 1" for example. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-form-input-text-with-dropdown-selection#post-270962 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:14:43 +0000 dutch7773 270962@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I think I know where you are going with this. Would you have an example on how to integrate fields in HTML though? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-form-input-text-with-dropdown-selection#post-270945 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:02:24 +0000 Rob Harrell 270945@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You should be able to show/hide fields and content with conditional logic based on selection. It sounds like you might be able to use an HTML field to display the menu information and show that when the option is chosen. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-form-input-text-with-dropdown-selection#post-268334 Wed, 22 May 2013 12:47:11 +0000 dutch7773 268334@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am looking for this functionality too. With me the person selects a location and the display only field shows the name of the location.</p> <p>Great plugin! Looking for more guidance on how to implement code snippets, what file they should go into and where to find field names to refer to. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-form-input-text-with-dropdown-selection#post-263529 Mon, 20 May 2013 15:49:39 +0000 ultramel123 263529@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi there. </p> <p>Great plugin first of all :)</p> <p>I have a form with different "drop-down" fields where the user chooses a "menu" for their conference. These are my dropdown values:</p> <p>Menu 1 | 90<br /> Menu 2 |120<br /> Menu 3 |150</p> <p>I would like to have a text field on my form, which displays the actual menu text for the relevant selection made in the dropdown. </p> <p>ie if the user selects "Menu 1 |90" - then the text field should populate with the text:<br /> "Menu1: Rice, Chicken, Vegetables &amp; 1 salad"... (or something like that)</p> <p>is this possible?</p> <p>Thank you so much for a great plugin </p>
