Sounds like it is not one of <strong>your</strong> fields (like name, email, address, interests, etc.) In that case, I'm not sure how to do it. How does AWeber suggest you do it? Can you have a field in your list that you could populate with the source (like facebook) and then somehow sync that with the meta_adtracking field? It does not sound like you can write to the meta_adtracking field. </p> <p>Can it be done with one of their forms? Can you post the code for how they are doing it? Maybe we can do it the same way. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-hidden-field-in-aweber#post-73865 Tue, 04 Sep 2012 17:35:11 +0000 form-creator 73865@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks for the answer.</p> <p>The only problem is that when I try to map the aweber field, the meta_adtracking field does not show in the GF Aweber add-on </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-hidden-field-in-aweber#post-73859 Tue, 04 Sep 2012 16:34:23 +0000 Chris Hajer 73859@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Set up a hidden field in your form, called source, and enable it to be populated dynamically, and give it a parameter name of "source". That will ensure your form catches the source of the lead.</p> <p>Then, when you map the Gravity Form to your AWeber list, the AWeber fields will be on the left, including meta_adtracking (I assume that's a field in your AWeber list?) and you map them to the Gravity Forms fields on the right. Just match up the "source" hidden field in your form with the meta_adtracking in your list.
