Any ideas on how to update either pre or post submission? I feel like I'm getting closer, but I can't identify where to set the user. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-as-different-user#post-19251 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 15:43:37 +0000 Carl Hancock 19251@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This isn't possible as a built in feature. The only available options are to use the default author OR if the user logged in you can optionally use the username of the user that is logged in when they fill out the form. If this option is turned on and they aren't logged in it will fallback to the default user.</p> <p>So you could set the default user as Anonymous and if they want to post anonymously they just should do so without being logged into your WordPress site and it will use Anonymous. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-as-different-user#post-19249 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 15:34:21 +0000 libertysucker 19249@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It's not live yet, but the form is here...<br /> <a href="http://hammeroftruth.com/submit/" rel="nofollow">http://hammeroftruth.com/submit/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-as-different-user#post-19248 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 15:21:36 +0000 libertysucker 19248@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm using the form to allow users to post links to our site. In the "Post Body" field, there is an option to choose which author is used for the post, either default user or logged in user.<br /> What i want to do is default to the logged in user, but add an option to post as anonymous. We have an Anonymous user on the site already. I'd like to have a checkbox that when selected, would show the author as Anonymous rather than the logged in user. Any help? I'm new to Gravity Forms. </p>
