A bit over my head .. but .. I do have a coder ;-)</p> <p>Your assumption was correct by the way. I'll let you know how I make out with this.<br /> Cheers,<br /> Gil </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-field-tags-default-value-question#post-27223 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 15:55:41 +0000 David Smith 27223@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Gil,</p> <p>I'm assuming that this is a single page form and that the user would be entering their name and any additional post tags before submitting? If so, you'd need to write some custom javascript that updates the value of the post tags field once the user finishes entering their name. Here is some sample code to get your started.</p> <p><a href="http://pastie.org/2034051" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/2034051</a></p> <p>Make sure you update the input IDs with the input's in your form. Also, bare in mind, if the user enters there name, then adds some additional tags, and then changes their name again, it will overwrite the additional tags they added with just the name again. You can customize this to be a bit more user friendly. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-field-tags-default-value-question#post-27203 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 14:25:47 +0000 Gil Namur 27203@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi All!</p> <p>Is there a way to have the tags post field automatically populated with the name (from the advanced name field) of the person making the entry? I don't see an option for that under Default Value. Can I do it using "Allow field to be populated dynamically" and if so, how? Or is there some other way?</p> <p>Thanks and cheers,<br /> Gil </p>
