The problem was that it wasn't being added to the right file (the current theme's function.php). Once it was added to the right file, it worked correctly. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/pre-populating-again#post-1228 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 18:29:01 +0000 Dipity2 1228@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It still doesn't work, I'm emailing you now. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/pre-populating-again#post-1219 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:22:47 +0000 Alex Cancado 1219@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't see anything wrong with your code.<br /> What I would do is change your populate_enquiry() function to something trivial, like:<br /> <code><br /> function populate_enquiry(){<br /> return "Testing enquiry";<br /> }<br /> </code></p> <p>If that doesn't work, make sure there aren't any blank spaces around the 'enquity' parameter name.</p> <p>If you still can't get it to work, I will need to take a closer look at it. Please email me at alex[at]rocketgenius.com and we can go from there. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/pre-populating-again#post-1212 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 09:35:46 +0000 Dipity2 1212@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have the following problem. I have a paragraph text box that I want pre-populated within the form. I've added this to my functions.php file, but it isn't working. I've probably got something wrong somewhere!</p> <pre> add_filter("gform_field_value_enquiry", "populate_enquiry"); function populate_enquiry(){ global $post; $post_name = $post-&gt;post_title; $enquiry_total = "Please send me more information on" .$post_name. "!"; return $enquiry_total; } </pre> <p>My paragraph text box is ticked to allow dynamic population, and called 'enquiry'. </p>
