The Name field is not a post field and if the Name field is set to display "First Name" and "Last Name" using the Standard name format, that is actually 2 fields not 1... so you would have to combine them and then populate the Post Title field using that data.</p> <p>If you don't use the Post Fields to create a post then things get more complex and you would have to write custom PHP and take advantage of the available API hooks to accomplish this. It takes a lot of knowledge of PHP and WordPress development to do it this way. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/random-easy-questions#post-6206 Wed, 09 Jun 2010 14:39:18 +0000 Wheaton College 6206@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>If you want to ask the submitter for the title, I think you'd need to use the Post Field called "Title" in your form. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/random-easy-questions#post-6205 Wed, 09 Jun 2010 14:35:22 +0000 rlevy2 6205@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Re my 1st question... are you saying that they'd have to fill in the information twice? Also, I'm actually now losing where I tell it how to create the post. For example, I want "First Name" and Last Name" to be the post title. Where do I set that?</p> <p>So, using embed code would work, if I put it as a post field? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/random-easy-questions#post-6138 Sun, 06 Jun 2010 20:39:18 +0000 Carl Hancock 6138@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Only Post Fields create post related data. Standard and Advanced fields are for capturing information. If you want to create a Post, you need to use Post Fields.</p> <p>If you wanted someone to include a video embed code you would need to use a Post Field that captures that information. Either the Post Body or a Post Custom Field that you then use on the front end to display the video. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/random-easy-questions#post-6110 Sat, 05 Jun 2010 14:05:17 +0000 rlevy2 6110@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi - I have a few random, probably fairly easy, questions:</p> <p>- I'd like to use the "post creation" feature, so the form automatically creates a blog post. But I want it to automatically use fields that have already been filled in from the form, as opposed to having to enter the info again. How do I do that?<br /> - Is it possible to have someone submit video embed code in the form, and have it create part of a blog post from that? </p>
