Since you are going to be using calculations, be sure to use a number field. Make the field visibility admin only if you want. </p> <p>On the advanced tab, check the box "Allow this field to be populated dynamically" and then give it a unique parameter name, like "volume". Then, when you access the page with the form in it, use the url such as <a href="http://example.com/check-your-keyword-cost/?volume=123222" rel="nofollow">http://example.com/check-your-keyword-cost/?volume=123222</a> . That will pre-populate the field with the parameter name of "volume" with the data 123222. </p> <p>Does that answer the question for you?

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. You can pass a number to a Gravity Forms form through query strings or through pre-rendering a field. On load of the form, you could let the form grab this number and do things to to it, but the calculations are mostly done and displayed through JS. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/send-a-value-to-gravity-froms-for-calculations#post-76015 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 05:18:16 +0000 glasgoweb 76015@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi is it possible to send a value to gravity froms ie a number,</p> <p>then use gravity froms inbuilt calculation function to manipulate that number </p> <p>i know i could do this via js, but would rather have this coded in php </p>
