The form is here: truebeachweddings.com/packages/package-estimator-part-i-of-iii</p> <p>Essentially, the user provides some contact info on Form 1 ( the results of which are passed along to the next forms in hidden fields)</p> <p>Then, the user chooses the services they need on Form 2 and receives a low, middle, high estimate based on the services they choose. These calculations are working correctly on Form 2 (the results are calculated in product fields with a css class of hidden with display:none), and I'm trying to pass the figures for the low, mid, and high over to Form 3.</p> <p>Form 3 appears to be losing the updated figures, and is instead showing the default values. For example, uncheck some services on Form 2 and then take note of the amount in the visible Number field at the bottom. This field value is being sent to the Number field at the top of Form 3, which should be displaying the updated value, but instead reverts to the default value. You can see the default value for this field in the URL string - the default is being passed and not the correct, updated value.</p> <p>I set things up this way (instead of a multi-page form) because we want to capture user info at different points in the process. Everything is actually working great for my purposes except for this one final issue. Let me know what you think - I'd be happy to provide you with a login to my site if it helps. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/sending-a-calculated-field-from-one-form-to-another#post-78752 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 17:13:43 +0000 Chris Hajer 78752@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>How are you doing this now? Can you show us the query string parameters and the form?</p> <p>How about populating a hidden field in your form with the total and then including the merge tag for that field in your query string, rather than the total, or however you are doing it now? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/sending-a-calculated-field-from-one-form-to-another#post-78707 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 15:25:31 +0000 saxonycreative 78707@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi, I am using a query string to send results from one form to another, which is working fine. The problem is that I am calculating a total on Form 1 based on the selections that the user chooses while they are on Form 1. However, when I send the total to Form 2, the sum of all potential options are included in the total, not just the options the user chose. How can I convert this total to a number as it is sent, so that I can display the actual total, or implement some other workaround to accomplish this? I look forward to your thoughts. </p>
