Then, with a function linked to gform_after_submission, you can update the post format to the one selected by your visitor. Code something like this: <a href="http://pastebin.com/dYiQJqmY" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/dYiQJqmY</a></p> <p>Be sure to get the name and case of the format exactly correct. The built-in WordPress post format is 'video' but your theme may use something different. You can use a label of Video and a value of video if that looks better to you. If you have only a few options, you can use radio buttons instead.</p> <p>UPDATE: this code was previously posted by David Smith, which should work as well (however, you will need to change gform_post_submission to gform_after_submission in this code, since that old hook was deprecated: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/auto-select-post-format#post-30916" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/auto-select-post-format#post-30916</a> ) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/set-a-post-format#post-179861 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:39:45 +0000 camoeyes 179861@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello, the theme I'm using "Grido" from <a href="http://www.themify.me" rel="nofollow">http://www.themify.me</a> uses Post Formats and I want my users to be able and upload images and the "Image" post format gets selected.</p> <p>I also want the user to be able and select "Video" which, they would then paste the video URL and the post would be set to "Video" post format... is there a way to do this? I looked a good bit but I'm not finding any instructions for this functionality.. </p> <p>Thank you </p>
