In this case it needed to be changed to 10.<br /> Then in the properties of the field, click Advanced and put a check mark in the Allow Field to be Populated Dynamically.<br /> Lastly, make sure the Parameter name matches what you've put in the functions file. For this situation, it needed to be StudentID. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56669 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 13:53:45 +0000 Rob Harrell 56669@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Jon, can you send me a WP Admin login, FTP access and reference this post: <a href="mailto:rob@rocketgenius.com">rob@rocketgenius.com</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56668 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 13:33:15 +0000 Jon Marius 56668@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't know if I'm not supposed to post code on here, so if that's the case, feel free to delete it.. but this is what I have </p> <pre><code>add_filter(&quot;gform_field_value_StudentID&quot;, &quot;get_unique&quot;); function get_unique(){ $prefix = &quot;FP&quot;; // update the prefix here do { $unique = mt_rand(); $unique = substr($unique, 0, 6); $unique = $prefix . $unique; } while (!check_unique($unique)); return $unique; } function check_unique($unique) { global $wpdb; $table = $wpdb-&gt;prefix . &#39;rg_lead_detail&#39;; $form_id = 4; // update to the form ID your unique id field belongs to $field_id = 2; // update to the field ID your unique id is being prepopulated in $result = $wpdb-&gt;get_var(&quot;SELECT value FROM $table WHERE form_id = &#39;$form_id&#39; AND field_number = &#39;$field_id&#39; AND value = &#39;$unique&#39;&quot;); if(empty($result)) return true; return false; }</code></pre> <p>So then I added that field id to my emails.. So far, nothing has happened, I don't see a number generated in the reports or emails. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56664 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:47:45 +0000 Rob Harrell 56664@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Did you update: add_filter("gform_field_value_uuid", "get_unique");</p> <p>to be: add_filter("gform_field_value_StudentID", "get_unique"); </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56663 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:30:12 +0000 Jon Marius 56663@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>OK I copied that code ti my theme_functions.php file, then replaced the form ID and the field ID, updated file, then added a hidden field in my form and named it StudentID, but I'm stuck..

I guess I was getting it by the last topic (<a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/guid-entry-id" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/guid-entry-id</a>) but the link with the solution david smith posted is not coming up, so I am just wondering what the actual code I need to modify would be.</p> <p>I just want a generated number, could be random or consecutive, doesn't matter.<br /> 6 digits long, doesn't matter if it is only numeric or alpha numeric.<br /> I want the number to be linked to the person's name (for reporting purposes)<br /> and I want the number to be emailed to the person and to me</p> <p>thoughts? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56625 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:31:17 +0000 Rob Harrell 56625@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Here are some helpful links on that as well:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/random-number#post-52247" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/random-number#post-52247</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/guid-entry-id" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/guid-entry-id</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56624 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:23:44 +0000 David Peralty 56624@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You could, but this feature is not built in and would require customization. </p> <p>If you wanted to do it, I would recommend using the following hook:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_confirmation" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_confirmation</a></p> <p>To create a custom confirmation message that includes the registration number. </p> <p>If you wanted to save that confirmation number to your database, then you'll have to create a hidden field, populate that hidden field with your confirmation number and then in the confirmation, grab that value and display it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/support-question#post-56619 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:05:17 +0000 Jon Marius 56619@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Sure, I will let you know... I was wondering.. I doubt this is possible, but when a person adds the emails and send the message, would it be possible (in a perfect world it would lol) to generate a "registration" number of some sort?</p> <p>Not holding my breath on this one, but thought I'd ask. </p>
