It populates a hidden field with a unique id. You can customize the code snippet to suit your unique id needs.</p> <p><a href="http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-3993" rel="nofollow">http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-3993</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/unique-code-for-each-response#post-13657 Tue, 30 Nov 2010 16:09:10 +0000 ryanopaz 13657@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>We are running a contest where we'll have many entries coming in and with each entry attachments. What we want is a hidden field that will give each entry a unique number. </p> <p>We'll have 5 categories, so the number would be depending on the form that is used, "FA4321"</p> <p>where the "FA is the name of the category and the "4321" are randomly or sequentially assigned. </p> <p>We need this since people might register in more than one category and we would like to link all their entries by a number to one person. </p> <p>I hope this is clear, though I'm sure i"ll need to help explain further. The key though is to get a id number for each submission. </p> <p>Thanks </p>
