Originally a Post was going to represent a topic. There would be a gallery of user-submitted images in that post (for that topic). Since Gravity can't add to an existing post, I decided to make a Wordpress Category represent the topic (instead of a post). That way people can submit images... and posts are created that belong to that category.</p> <p>But, I am still interested in the original functionality, if anyone out there has found a way to do it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-image-upload-to-attach-an-image-to-an-existing-post#post-29011 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 01:36:09 +0000 ahansendesign 29011@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Paul,<br /> Where you ever able to find a solution to this? I am looking for the same functionality. </p> <p>Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-image-upload-to-attach-an-image-to-an-existing-post#post-18489 Mon, 14 Feb 2011 14:09:34 +0000 paulburd 18489@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>OK, thanks for the info, Carl.</p> <p>Using the hooks is a little above my ability. By chance, does anyone out there have any code they could share?</p> <p>I don't really need the pull-down menu that I first described. I just need to embed an image-upload form into a post, and have that uploaded image be attached to that same post (the one with the form in it).</p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciate. :) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-image-upload-to-attach-an-image-to-an-existing-post#post-15338 Mon, 03 Jan 2011 13:35:45 +0000 Carl Hancock 15338@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Currently it is not possible to edit or add data to an existing post as a built in feature. It might be possible using custom code and available API hooks, but it isn't something Gravity Forms does as a built in feature. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-image-upload-to-attach-an-image-to-an-existing-post#post-15324 Mon, 03 Jan 2011 02:32:17 +0000 paulburd 15324@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm building a site that will consist of user-contributed photos. Each post will have an image gallery, using the built-in WP gallery feature. Is it possible to use the GF Image Upload form to attach an image to an existing post, instead of having it create a brand new post when the image is uploaded?</p> <p>Ideally the form would have a pulldown menu that would allow the user to select the post that they wish to attach their photo too.</p> <p>Any help would be appreciated. </p>
