I added a Custom Field to my form and configured it as a Single Line Text field type. I then configured the Custom Field Name and enabled and configured the Content Template. See this screenshot:</p> <p><a href="https://skitch.com/carlhancock/8nw1n/edit-forms-gravity-forms-v1.6-wordpress" rel="nofollow">https://skitch.com/carlhancock/8nw1n/edit-forms-gravity-forms-v1.6-wordpress</a></p> <p>Now select the Advanced Tab while editing your Custom Field and set the Visibility of that field to Admin Only. See this screenshot:</p> <p><a href="https://skitch.com/carlhancock/8nw1k/edit-forms-gravity-forms-v1.6-wordpress" rel="nofollow">https://skitch.com/carlhancock/8nw1k/edit-forms-gravity-forms-v1.6-wordpress</a></p> <p>The end result if configured properly is that the Custom Field will be created and the whatever is in the content template will be used for it's value. So if you insert the merge tag for your Title field into the content template, it will use that value. Whatever appears in the content template is what will be used as the value for the custom field when the post is created. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-inputed-value-in-2-fields#post-49712 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 15:57:21 +0000 regevlio 49712@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi There</p> <p>Im uing gravity form to create custom post upon submit.<br /> I am alwo using custom fields for that matter</p> <p>as far as i can understand in order to do that the user must fill in the title of the post.<br /> what i want is that the input filled in the title field will also be in a diffrent custom field without the need for the user to fill it out twice</p> <p>how can i do that ? </p>
