I didn't get gravity form to code.. it's simple to use that is what makes it great.. please don't take the greatness away.. red on "Vertical Response - got a cURL set-up working with a GF hook" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/vertical-response-got-a-curl-set-up-working-with-a-gf-hook#post-86287 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 14:22:30 +0000 red 86287@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ You can access the form data with the array $form, and the fields specifically with $form['fields']. Then you could do a loop through each field and look for type=email. Here is the output of just $form['fields'][8] which is the email field in a form I'm using. adminLabel => adminOnly => allowsPrepopulate => defaultValue => description => content => cssClass => gf_left_half errorMessage => id => 9 inputName => isRequired => 1 label => Email noDuplicates => size => medium type => email postCustomFieldName => displayAllCategories => displayCaption => displayDescription => displayTitle => inputType => rangeMin => rangeMax => calendarIconType => calendarIconUrl => dateType => dateFormat => phoneFormat => addressType => defaultCountry => defaultProvince => defaultState => hideAddress2 => hideCountry => hideState => inputs => nameFormat => allowedExtensions => captchaType => page_number => captchaTheme => simpleCaptchaSize => simpleCaptchaFontColor => simpleCaptchaBackgroundColor => failed_validation => productField => enablePasswordInput => maxLength => enablePrice => basePrice => calculationFormula => calculationRounding => enableCalculation => disableQuantity => inputMask => inputMaskValue => formId => 3 pageNumber => 1 descriptionPlacement => below validation_message => 9 adminLabel => adminOnly => allowsPrepopulate => defaultValue => description => content => cssClass => gf_right_half errorMessage => So maybe something like: <pre><code>if(is_array($form['fields'])){ foreach($form['fields'] as $key=>$fieldinfo){ foreach($fieldinfo as $key2=>$fielddata){ if($key2=='type' && $fielddata=='email'){ $gf_field_id_email = $fieldinfo['id']; } } } }</code></pre> and then you can access the entry data (email address) with this: <code>$entry[$gf_field_id_email]</code> Hope this helps!

I'm using this now and it works a treat. Does anyone know how we could grab the gform fields by name (rather than hardcoding IDs from a particular form) so that this same function could be used across many different forms?

This isn't a plugin add-on, so not super elegant and requires a little more sleuthing in your own set-up, but is working for us using cURL. I used the cURL part of this solution about a year ago, inspired by this information: <a href="http://www.focal55.com/blog/vertical-response-tutorial-auto-submit-contact-information" rel="nofollow">http://www.focal55.com/blog/vertical-response-tutorial-auto-submit-contact-information</a> To integrate that into a Gravity Form, wrote a function that can be added to the theme functions.php file and used by the GF post submission hook: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_post_submission" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_post_submission</a> Things you need to know to make this work: * Your Vertical Response form id * Gravity Form field ids (findable in the blue title bar of each field when editing your form) Add this function to your theme's functions.php file: <a href="http://pastebin.com/M5KMtYUA" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/M5KMtYUA</a> Notes: * You don't have to send all of the gf fields to VR, just put the ones you want in the $postFields * The gravity form (gf) fields that you're wanting to post to VR need to match up to fields in a VR opt-in form * Just because you have xyz field in your VR general field list doesn't mean it will take it from your gf. The VR opt-in form has to have the fields you want to post to in it or it will cause an invalid form error from VR * If it's successfully posting with cURL but not showing up in VR (check the $response form output and post - might be an invalid form error)- you may need to make a new opt-in form instead of using an existing one * The gf field ids need to be in quotes when defined if you reference something like a checkbox: $gf_field_id_optin = '11.1'; If you work out an improvment to this or have a better approach, please share! Thanks!
