We haven't had much time to look or interact with the Facebook plugin as of yet, but at this time, I have no suggestions on getting it to work. They aren't just using basic custom fields from what I can tell, and as such, we don't have any way of easily hooking into what they've done. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/visitor-submitted-facebook-updatesposts-how-to#post-63182 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 12:28:37 +0000 lake15 63182@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Might anyone have a chance to look at this issue?

It allows a blog to push out Published posts to a Facebook wall.<br /> <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook/</a></p> <p>I have Gravity Form set up to allow non-logged in visitors to submit posts to my blog and set them as Draft status. Then, I can Publish those crowd sourced posts after reviewing them.</p> <p>I need to configure my Gravity Form to collect the field data for the Facebook update fields. With the Facebook plugin installed, the WordPress New Post page includes new fields that are used by Facebook when the Post is pushed to a wall. (ie Status Update language)</p> <p>Despite my attempts at using the Gravity Forms Custom Field in the Post Fields group of options, none of this data is included/brought over/inserted in these new Facebook plugin fields.</p> <p>Here is my mocked up form.<br /> <a href="http://www.hawleypage.com/test-fb-crowd-sourced-entries/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hawleypage.com/test-fb-crowd-sourced-entries/</a></p> <p>Does anyone know if this is possible?</p> <p>Appreciated.</p> <p>Gordon </p>
