Adding Values?

  1. Is it possible to add label values to come up with a total?

    Example Question: Is gravity form the best?
    Label: Yes Value: 1
    Label: No Value: 0

    Example #2 Question: Is gravity form the best?
    Label: Yes Value: 1
    Label: No Value: 0

    When form is completed, can the form add the values? So if I answer yes to both questions i would have a score of 2...

  2. Hi Muntz,

    It isn't available out of the box, but wouldn't be hard to add a little custom jQuery to handle this.

    1. Add a hidden field title score. We'll store our totaled score here later. Check the option to allow for dynamic population and add the parameter name: 'total-this' http://grab.by/aj0r
    2. Add a class "total-this" to any field that should be included in the total. The little script I wrote only supports multiple choice fields by default. Make sure the value is numeric. http://grab.by/aj0s
    3. Paste this snippet in your theme's functions.php file. You probably need to remove the opening <?php at the top of the pastie. It's just there to indicate that it is PHP code: http://pastie.org/2034295

    That should be it. This is a super simple script but you can hopefully use it as a base to build upon.
