Hi there
So, my question might have been answered in the past, but after 30 m searching i think i have low chances of finding it
So, you might direct me to the answer:
i want to know how i can create a form on the fly? i.e.:
i have a post with a specific custom field with a number . once a user enters this post, i need to create a form that has HTML options tag according the the value in the custom field.Of course this value change from post to post.
So, the solution is using a specific GF filter but i would appreciate if you can direct me to the filter with a simple example

thanks
Yoav

I'm not 100% sure what you are asking so let me see if I got this right..

You want to auto populate a field on your form using data stored in a custom field on your posts?

What kind of field? A hidden field on your form so the user does not see it but you'll see it when it is submitted?

I'm not sure how you can do this. You would probably have to use the gform_pre_render hook to change the form dynamically, but i'm not sure off the top of my head an easy way to do this. It's going to require custom code and using the gform_pre_render hook to manipulate the form before it is displayed.
