    I am putting a Name field on a form that I want to auto populate with the current user's first and last name. Is there an easy way to insert that through dynamically populating the field or do I have to do it in a pre-render function?

    How or where are you planning on getting the data from? With dynamic population you can pass the data in via a query string. http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Using_Dynamic_Population

    If they are logged in users, we have merge tags you can put in the default values - http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Merge_Tags Look specifically at the user:meta_key section.
