Hi,
I'm very interested in purchasing a dev version of Gravity forms, I do have some questions however.
Will it save data onto a database?
Will it allow me to perform a calculation on data before storing it (ie, store the product of two fields rather than the fields themselves)?
Will it auto-populate a field with the username of a logged on user?
I'd be very grateful if someone could supply me with this information
- Data is stored in the database and notification emails can also be sent.
- It does not do field calculations, you would have to do this using hooks and writing some of the code yourself. Others have done it. But it isn't a built in feature.
- It can auto-populate a field with the username of a logged in user. There are some variables you can use for default values that include the users email, users login, users display name, etc. Or you can do it using PHP and a hook and populate it with whatever you want.

With the field calculations, would you be able to show me examples of what other users have done? I'm a PHP/Java beginner so I'm worried of not being able to do it.
I think if I had some sample code I'd be confident of being able to adjust it to suit my needs.
#jorges, were you ever able to get this working? if so would you please share your code. I am trying to create a form that calculates a future date based on todays date and the number of weeks entered by the user. Any examples would be great.
Thanks!
