Form Informtation / Drafts?

  1. Hi,

    I am new to Gravity Forms so please bear with me!

    I want users to submit info on themselves and a photo. But where will this information be stored? I would like each user's info to be stored in a 'draft post' if that is possible with Gravity Forms?

    Is this possible?

    Thanks in advance

  2. It depends on how you setup your form.

    By default, the data would be stored as a Form Entry and the photo would be stored in your wp-content/uploads folder.

    If you use Post Fields in your form then it will also create a WordPress Post. If you use the Post Image field for the photo upload then the photo would be stored in your Media Library. As for the post status, you have control of that as part of the settings on the Post Title and Post Body fields. So you can set it to Draft, or Published. It's up to you.

    Post Fields create a WordPress Post. So you need to use Post Fields if you want to create a Post when the form is submitted.
