Form values to post custom fields and more ...

    Dear Gravity Forms Team,

    We are building a site using rather complex forms. The site serves for the local government, civil organisations can register and upload tenders. All of these jobs are done by using forms.

    This is a registration where they fill out a datasheet of their organisation:

    There are also more complex sheets for tenders. To view those please log in with the following:

    And then go to this link:

    And here you can see a tender after digested:

    The process now is, that form datas are sent in as HTML data into wordpress. So all the data goes to the_content(). Which is not that good. We would like to send in data as post custom fields. Can Gravity forms do this? Can it send textual and other data, like radios and checkboxes also? Is there a template where you can set the string also when sending in?

    For some inputs we would also like them to be able to be duplicated live on the frontend and then data be sent dynamically.

    Eg.:

    [input field] (add new input field button)

    or as we are doing some inputs in tables also we want to duplicate them in rows

    [description] [value] [matter] (duplicate fields button)

    and the does this

    [description] [value] [matter]
    [description2] [value2] [matter2]
    [description3] [value3] [matter3]

    And it is also important that duplicates have to follow the output method of their parent. Right now they are sent in as HTML, but if the go in as custom fields it's a bit easier maybe.

    We also have to export datas as CSV or other excel or excel compatible format.

    (Maybe saving as draft and the continuing later would be a nice feature.)
