I'm creating an online assessment tool using GravityForms. In order to take the assessment, the user needs to be logged in. Registered users can take the assessment any number of times.
Once they log in, I'd like to show them a page which lists all of their assessments.
I know Gravity stores submission in the wordpress database but what is the best method of accessing the information based on the current user?
Thanks,
Don...
I would say that they best way to do this would be to create posts from their submissions using their logged in user as the author.

Then you can create a template file in WordPress to pull posts by logged in user. You could also test each post for logged in as well to keep them hidden from other people. Then data access would be easy using WordPress posts, and custom fields.

That would be the easiest way to do what you want.
Hi David,
I'm not sure if this will work or not. Separate forms are used for the assessment tool and registration.
If I add a "Post Field" to the registration form, I can see the "Set as Post Author" option but only on the Registration form, not the Assessment form.
I've figured out much of what I need to accomplish but have come across what i think might be a bug.
I have jquery ui sliders writing their values to Custom Post fields (set to Number). This works great until I set their filed visibility to "Admin only" instead of "Everyone". When they are set to "Admin only", the values are not written to the database upon submission and not outputting to the auto-created post.
Any ideas why this would be or workarounds for this issue?
What if a work around could be to do a display: none via CSS on the fields rather than Admin Only? Could be worth a shot.
Awesome! Thanks for letting us know.
