Multiple Tag fields in Gravity Forms

  1. I have included multiple tag fields in my Data Entry form for a post submission,
    but only the data from the last one gets submitted to the post.

    Is it possible to somehow concatenate entries from multiple tag fields into a single one, with the current version of GF? How could something like that be accomplished?

    thanks

  2. The tag field wasn't designed to be used multiple times. We can look into making it so that if multiple tag fields exist, all the data gets passed. That would have to happen in a future release.

    It was designed to be a single instance, just like when creating a Post or Page in WordPress you only get one tag field.

  3. Hi Carl,

    I admit perhaps im not using tags for the things it was intended to. I'm currently attaching attributes to post with tags, my idea of multiple tags was to help give users examples of which tags can be entered and so i thought the best way for that would be to break the tag entries up, as in this example

    if that is something that would be easy to implement for future release, it would be great, if not, then will have to settle for one tag field i guess.

    Thanks

  4. Yea, I understand exactly what you are doing. We have discussed it and will add add this ability in a future release. What it will do is if you add multiple tag fields to a form it will apply all tags entered across all fields to your post. We will look at adding this in the 1.3 release.
