Post field visibility

    I'm wanting to pass info entered from a field in my form to a post field title on a separate page of the same form (but slightly modified) prior to submission. I decided to use jQuery to get the value of the field on focusout and set it in a cookie (maybe there's a better way to do that).

    Anyway, the problem I'm having is that I've set the post field title's visibility to admin only (because I want to generate it automatically based on the other field's input) but, unlike a regular text field, it doesn't seem to show up in the source as a hidden input field. How is it different? I was planning on using the jQuery val method to set the post field title but I don't know what to target. I set the field to visible to everyone temporarily to view the input id but when I set it to admin only again I'm not seeing it in the source.

    Nevermind, I've answered my own question. I just checked "Allow field to be populated dynamically" and I'm seeing the hidden field now.
