Retrieve previous (single) entries.

  1. Is it possible to retrieve a single past entry? So knowing the form and the entry ID (?), I can retrieve that specific entry?

    It would be very useful to be able to go back and do some post-processing on indivdual form entries.

  2. It's possible to retrieve and display single entries easily using the Gravity Forms add-on, an unrelated plugin from Katz Web Services:

    Not sure what you mean about post-processing, but if you post your intended use I'm certain someone can help you accomplish what you want.

  3. We have forms that are submitted in response to something. There is a choice of 10 forms. Once 6 or more forms have been filled in, the subscriber can then 'finish'. This produces a report based on the 6 to 10 forms filled in.

    In this case, I'd like to just track which forms the user has filled in, and then retrieve their answers at some point in the future (when they click 'done - generate report').

    That's what I mean - 'post' as in 'after', not as in 'wp_posts'. Like film special effects are post-processing.

    The gravity-forms-addons plugin looks worth some investigation, thanks!

  4. Hi again. I'm still wanting to so this, and not keen on installing a comparatively large plugin for what should hopefully just be one function.

    Is there any reason for me not to use
    $entry = RGFormsModel::get_lead($gf_entry_id) ?

  5. There's no reason not to use that function, if it works for you. It's much better than accessing the entry with direct calls to the database. Let us know how it goes.
