Save data as entry from own custom form

    Hi.
    I actually need to place multiple instances of the same form on a page, but read that this is not possible.
    http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/multiple-forms-on-one-page

    What if I build my own forms, can I somehow save that data as entries and send notifications? I really need this feature. I can build my own forms but building an admin interface and automatic notifications requires a lot of work.

    Can you not just duplicate the original form and place the duplicated form alongside the original on the page?

    Hi Rob,

    Unfortunately no. :-) I need a form for every posting on a listing page and there is no specific number of posts, so it could be any number of posts.
    It's for a site where it is possible to bid on a product and the owner of the product needs to either accept or deny the offer/bid. When a bid is accepted or denied an email with all the data needs to be sent out to the bidder and the owner of the site needs to have records of activity.

    Is it possible to have an accept button and a deny button, that trickers a gravity form, like if hit an accept button, I call a gravityform and throw the data into that form. Like calling a form with ajax maybe?

    Maybe it is possible to load a form in a modal window, but then I need fill all the data from the offer/post into hidden fields. Is there a similar action hook gform_field_value_$paramtername that I can use with ajax?

    Okay, I think I have found a solution to what I am trying to do. I am just placing on form on the page, I then prepopulate fields with ajax. It wasn't a simple task and a bit complex to explain all the steps here...

    Cheers
