Track which logged in WP user submits form?

    A client wants to track which logged in WP user submits form - then they want to post statistics they collect on the Website.

    Can Gravity Forms do this? Or is there webware that it integrates with GF that can do this?

    The logged in user is already captured when a form is submitted. It's displayed on the Entry Details in the right hand "Info" box. See this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/Fv4CD.png

    The user id is captured and stored with the entry data. If you wanted to generate statistics based on this you would have to write custom code to query the entry data and do with it whatever you want from a display standpoint.

    I'm not aware of any add-ons for Gravity Forms that do statistics on the users who submit forms. It's the first i've seen it come up as a project need.

    @dlittle800 - please expand on "post statistics they collect on the Website" - I'm sort of intrigued by that. Would the posts be some sort of data that gets aggregated, or something more simple like:

    User5: 17 posts
    User8: 4 posts

    Thanks.
