Query Leads from Gravity Forms

26. May 2016




Query Leads from Gravity Forms

Gravity Forms for WordPress is a full featured contact form plugin that features a drag and drop interface, advanced notification routing, lead capture, conditional logic fields, multi-page forms, pricing calculations and the ability to create posts from external forms.”

There are multiple options how to handle the confirmation page. Gravity form allows you to send query parameters to the page it is redirecting to.

You can send all form information in the clear, via query variables, but that looks really messy. Its better to use something like this .. lead_id={entry_id}  and query form information on the actual confirmation page.

GET THE LEAD

This will output the submitted form data as an array, with all fields linked by field id.

TRANSLATE FIELD IDS TO FIELD LABELS

When you are reusing the field data for your own purposes, its easier to deal with field  names than with fields ids. So we get the form meta data

and extend the lead array.

Before you needed to know the actual field id to get its value. Now you can use the generated lead key to get that value.

BEFORE

AFTER

Much easier to reuse and remember :)

Enjoy coding ….

I am a full-stack developer. My expertise include:

  • Server, Network and Hosting Environments
  • Data Modeling / Import / Export
  • Business Logic
  • API Layer / Action layer / MVC
  • User Interfaces
  • User Experience
  • Understand what the customer and the business needs

 

I love programming,  design and know my way around server architecture as well.  I would never feel complete, with one of these missing.

I have a broad range of interests, that’s why I constantly dive into new technologies and expand my knowledge where ever required. Technologies are evolving fast and I enjoy using the latest.

Apart from that, I am a peace loving guy who tries to have people around him that think the same.  I truly believe in the principle: “If you help someone, someone will help you, when you need it."
