auto-populate fields in gravity forms

[system]

In Gravity Forms plugin I’ve tried to dynamically populate End Date and End Time based on the Start Date and Start Time values.

This is the code I used to dynamically populate End Date:

[php]add_filter(“gform_field_value_date”, “populate_date”);
function populate_date($value){
return date(‘Y-m-d’, strtotime(’+0 days’));
}[/php]

This actually works but it adds ‘+0 days’ to the submission date and not to the ‘Start Date’ value.

Same goes with time. I want to have the ‘End Time’ field auto-populated, i.e. End Time = Start Time. And I want to add “+1 hour” to the ‘Start Time’ and thus get ‘End Time’.

Any suggestions? Tnx

I really don’t know what Gravity Forms plugin is doing, but for a guess I would say it’s using Variable variables http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php. Meaning that populate_date is going to their own function (add_filter?) somewhere in the code and renaming the variable dynamically (look for the $$), I would look for it there and maybe you can modify it there? However, this is just a wild shot in the dark, maybe showing more code? Or maybe someone else here has a better suggestion?

Why are you changing the days parameter if it starts on the creation date?

[php]date(‘Y-m-d’, strtotime(’+0 days’));[/php]

[php]date(‘Y-m-d’);[/php]

Should accomplish what you are after without modification, judging by what the above would do.
