Hello,
I’d like to be able to automatically save the user’s information they inputed into this form so that when they go back to fill in the form later, they wouldn’t need to fill their first/last name, Instagram username, and email. I found this online but it’s not working.
/* ----- create cookies to remember items for auction gravity forms ----- */
add_action("gform_pre_submission", "pre_submission_handler");
function pre_submission_handler($form_meta) {
$saveVars = array("first", "last", "insta", "email");
foreach($form_meta["fields"] as $field) {
if( $field["allowsPrepopulate"] ){
if( is_array($field["inputs"]) ){
foreach($field["inputs"] as $sub){
$val = $POST["input" . str_replace(".", "", $sub["id"])];
setcookie("gf".$sub["name"], $val, time() + 31536000, COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN, false, true);
}
}else{
$val = $POST["input" . $field["id"]];
setcookie("gf_".$field["inputName"], $val, time() + 31536000, COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN, false, true);
}
}
}
}
add_filter("gform_pre_render", "add_auto_update_filters");
$contego_callbacks = array();
function add_auto_update_filters($form){
foreach($form["fields"] as &$field){
if( $field["allowsPrepopulate"] ){
if( is_array($field["inputs"]) ){
foreach($field["inputs"] as $sub){
$fieldName = $sub["name"];
add_filter("gform_field_value_" . $fieldName, function($f) use ($fieldName){
return $COOKIE["gf" . $f];
});
}
}else{
$fieldName = $field["inputName"];
add_filter("gform_field_value_" . $fieldName, function($f) use ($fieldName){
return $COOKIE["gf" . $f];
});
}
}
}
return $form;
}
//Save the utm_source parameter as a session cookie
function namespace_set_source() {
GFCommon::log_debug( __METHOD__ . '(): running.' );
if (isset($_GET['utm_source'])) {
GFCommon::log_debug( __METHOD__ . '(): There is a GET utm_source.' );
if (!isset($_COOKIE['utm_source'])) {
GFCommon::log_debug( __METHOD__ . '(): There is no cookie utm_source.' );

}
}
This form they will be filling out, they will need to fill it out very frequently so I’d prefer if I could autofill it. Here is the form live on my site.
Send us a screenshot from a replay or session so they can be featured on our Instagram and may be used on our blog, Facebook, Twitter, or other materials. We’ll give you credit when we share it. Kyle Boas Manager, Editor and Writer If you have any...

If your custom code is not working, I recommend using the built in logging in Gravity Forms to see what’s going wrong. First please enable logging:
For quite a while, enabling logging within Gravity Forms has been a go-to method for debugging any issues within Gravity Forms. As of Gravity Forms version 2.2, logging functionality has been moved from a separate add-on to becoming a core feature of...
Next, add some custom logging statements to your code. I recommend adding a logging statement inside each loop or conditional, and also after you set any variable or object, to see if it holds the value you think it should. Here is how you can add custom logging to your code, which will be added to the Gravity Forms logs:
With that additional logging, you should be able to see where this is falling apart.

It kind of seems like I’m going to have the same problem as was seen in this topic but I don’t know what the resolution was. I can’t tell though.
I replied to your email. Thank you.

Hi Kyle. You need way more logging than that! I modified your code to clean up the formatting a little and add some more debugging statements. Please try this code instead:
view-source:http://chrishajer.com/cook.php.txt
then test the form to run your code, and post a link to the log file , rather than the log statements. It’s easier to view in the browser that way.

Good work, Kyle (@trio )! If you ever want to do this easier in the future, Gravity Forms Easy Passthrough handles this pretty deliciously without any custom code required.
But I know how good it feels to figure something like this out on your own!
