Hi,

I have a form which contains a list of radio button questions with the same 5 choices.

Can you please help me get a count of all the A’s, B’s, C’s, D’s and E’s.

I have tried using the gform\_pre\_submission approach that was provided in another thread but can’t seem to get the code right.

Here is what I have so far:

// change 258 to your form ID here  
add\_action( ‘gform\_pre\_submission\_258’, function ( $form ) {  
GFCommon::log\_debug( **METHOD**. ‘(): The POST =\> ’ . print\_r( $_POST, true ) );  
// What is the ID of the first radio button field that will be counted  
$first\_field = 55;  
// What is the ID of the last radio button field that will be counted  
$last\_field = 65;  
// initialize an empty array to hold all our radio button fields  
$radio\_fields = array();  
// loop through all the radio button fields and assign them to an array  
for ( $i = $first\_field; $i \<= $last\_field; $i++ ) {  
GFCommon::log\_debug( **METHOD**. “(): Counter is {$i}.” );  
$radio\_fields[] = rgpost ( 'input_’ . $i );  
}  
$counts = array\_count\_values ( $radio\_fields );  
GFCommon::log\_debug( **METHOD**. '(): COUNTS =\> ’ . print\_r( $counts, true ) );  
// store those counts in five fields in the form  
$\_POST[‘input\_5295’] = $counts[‘NCR - Cat 1: An activity likely to cause death/ SBO / SBI’];  
$\_POST[‘input\_5297’] = $counts[‘NCR - Cat 2 - An activity likely to cause other than death/ SBO / SBI’];  
$\_POST[‘input\_5298’] = $counts[‘NCR - Cat 3 - Contravention of admin requirements’];  
$\_POST[‘input\_5299’] = $counts[‘Compliant’];  
$\_POST[‘input\_5300’] = $counts[‘Opportunity for Improvement’];  
GFCommon::log\_debug( **METHOD**. '(): MODIFIED POST =\> ’ . print\_r( $\_POST, true ) );  
} );

I would really appreciate it if you took a look.

Thanks,  
Lloyd
