Hi,
I have a form.
I have an advanced field with Name and Surname.
I want to add a function but I cannot retrieve the value of this fields.

add_action('gform_after_submission_3', 'inserisci_tabella_vincitori_qr_code', 10, 2);	
function inserisci_tabella_vincitori_qr_code($entry, $form){
global $wpdb;
// recupero il valore del codice
$name = $_POST["input_16.3"];
$surname =  $_POST["input_16.6"];
$telefono =  $_POST["input_2"];
$provincia = $_POST["input_18"];
$query_update     = "INSERT INTO inquadra_vincitori (name,surname, telefono, provincia) VALUES('$name','$surname','$telefono','$provincia')";
}

but I have no value…
why?
Thanks

Replace your dots with underscores for $name and $surname, e.g. input_16_3. If you’re pulling things out of $_POST using rgpost instead is recommended (rgpost doc also shows how to access multi-input fields properly like the Name field).

Since you’re in gform_after_submission it would probably also be better to just pull your values out of the available $entry object instead using rgar, plenty of examples on how to extract values from the entry object in the gform_after_submission doc.

Try it like this @pettedemon:

add_action( 'gform_after_submission_3', 'inserisci_tabella_vincitori_qr_code', 10, 2 );
function inserisci_tabella_vincitori_qr_code( $entry, $form ){
	global $wpdb;
	// recupero il valore del codice
	$name      = rgar( $entry, '16.3' );
	$surname   = rgar( $entry, '16.6' );
	$telefono  = rgar( $entry, '2' );
	$provincia = rgar( $entry, '18' );
	$query_update = "INSERT INTO inquadra_vincitori (name,surname, telefono, provincia) VALUES('$name','$surname','$telefono','$provincia')";
}

That should fix the blank values. I believe you have some security issues with that code. You may want to look into the $wpbd class documentation for better ways to do this:
