Target Form Merge Tags

When configuring your Update Multiple Entries action, you may want to use (or do something with) values from the Target Form itself. You can do that by using ‘target’ inside the Merge Tag.

{target:1}

Example

In this example we use our GravityWP – Advanced Merge Tags modifier gwp_case to update an extra field in the Target Form that we want to fill with the value from the Single Line Text Field (ID 1 in the Target Form) and make it UPPERCASE.

We add {target:1} to use the text value in the target form. Be aware: when you would use {text:1} it will take the value from the Trigger form (the form where you’ve configured your Update Multiple Entries action). This can also be handy ofcourse, but in this example we look specifically how you can use and change values from the Target Form itself.

After submitting an entry in the Trigger Form, it automatically loops through all the entries in the Target Form and fills the extra field ‘Keyword UPPERCASE’ with the value of ‘KEYWORD’ in UPPERCASE.

Update Multiple Entriesv1.0-beta.6

For this functionality you need the GravityWP - Update Multiple Entries Add-on installed.
