How to update w/o new entry?

aliferis. I will have to look at this later tomorrow. I am curious, but I have never seen the issue you are describing. I have this on my list, just no time this afternoon unfortunately.

oh, thanks. I misunderstood – I thought that it was a similar issue to one described by burlingtonave above…

its as if the plugin is not having any effect – the form is simply running in its normal ‘mode’ – allowing a front end user to add a post (which is does, elsewhere)

to be clear I am hoping to update the current post – my shortcode is in a single.php file but its a custom post type and a custom single template

I remove all other entries attached to the current form an post-id, except the newest entry.

add_action( 'gform_after_submission_3', 'mysite_gform_after_submission_3', 10, 2 );

function mysite_gform_after_submission_3 ( $entry, $form ) {
    delete_old_etries_by_post_id( $entry['post_id'], $entry['id']);
} 

function get_old_etries_by_post_id( $post_id, $entry_exclude, $form = 3 ) {
    $search_criteria = array();
    $search_criteria['field_filters'][] = array("key" => 'post_id', value => $post_id);
    $entries = GFAPI::get_entries( 3,  $search_criteria);
    return $entries;
}
function delete_old_etries_by_post_id( $post_id, $entry_exclude_id, $form = 3 ) {
   $entries = get_old_etries_by_post_id( $post_id, $entry_exclude_id, $form);
   foreach ($entries as &$entry) {
    GFAPI::delete_entry( $entry['id'] );
   }
}

Replace the 3 with the id of yout form.
In my use case, this is better than deleting all entries.
Althought updating the first/original entry would be better,
anybody managed to fix this? Feel free to share your code.

Ok, sorry, forgot the crucial part

add_action( 'gform_after_submission_3', 'mysite_gform_after_submission_3', 10, 2 );

function mysite_gform_after_submission_3 ( $entry, $form ) {
    delete_old_etries_by_post_id( $entry['post_id'], $entry['id']);
} 

function get_old_etries_by_post_id( $post_id, $entry_exclude, $form = 3 ) {
    $search_criteria = array();
    $search_criteria['field_filters'][] = array("key" => "post_id", value => $post_id);
    $search_criteria['field_filters'][] = array("key" => "id", "operator" => 'isnot', value => $entry_exclude);
    $entries = GFAPI::get_entries( $form,  $search_criteria);
    return $entries;
}
function delete_old_etries_by_post_id( $post_id, $entry_exclude_id, $form = 3 ) {
   $entries = get_old_etries_by_post_id( $post_id, $entry_exclude_id, $form);
   foreach ($entries as &$entry) {
    GFAPI::delete_entry( $entry['id'] );
   }
}
