Not working with List Field

OK. Just hacked the code of the plugin. This makes it work. You should remove the list from the switch case and make it separate into this.

case 'list':
          $value = !is_array($value) ? array($value) : $value;
          $i=0;
          foreach ($field['choices'] as &$choice)
          {
          $field['defaultValue'][$choice['text']] = $value[$i];
              $i++;
          }
          $field['defaultValue']=Array($field['defaultValue']);
       break;

So happy that I found this! Cant really get it to work..

Is this still working for you semyou?

I had a look at the GF documentation for the Field Object Property “defaultValue”.
Doesn’t look like it applies to list fields..

The only other way I can think of is using the Field Value filter but that just feels like a bad workaround..
Any suggestions?

Thank in advance!

Hi David,

Did you try my fix? Did you change the code of the plugin?

Let me know.

Yea, I tried it but could not get it to work.. I removed the list case from the switch and made it separate as per your instructions.

The code runs without errors but nothing shows up in the list field.
I think the array needs to be built in another way..
It only adds the first row even if there’s say 3 rows saved in the post.

If I “print_r” the final array inserted in the $field[‘defaultValue’] it looks like this:

Array ([0] => Array([Column-1] => text-col1|text-col2 [Column-2] => ))

Only the first row is added to the array and the values for both my columns are added to the first column :/

Do you know how Gravity Forms is expecting the default value for the list field? Cant find it anywhere.. If I knew how GF is expecting the array I could most likely change how the array is being put together.

Hi David,

I have fixed the bug in the plugin to support lists. However, I included also removal of duplicates by deleting previous entries. Please check here. Let me know if you have questions.

Cool @semyou!

I had to find a workaround for my project at the time. Will look at implementing this instead when I have time.
Thanks for the follow-up!
