The problem with the <strong>gform_field_value_{parameter}</strong> hook is that it's only activated on the first form page and will fill the $_POST array with those values.

So it will probably not help you if you need to adjust these values later (to prefill some answers), based on answers on other pages.

Here's an idea how to solve your problem:


<strong>Example:</strong>

If you have for example this setup:


Page 1:

Question 1 input text with a field id 11

----

Page 2:

Question 2 input text with a field id 14

----

Page 3:

Question 3 input text with a field id 15



then you could use (just a simple demo):

add_action( 'init', function(){

// get answers for q1 and q2
$q1_ans = filter_input( INPUT_POST, 'input_11' );
$q2_ans = filter_input( INPUT_POST, 'input_14' );

// pre fill answer for q3 based on q1 and q2
if( 'london' === $q1_ans && 'paris' === $q2_ans )
{
$_POST['input_15'] = 'dakhar';
}
});


to prefill the answer.

You can further add a check for the <em>form id</em> and the current <em>form page number</em>.

The $_POST array might look like this on page 3:

Array (
[input_11] => london
[input_14] => paris
[input_15] => dakhar
[is_submit_3] => 1
[gform_submit] => 3
[gform_unique_id] => 53071c13c022b
[state_3] => abc123
[gform_target_page_number_3] => 3
[gform_source_page_number_3] => 2
[gform_field_values] =>

No voting, but a suggestion- This is solved with the Gravity Forms Survey add-on that is available to those with a developer license.
