Hello,

EM unfortunatly do not have forms conditionnal field; so I am trying to use Gravity and populate field dynamicly.

It’s working fine for Event Name field with this:
```
// Populate gravity forms Event Name Field with Event Name

add_filter('gform_field_value_event_name', 'populate_event_name');

function populate_event_name($value){
	global $EM_Event;

$event_name_EM = $EM_Event->output('#_EVENTNAME');

    return $event_name_EM;
}
```
where “event_name” is the parameter to put in the gravity option : allow dynamic…etc…

For event date it looks like much more difficult and until now I can’t make it work with “event_date” as gravity field value :
```
add_filter('gform_field_value_event_date', 'populate_event_date');

function populate_event_date($value){
	global $EM_Event;

$event = em_get_event($post->ID, 'post_id');
$start_date_EM = $event->event_start_date;
$start_date_EM = str_replace('-', '/', $start_date_EM);

    return strtotime($start_date_EM);
}
```
Any help ?

By the way special message to EM devlopper: why don’t you offer user the choice to use either gravity, woocommerce or your solution for forms and payement ? It could make your pro version a “must have”.

To test I created an event for the 30/08/2014
```
$event = em_get_event($post->ID, 'post_id');
$start_date_EM = $event->event_start_date; // 2014-08-30
$dt = date_create_from_format('Y-m-d', $start_date_EM);
echo date_format($dt,'d/m/Y');
```
return the good value ( 30/08/2014 ) when testing directly on a single page…

but applying this on functions.php (twentyfourteen theme) :
```
add_filter('gform_field_value_event_date', 'populate_event_date');

function populate_event_date($value){

$event = em_get_event($post->ID, 'post_id');
$start_date_EM = $event->event_start_date; // something like 2014-08-30
$dt = date_create_from_format('Y-m-d', $start_date_EM);
return date_format($dt,'d/m/Y');
}
```
returns

Warning: date_format() expects parameter 1 to be DateTime, boolean given in

I will find the solution but some help is really welcome !

Hello !

it was so simple ! thanks to gravity support :
```
add_filter('gform_field_value_event_date', 'populate_event_date');
function populate_event_date($value){
	global $EM_Event;
	global $post;

	$event = em_get_event($post->ID, 'post_id');
	$start_date_EM = $event->event_start_date;
	$start_date_EM = str_replace('-', '/', $start_date_EM);
	$start_date_EM = date("d/m/Y", strtotime($start_date_EM));
	return $start_date_EM;
}
```
next…
