 * Hi, this plugin is great but I am having trouble with one small thing I need 
   to do.
 * Basically when a user edits a form I want to reset a select field to it’s default
   option.
    For example, in my form I have a drop down select with the param name
   of ‘apstat’. If the persons form has ‘apstat’ with a value of ‘approved’ and 
   they use Sticky List to edit their entry I want the field ‘apstat’ to reset to
   it’s default value of ‘pending’.
 * I tried using two methods, one by adding the dynamic population query string 
   to the URL but that doesn’t work as the link is triggered from a form and the
   otehr I tried was:
 *     ```
       add_filter('gform_field_value_apstat', 'reset_apstat');
       function reset_apstat($value){
         return 'pending';
       }
       ```
   
 * Any help would be appreciated, happy to kick in a Paypal donation for solution
   or if you offer the Pro version I’m happy to prepay because I love this plugin
   🙂
