Passing Post_ID using Thesis 2 – May help others

I figured I would share this:
The end goal: Add an “Edit” button/link at the bottom of each post that would redirect to the Gravity Forms update post page.

This is a sample URL to the form:
yourdomain.com/edit-post-test/

Here is a sample URL that passes post_id:
yourdomain.com/edit-post-test/?gform_post_id=1

What I did after creating the form:
1. Using Thesis Skin Editor I Added a “Hook Name” to the Post Box on the “Single” template (for single post display). The hook name I used was “gravity_edit”.
2. From WP dashboard I went to Appearance>Editor and added the code below into the functions.php file.

function gravity_edit() { ?>
<a href="http://yourdomain.com/edit-post-test/?gform_post_id=<?php echo get_the_ID( $post_id, 'custom_field_name', true ); ?>">Edit</a>
	<?php
}
add_action('thesis_hook_post_box_gravity_edit_bottom', 'gravity_edit');

That was it! Now when I view a post, I see “Edit” and once I click it I see that post and can edit it with Gravity Forms. Yeah!

Their is more I would like to do… like add permission to the form page… etc. but that’s all basic stuff we all know already.
