Post Picker for Gravity Forms revolutionizes how you collect post-related data in your forms by adding a sophisticated custom field type that seamlessly integrates with the Gravity Forms ecosystem.
This plugin solves a common problem: allowing users to select from existing content on your WordPress site through forms. Whether you need visitors to choose from blog posts, select products, pick events, or reference any custom post type content, Post Picker for Gravity Forms makes it effortless.

 array(

 ); 
 return $args; 
}, 10, 3 ); 
“</code>

 ) 
 ); 
 return $args;

 return $args; 
} ); 
“</code>
Filter by Category (for Posts) 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args, $post_type ) {

}, 10, 2 ); 
“</code>
Field-Specific Filtering 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args, $post_type, $field ) { 
 // Only apply to specific field ID
