Add option in Pods GF feed config to set ID / Slug of item via Magic Tag for use in editing item

[jimtrue]

Notes regarding the filters for Editing existing record:

add_filter( 'gform_pre_process_1', 'add_my_edit_id_hook', 9 );`

function add_my_edit_id_hook( $form ) {

    add_filter( 'pods_gf_addon_edit_id', 'set_my_pods_gf_edit_id', 10, 6 );

    return $form;

}

function set_my_pods_gf_edit_id( $edit_id, $pod, $form_id, $feed, $form, $options ) {

    if ( /* whatever logic here */ ) {
        $edit_id = 1234;
    }

    return $edit_id;

}

I should have time for this soon, maybe this weekend. Sorry -- I've been hyper-focused on getting Pods 2.8 features built out.

I can't figure out where do I place this. I want to create a edit page so the author of that pod item can edit it on the front end. How to do that?

[jimtrue]

This is an open issue. It's not actually available yet @ericmil87

[rpall]

Any updates on this? @jimtrue

[jimtrue]

@rpall I'm not the developer of this plugin. You would want to mention @sc0ttkclark ;)

[rpall]

Alright :) Any updates on this @sc0ttkclark ?

Thanks.

Hi, @sc0ttkclark, has this been implemented? Tnx.

Check out this code snippet which should help you out @dklamie @rpall @ericmil87

(sorry, left off the code snippet link)

Hi @jimtrue, thanks for the snippet. As I understand it would only work on the posts that we know ID's beforehand. Is there a way to dynamically populate the post ID?

Ie. we have a form that creates only one unique single post for each user; when the user fills out the form it creates the post, on every following opening of the form, the form checks the unique post id for that user and populates the fields.
