CUNY Academic Commons

Hi All,

I am working on this site with the dept admin: https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu

She set up gravity forms to populate posts for student successes etc. Here is the form: https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu/form-test/

The form seems to be correctly set up in the back end: https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/admin.php?id=1&page=gf_edit_forms

I tested the form and the issue is that when the user adds an image to be used as the featured image in the post, the image is lost in translation between the form entry and the post.

Form entry "Laurie ft image test" with headline "This is a test of ft image": https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/admin.php?page=gf_entries&view=entry&id=1&lid=11&order=ASC&filter=&paged=1&pos=1&field_id=&operator=

You can see in the post that there is no featured image set: https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=2303

and there is a link to the image in the post content, but the image has not been added to the media gallery.

I know gravity forms is usually wonky and causes headaches like this (I advised against using it this way...) but it seems like there may be a bug in the plugin/theme connection that might be easily resolved here to allow the ft/image to be moved from form entry submission to the ft. image on post?

Would you look into this?

Thank you!
