/**
 * Gravity Wiz // Gravity Forms // Map Submitted Field Values to Another Field
 *
 * Usage
 *
 * 1 - Enable "Allow field to be populated dynamically" option on field which should be populated.
 * 2 - In the "Parameter Name" input, enter the merge tag (or merge tags) of the field whose value whould be populated into this field.
 *
 * Basic Fields
 *
 * To map a single input field (and most other non-multi-choice fields) enter: {Field Label:1}. It is useful to note that
 * you do not actually need the field label portion of any merge tag. {:1} would work as well. Change the "1" to the ID of your field.
 *
 * Multi-input Fields (i.e. Name, Address, etc)
 *
 * To map the first and last name of a Name field to a single field, follow the steps above and enter {First Name:1.3} {Last Name:1.6}.
 * In this example it is assumed that the name field ID is "1". The input IDs for the first and last name of this field will always be "3" and "6".
 *
 * # Uses
 *
 *  - use merge tags as post tags
 *  - aggregate list of checked checkboxes
 *  - map multiple conditional fields to a single field so you can refer to the single field for the selected value

Thank you for this. I've been trying to pass field data in exactly this way. Perfect!
