 * I am trying to use this code:
 * **`add_filter(‘gform_field_value_first_name’, ‘my_custom_population_function’);
   
   function my_custom_population_function($value){ global $current_user; $current_user
   = wp_get_current_user(‘firstname’, $current_user->user_firstname); return $first_name;`}
 * I am trying to populate a gravity form with it. I would like to grab the current
   users first name and last name and fill them in the form dynamically.
    Honestly
   I don’t don’t know php but I am learning to understand it. I done as much online
   research as I can on my own and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge with 
   me.
 * Thank you in advance for your help.
    My site is:[http://elkspring.net/](http://elkspring.net/)
   The form is located here:[http://elkspring.net/contact-form/](http://elkspring.net/contact-form/)
