Can you switch your hosting to use Linux? Hosting WordPress and PHP apps on Windows hosting is a recipe for problems, the majority of which are related to Permalinks and Email issues with WordPress. breslincenter on "Form not submitting" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-not-submitting#post-28926 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 22:42:19 +0000 breslincenter 28926@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hi, I am having an issue with my form not submitting AND with email notification not being sent. My form URL is: <a href="http://beckersbridal.com/?page_id=210" rel="nofollow">http://beckersbridal.com/?page_id=210</a> The host is GoDaddy (Windows). When I deactivate permalinks, it submits (but no email is sent out, and I have verified the email settings). When permalinks are activated, (which I need), the form will not submit... it just refreshes the page to the blank form again. I had issues with GoDaddy and permalinks before realizing the form issues, so I uploaded a file titled 404-handler.php to my site that I found on another forum. Here is the code: <pre><code><?php // This is the default file for the site. Usually index.php $default = 'index.php'; // The name of this file. // Set this value for the URL in Custom Error Properties of your website in IIS. // Goto: IIS Manager > Websites > [Site Name] > Properties > Custom Errors > // 404 & 404;2 & 404;3 > URL (Requires a '/' prefix in IIS). $thisfile = '404-handler.php'; $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_TRANSLATED'] = str_replace($thisfile, $default, $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_TRANSLATED']); $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] = str_replace($thisfile, $default, $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']); $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO'] = str_replace($thisfile, $default, $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO']); $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] = str_replace($thisfile, $default, $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']); $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] = str_replace($thisfile, $default, $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] = false; $qs =& $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; $ru =& $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; $pos = strrpos($qs, '://'); $pos = strpos($qs, '/', $pos + 4); $_SERVER['URL'] = $ru = substr($qs, $pos); $qs = trim(stristr($ru, '?'), '?'); // Required for WordPress 2.8+ $_SERVER['HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL'] = $ru; // Fix GET vars foreach ( $_GET as $var => $val ) { if ( substr($var, 0, 3) == '404') { if ( strstr($var, '?') ) { $newvar = substr($var, strpos($var, '?') + 1); $_GET[$newvar] = $val; } unset($_GET[$var]); } break; } include($default); ?></code></pre> Carl Hancock on "Form not submitting" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-not-submitting#post-2268 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 21:47:23 +0000 Carl Hancock 2268@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hit us up via the Contact Us form with details. The issue the user that started this thread is having is unrelated to the issue you are encountering which is unique. The form submission does nothing that would cause it to erase the entire thing so something else is going on. If you can, include a WordPress login for the site you have this installed in when you submit the Contact Us form so we can login and debug the issue.

I finally got the plugin working and loved it but when I submitted the form it erased the entire thing! So frustrating. I know it's going to be great, but I also need to know it will save. I am using PHP5, Wordpress Version 2.9. Help!

I will chat with my host about the issue. Much appreciated, Tara Carl Hancock on "Form not submitting" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-not-submitting#post-2233 Fri, 18 Dec 2009 15:44:30 +0000 Carl Hancock 2233@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Try this. Go to your permalinks settings for this site and temporarily change it so that this site is using the default permalink setting. It should look like this: Ex. <a href="http://www.elasticmind.ca/?p=123" rel="nofollow">http://www.elasticmind.ca/?p=123</a> Now go to your Contact page and submit the form. It will work. Your web host or specific hosting account has something going on with the URL rewriting that is preventing the form from submitting to itself. This is why it works if you have your permalinks setup to use ?p=XXX instead of the page name. You are going to have to contact your host to try and determine the issue. Your site also has issues as you can't login to the admin without going to a specific page within the admin. Just going to /wp-admin and logging in doesn't work. This could very well be related. If they are unable to assist you I would strongly consider switching hosts, you shouldn't be having these problems with your permalinks. We have customers on all different web hosts and nobody else is experiencing this issue... we can recommend a good web host if you would like.

Can you help me with the issue with my form? I'd really like to get this thing to work and I'm unsure what my next steps should be.

Oh and Carl, I keep subscribing to this thread but I never get emailed your responses... not sure why. Carl Hancock on "Form not submitting" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-not-submitting#post-2111 Thu, 10 Dec 2009 14:48:18 +0000 Carl Hancock 2111@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ The form not submitting is probably URL rewriting related. It's definitely a server configuration issue that is preventing the form from submitting to itself. Hosting PHP based sites on IIS is usually a recipe for problems. Who is your web host?
