It depends on the theme and how the styles were applied. We will need a link to your form and a notation with which elements you would like to restyle. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-47220 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:29:01 +0000 FanaticWeb 47220@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Speaking of Content Templates, what is the best way to Control the layout display outputted on the front end from within the Content template field?</p> <p>I got the Output CSS set to Yes and Output HTML5 set to Yes, I'm assuming by doing so, GF's default CSS is overriding the theme's css. Can we create a separate CSS and use it to label the Content template fields or do we just add them to the existing GF css file? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-37654 Tue, 11 Oct 2011 21:03:32 +0000 Chris Hajer 37654@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It can all be accomplished and all the hooks and filters are documented.

I'm bound to say I do not comprehend your hint exactly. Possibly due to some lack in GF background knowledge, special pre-populate forms... </p> <p>Just to ensure: With the described pre-pupulate method I could build a link "edit" in my single.php, which is visible only for the post author. When the Author clicks the links, he gets to a pre-populatet from with all previous submitted data, when then editing data and saving it will overwrite the old post data? </p> <p>Is there some resource/FAQ for pre-populating forms? As I rughly understand how this could be done with a pre-populated form, I have no idea how to get the existing posts data prepopulated... Would I get support if I have some problems with the pre-populated data (developer license)?</p> <p>The Directory Plugin sounds nice, too. Thanks for the link. I will have a closer look on this, perhaps this what I am looking for. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-37508 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 23:44:37 +0000 Chris Hajer 37508@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It's not built in, but it can be accomplished. </p> <p>You could create a form that is pre-populated with data from a previous form submission. Then you would control access to that in whatever way makes sense to you. The visitor can then see the data that was previously submitted, edit it, resubmit, and update the existing data.</p> <p>The 3rd party Gravity Forms Directory Add-on also has front end editing of entries.<br /> <a href="http://www.seodenver.com/plugins/gravity-forms-addons/" rel="nofollow">http://www.seodenver.com/plugins/gravity-forms-addons/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-37484 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 16:30:42 +0000 Mobe 37484@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>"Gravity Forms does not currently provide post editing capabilities. This is a feature we would like to add in the future once we determine the best way to handle it."</p> <p>Is there any news on providing editing post capabilities? </p> <p>I am searching for a clean way to provide frontend post creating/editing for users with a nice/themed form. GF would be the perfect solution, if there were just post editing capabilities in frontend. The mentioned solution in giving the user rights to edit posts in WP Backend is unfortunately no solution. I want to use GF to keep users out of the backend, otherwise I could let users straight away write posts in backend.</p> <p>I track GF for several Month now und would love to see this improvement in Post creating capabilities. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/editing-data-and-posts#post-34032 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 14:37:51 +0000 Doug 34032@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>really looking forward to this feature in 1.7 </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/editing-data-and-posts#post-30669 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 12:53:01 +0000 Carl Hancock 30669@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The bad news is there isn't really a simple work around. Allowing users to view and edit entries on the front end is fairly complex, especially as it relates to security and preventing people from viewing and editing entries they shouldn't have access to. So there isn't an easy solution. It's a fairly complex customization and requires PHP knowledge as well as how to use WordPress hooks and filters.</p> <p>The good news is this functionality has been added to our road map and is slated to be part of the Gravity Forms v1.7 release. So while it won't be in the next major release (v1.6) due to feature freeze, it is one of the major features we will be adding in v1.7. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/editing-data-and-posts#post-30645 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 10:55:36 +0000 Jean-Francois Dube 30645@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Could you point to a "simple workaround" we *non-coders* should look at ?</p> <p>Many many thanks for the GREAT plugin! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/editing-data-and-posts#post-30309 Mon, 18 Jul 2011 15:08:24 +0000 Carl Hancock 30309@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Editing is fairly complex because you need to know when they should be able to edit, who should be able to edit, etc. We have a good idea of how we are going to handle it, but we haven't started development on this functionality just yet. It's still something we want to release this year. We are working on Gravity Forms v1.6. and currently it isn't slated to be included in this release, but we can look at including it in the 1.7 release. It's something we definitely want to add but it has to be well thought out and implemented properly. </p>
