This would however require a new lead to be created (by GFFormDisplay::handle_submission()) and then using the hook to either remove the earlier lead and update the new one with the ID from the earlier lead or update the values for the earlier lead with the new ones and remove the newly created lead. Besides being a bit complicated I could imagine that the lead ID jugling might cause other problems.</p> <p>Another solution would require the ability to access the lead data before a new one is created. I couldn't find such a hook so I've tried it by creating my own filter in GFFormsModel::save_lead() by adding this line after line 996:</p> <pre><code>$lead = apply_filters(&quot;gform_pre_save_lead&quot;, $lead);</code></pre> <p>Using this filter to inject the lead ID for an existing lead into the lead data worked perfectly.</p> <p>Since I'm not a supporter of making modifications to existing plugins I am still wondering if I missed something and that there might be a better solution to the problem.</p> <p>Any suggestions? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/save-and-return-for-member-users#post-61563 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 07:22:06 +0000 contentninjas 61563@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I create pretty long and complex forms. My members and user complain they can't save and return later to finish. To me this seems like a very fundamental and logical feature to have when stating that you are the best provider of form solutions. I have stopped recommending Gravity Forms to my clients because of the lack of a save and finish later feature. I've read on a couple of thread you are expecting to incorporate this feature is future release. When is that going to be? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/update-a-meta-form-field-after-a-form-is-submitted#post-306651 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:58:50 +0000 DHopkins 306651@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm looking to update a meta form field after an entry is made.

I would like a registered user to be able to save a partially filled form and come back to it later, or save the form as he/she fills it up so that in the event of a crash/outage/whatever, when they're back to the form they don't have to start over.</p> <p>Does this make sense? Can I use a button that submits a partially filled form using AJAX, and restores the information if the user visits the page again while logged in?</p> <p>I would appreciate your help, thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cant-save-or-edit-form-after-adding-new-field#post-146271 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 13:01:33 +0000 apsu 146271@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi</p> <p>I have just tried to add an additional form field (paragraph text) to a duplicated form.</p> <p>Since adding, I cannot Save or cannot edit any of the other fields.</p> <p>I have to refresh the page to do anything, but this obviously does not save the new fields. </p> <p>Can anyone help?

This appears to be a new issue since the last update.</p> <p>Here is an example of the error message:</p> <blockquote><p>This webpage is not available<br /> The webpage at [website here] might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.<br /> The connection to [website here] was interrupted.<br /> Error 103 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED): Unknown error.</p></blockquote> <p>I've attempted running it in safe mode but it has not fixed the issue. I do not have any of the add-ons activated.

Realizing that everyone has schedules, we created a spreadsheet where each team member can go and sign-up (using the drop-down menu in each cell which has a "Yes" or "No" option). Based on that, the daily total is generated, and accordingly the right number of equipment is brought for the practice.</p> <p>The reason we want to try GravityForms is because we already have a Wordpress site for our team, and having GravityForms would make it such that we don't have any external service (like Google Docs) and can just have a tab with this "form" on it in the website itself. The drop-downs can be changed to simple checkboxes, and the names would be hardcoded in too. One important feature is having the daily total show up. We actually have a large team of 40 players - this Google Docs spreadsheet is just a sample I created.</p> <p>We really like the look and ease of GravityForms, but is replicating this even possible?</p> <p>Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cant-save-or-edit-form#post-162046 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 11:18:23 +0000 Salterra 162046@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I just purchased the developers version and cant even get started.
