I've also made this a required field so technically they shouldn't be able to submit without being logged in (otherwise it would be blank). I've also checked the NO DUPLICATES box so that the user can't submit twice.</p> <p>I've done the same for USER LOGIN.</p> <p>All this sounds like it should work just fine but whether I'm logged in or logged out, I can submit as many times as I want. Checking the submissions, it is recording my email address and USER LOGIN but it isn't stopping submissions when I'm not logged in (both fields are blank) and it also isn't stopping multiple submissions from the same user.</p> <p>Thoughts? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/button-conditional-logic-breaks-submission#post-283340 Tue, 28 May 2013 10:05:07 +0000 rezzz 283340@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a normal/standard contact form on my website that I had "grandfathered" in on my re-work of the website. It has no Button logic at all. I created several other forms that do have button logic on them. The standard form worked great still in the latest upgrade. But couldn't figured out why all my new forms weren't working at all, until I compared the 2 form settings. Found out that if I left off the Button Conditional Logic, the form worked fine. </p> <p>Any reason or anything to point me in the direction to solving this issue? Much appreciated. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/problem-with-submission-errors-not-visible#post-50904 Wed, 29 Feb 2012 05:24:35 +0000 stuarthenshall 50904@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am receiving the following...<br /> "There was a problem with your submission. Errors have been highlighted below." </p> <p>I can't see or identify any errors. No red codes on the form. I can force obvious errors e.g. by not putting in a number or required field. I can make those corrects although on submit I still get the same text. </p> <p>This is not true for the whole form which is driven off of radio buttons. Eg one of the three results in a submission. The other two provide the error above. I have deleted fields and added fields etc. To no avail. </p> <p>This is happening in the preview mode as well as on the website. So it is not CSS setting etc. and I have tried all of them in settings. I have also exported the form and reimported etc. </p> <p>This isn't the first time I've had this sort of issue. I've cured it before by starting from scratch and creating a new form. I'm presuming it is corrupt in some way. </p> <p>What's the solution? I'm running Gravity Forms 1.6.3 Wordpress 3.3.1 valid license etc. </p> <p>Happy to send log-in details etc. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/form-submission-sends-notification-email-to-multiple-recipients#post-273518 Fri, 24 May 2013 12:16:44 +0000 marc972 273518@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is it possible to have 2 different email addresses receive a notification when a user submits a form? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/customise-display-of-entry_url-in-email-submission#post-204788 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 23:55:53 +0000 Jason 204788@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is there any way to wrap this around a word like you would a simple href tag, like '<a href="#" rel="nofollow">log in to view this entry</a>' rather than simply having the fully qualified URL in the email submission?<br /> You know what I mean yeah? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/wrong-amount-sent-to-paypal#post-160293 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 20:00:24 +0000 InternalWealth 160293@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi there. </p> <p>I have Gravity + PayPal addon set up on a site in order to manage workshop registration. User can select to attend one or more days...</p> <p>In order to achieve this, I have set up a hidden product field at $0.10 and then added a required option field with checkbox select, so the user can select one day at (x) amount or 2 days at (x + x) amount.</p> <p>The total shows up perfectly at the bottom of the form. When submit is clicked, however, the total amount is not passed to paypal.... just the product amount is. For some reason, the option amounts are dropped and not sent to PayPal..</p> <p>So if a user selects Day 1 ($34.50), total shows $34.60 - submit is clicked and a payment of $.10 shows up on PayPal site.</p> <p><a href="http://en.yasminyoga.com/registration/" rel="nofollow">http://en.yasminyoga.com/registration/</a></p> <p>Any ideas?????</p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/paypal-submission-not-working#post-109370 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 22:27:53 +0000 InlightnDesign 109370@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Greetings,</p> <p>I am admin of <a href="http://pevar.com" rel="nofollow">http://pevar.com</a>.<br /> I created a form for people to order a CD.<br /> See here: <a href="http://pevar.com/music/from-the-core/" rel="nofollow">http://pevar.com/music/from-the-core/</a> (scroll down to find the form)</p> <p>I had it setup with a Payment Option:<br /> - Check or Money Order, and<br /> - Credit Card via PayPal</p> <p>I had conditional logic set on the Check &amp; PayPal options<br /> to show the related form for credit card<br /> or the info for mailing in a check or money order.</p> <p>However, I had added the price of the product both within the<br /> form for the payment option and also the product itself<br /> causing a double up, making it cost double for one CD.</p> <p>So, I went into the form editor and updated it to resolve this issue.<br /> However, it then caused the Credit Card/PayPal payment option<br /> to get all frakked up... now it posts an error to the form<br /> and doesn't send you to PayPal to complete purchase?</p> <p>I have currently disabled the PayPal option on the form, as people were having issues<br /> and I don't want that to happen any more for my client.</p> <p>How would I go about fixing this PayPal issue?

I have a Java Applet that uses javascript to dynamically populate hidden fields. I got it to display but the data is not saving in GFs. I did a var_dump on $_POST and $entry in the gform_post_data hook and the data shows up in $_POST but not in entry. I am a bit confused. I assume there needs to be some way to tell the API what the form field name is or do I need to manually assign something to the Entry Object before it is saved? If I add a default text field to the form it saves correctly but my field does not.</p> <p>I know I am probably just missing a step or misunderstanding the API. Any help or point to a basic tutorial would be helpful. The API Documentation seems to be more of a reference than detailed documentation. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/show-all-submission-results-after-form-has-been-submited#post-135292 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:49:10 +0000 rinths 135292@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,<br /> I want to know how I can set up gravity forms to display ALL the enteries after the form has been submitted.<br /> Basically I want the form to display ALL the submissions for that form in a existing page. The submissions are made every week so it would be added to the same page every week rather then create a new one, is there a way to do this? </p>
