After more testing it seem as though whenever "http://" is submitted to the form handler something breaks and it returns the form without processing it. So even with my new form variable if I put http:// or https:// in the field it fails. I'm still looking into where the error is happening. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/403-forbidden-on-submit#post-59050 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:33:01 +0000 David Peralty 59050@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Still strange that this error occurred. I'm going to try to recreate it, but I'm glad you were able to sort it out. What made you try swapping out that field? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/403-forbidden-on-submit#post-59049 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:31:13 +0000 BrandLabs 59049@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I was able to get this fixed. I removed the website advanced field in the form I was using and everything started working again. I have switched this out for a standard text field. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/403-forbidden-on-submit#post-59039 Tue, 15 May 2012 14:51:19 +0000 David Peralty 59039@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You have your JQuery being called in the footer of your theme and Gravity Forms requires it in the header. Also, you are a few versions behind in your JQuery and could potentially move up to one of the more modern versions like the 1.7.1 that WordPress includes. Lastly, can you try the following please: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Testing_for_a_Theme/Plugin_Conflict" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Testing_for_a_Theme/Plugin_Conflict</a> (Specifically testing in the default theme)</p> <p>Let me know if there are any improvements. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/403-forbidden-on-submit#post-59037 Tue, 15 May 2012 14:40:10 +0000 BrandLabs 59037@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>There's still an error, there's no success message, you have to look at the network activity with a plugin like firebug or inspector to see the request headers. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/403-forbidden-on-submit#post-59035 Tue, 15 May 2012 14:33:31 +0000 David Peralty 59035@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Also, I just submitted without issue. No 403 error for me.

Also, do forms work in Preview mode?

I have attempted to use the form with and with out some customizations. The form posts back to the same URL it's on. I did update the gravity forms plugin during troubleshooting. </p> <p>I have a basic test form setup, currently only the gravity forms plugin is enabled no gravity forms addons.</p> <p><a href="http://www.brandlabs.us/test-page-hjijlaewuilvnjklvnajlf2839ry8hfjk324923j8sw" rel="nofollow">http://www.brandlabs.us/test-page-hjijlaewuilvnjklvnajlf2839ry8hfjk324923j8sw</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/403-forbidden-on-submit#post-59025 Tue, 15 May 2012 14:15:53 +0000 David Peralty 59025@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>How did you move them from your test site to live site? What URL does the form seem to try to go to? Do you have custom functions being applied to your forms? Were your environments the same (WordPress, Gravity Forms, Plugins?) </p>
