The back and forth after the initial submission would have to take place via email using the Notifications. It doesn't support back and forth using the Entry Notes as the Notes are one way and sent via email.</p> <p>Having some way to handle back and forth communication is something we'd love to create an Add-On for in the future. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-couple-quesitons#post-20540 Mon, 14 Mar 2011 12:56:43 +0000 plymplan 20540@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I would like to offer a service to answer questions that users submit along with photographs. Can gravity forms work to create user-submitted forms which can include a threaded discussion viewable only by me (the admin) and the user? I really just need some very lightweight helpdesk or ticket system...but prefer to keep it within Wordpress admin panel rather than bolt on yet another solution.</p> <p>Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-couple-quesitons#post-8887 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 11:17:14 +0000 Lee Blue 8887@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>We have been integrating many ecommerce features into Gravity Forms with the PHPurchase Ecommerce Plugin.

The only downside is that it relies on time-based access to the form (e.g., 24 hour access) rather than per-post-submission access. Note that there's currently a plugin conflict between these two plugins; to get the kind of thing I've just mentioned working you have to use the sequential upgrade feature.</p> <p>PHPurchase is the closest I've found to what you're after (and I've looked and looked and looked). The main problem I see with it is that form submissions are generated before payment. If the user decides not to pay, and you're using Gravity Forms as a front-end posting mechanism, then the posts will go live without payment. You could regulate this by setting the form's submission status to "Draft", but that would require a manual release of all submitted posts/questions that are in fact paid for. Not so flash.</p> <p>I can't wait for the GF crew to release what Carl mentions above. Many people would love to have that feature. In the meantime, the only other options I see are having a developer code this up for you or using a specific WordPress theme that has pay-per-post or a deposit system built into it. There are a few of those around, but the real downside (too much of a downside for me) is that they don't integrate with GF.</p> <p>All the best<br /> Richard </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-couple-quesitons#post-5540 Tue, 18 May 2010 11:04:32 +0000 Carl Hancock 5540@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can't currently limit the number of form submissions someone submits.</p> <p>The only ecommerce plugin I know of that has some sort of Gravity Forms integration is phpurchase but I haven't actually used it myself.</p> <p>We do plan on releasing a payment add-on later this year that will make it possible to charge for post submissions. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/a-couple-quesitons#post-5525 Tue, 18 May 2010 02:08:17 +0000 ybyalik 5525@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>1. Can you limit the amount of questions a specific user can ask?<br /> 2. Are there any ecommerce plugins that could easily be integrated with this script? I want to charge users for asking questions and I don't know the best way to do it </p>
