The plugins on this site are identical to the ones on the site where the form worked and submitted to drafts. I can see no conflicts.</p> <p>The question I have, is if it redirects to another site with the URL as shown above, where in either the DB or in a file is that URL stored?</p> <p>It's even using an form ID in the the query string of "1" when the ID of the live form is actually 4. I can't understand why I create a brand new form yet the result is a redirect with an incorrect form ID to a URL that is not present anywhere in the front or back end of the site. </p> <p>Is there someone I could have actually go into our admin and look?

Brighterleadership.com (BL) and Brighterpeople.org (BP).</p> <p>BL was for our content and BP was for user submitted stories, for which we would use gravity forms. I created a user submitted post page on BP and tested it and it worked.</p> <p>Then we decided to merge the two concepts into BL and ditch BP.</p> <p>I installed gravity forms using the plugin upload feature onto BL and then exported the form from BP and imported to BL.</p> <p>When using the form on BL it would redirect to BP in a new window. I could not work out why.</p> <p>So I deleted the form and created a new form in BL from scratch. And it still redirected to BP with the following message:</p> <p>We cannot find your form</p> <p>using the following URL:</p> <p><a href="http://www.brighterpeople.org/stories-share-yours/#gf_1" rel="nofollow">http://www.brighterpeople.org/stories-share-yours/#gf_1</a></p> <p>So I deleted EVERYTHING. All the form entries and the plugin. I installed the plugin again on BL and created the form from scratch again.</p> <p>But it still opens the BP link. How does it even know this site exists? </p> <p>The only thing I can think of is that importing a form from another site overrode something permanently but how?</p> <p>Anyway, how do I destroy any reference to the BP site so that the form loads the post entry into post drafts with the little ajax spinning wheel rather than opening a new tab and heading to the old site?</p> <p>Thanks (and I hope this makes sense, because it only just does to me) </p>
