It depends on the theme and how the styles were applied. We will need a link to your form and a notation with which elements you would like to restyle. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-47220 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:29:01 +0000 FanaticWeb 47220@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Speaking of Content Templates, what is the best way to Control the layout display outputted on the front end from within the Content template field?</p> <p>I got the Output CSS set to Yes and Output HTML5 set to Yes, I'm assuming by doing so, GF's default CSS is overriding the theme's css. Can we create a separate CSS and use it to label the Content template fields or do we just add them to the existing GF css file? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-37654 Tue, 11 Oct 2011 21:03:32 +0000 Chris Hajer 37654@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It can all be accomplished and all the hooks and filters are documented.

I'm bound to say I do not comprehend your hint exactly. Possibly due to some lack in GF background knowledge, special pre-populate forms... </p> <p>Just to ensure: With the described pre-pupulate method I could build a link "edit" in my single.php, which is visible only for the post author. When the Author clicks the links, he gets to a pre-populatet from with all previous submitted data, when then editing data and saving it will overwrite the old post data? </p> <p>Is there some resource/FAQ for pre-populating forms? As I rughly understand how this could be done with a pre-populated form, I have no idea how to get the existing posts data prepopulated... Would I get support if I have some problems with the pre-populated data (developer license)?</p> <p>The Directory Plugin sounds nice, too. Thanks for the link. I will have a closer look on this, perhaps this what I am looking for. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-37508 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 23:44:37 +0000 Chris Hajer 37508@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It's not built in, but it can be accomplished. </p> <p>You could create a form that is pre-populated with data from a previous form submission. Then you would control access to that in whatever way makes sense to you. The visitor can then see the data that was previously submitted, edit it, resubmit, and update the existing data.</p> <p>The 3rd party Gravity Forms Directory Add-on also has front end editing of entries.<br /> <a href="http://www.seodenver.com/plugins/gravity-forms-addons/" rel="nofollow">http://www.seodenver.com/plugins/gravity-forms-addons/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-37484 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 16:30:42 +0000 Mobe 37484@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>"Gravity Forms does not currently provide post editing capabilities. This is a feature we would like to add in the future once we determine the best way to handle it."</p> <p>Is there any news on providing editing post capabilities? </p> <p>I am searching for a clean way to provide frontend post creating/editing for users with a nice/themed form. GF would be the perfect solution, if there were just post editing capabilities in frontend. The mentioned solution in giving the user rights to edit posts in WP Backend is unfortunately no solution. I want to use GF to keep users out of the backend, otherwise I could let users straight away write posts in backend.</p> <p>I track GF for several Month now und would love to see this improvement in Post creating capabilities. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-30228 Sun, 17 Jul 2011 17:52:35 +0000 Chris Hajer 30228@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The Post Content Template is present when you insert a "body" Post Field. (There is a content template present for the title too.) So, it's in the Post section, when you insert a Body or Title. There is a checkbox to "create content template". Tick that and you will see this:</p> <p><a href="http://min.us/leaGH8" rel="nofollow">Screenshot</a></p> <p>Yes, the admin can ensure the payment is processed before publishing. The payment status is stored by the PayPal add-on.</p> <p>For the keywords, I'm not certain <em>how</em> it would work with AIOSEOP. However, I'm certain that you CAN do it. If the information is captured by Gravity Forms, you will be able to use it elsewhere on your site and for that post. If AIOSEOP uses a custom field to store the meta keywords, I'm certain you could put the user submitted keywords into a custom field where AIOSEOP can find them. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-30223 Sun, 17 Jul 2011 15:58:34 +0000 Ally 30223@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Chris, thank you!</p> <p>I've been tinkering on the demo since my post and have not yet found anything titled: Content Template. I've looked through Standard, Advanced, Post, and Pricing. Where do I find this?</p> <p>On the pay-to-post option, since the Admin must first approve the post, is there a way to know for sure if the payment has processed? I'm looking at GF for two diff projects; one is a fundraiser site, so if it is successful, my concern would be tracking if payment had been processed. Is there a way to hide the form and have it only available through the paypal confirmation page?</p> <p>For 3, the keyword question, I was wondering if they would tie into the actual All-in-One SEO. They can also appear at the bottom of a post.</p> <p>I do have questions about another use of GF, so I'll start that topic now. Please let me know where I can find the Content Template. Thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-30220 Sun, 17 Jul 2011 15:26:45 +0000 Chris Hajer 30220@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>1. The content template is easy to configure when you create your form. It does not require a developer or coder, it can all be done from the form admin.</p> <p>2. Yes, sort of. The form would accept their post submission, and then send them to PayPal for payment. So, it's more of a "pay for each post" than "choose the number of posts you want to purchase." To do this, you would need to PayPal Add-On, which is available to <a href="http://www.gravityforms.com/purchase-gravity-forms/" title="Purchase options" rel="nofollow">Developer License</a> holders, along with all the other Advanced form add-ons.</p> <p>3. Yes, you can present a list of keywords that can be selected and used in the post. I'm not sure HOW you are going to use the keywords in the post, but the list can be made available and included in the post.</p> <p>4. You can set them to draft status and then approve them before they're published.</p> <p>I hope that answers all your questions. If you have more questions, please feel free to start a new topic with those questions. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-gravityforms-do-this-page-creation-page-editing#post-30217 Sun, 17 Jul 2011 15:04:44 +0000 Ally 30217@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have similar questions to what egjweb first asked - and a few more. </p> <p>In Carl's reply to question 2, he references setting the images to post in the actual post by configuring in the Content Template. Is this something easy enough for a non tech person to do, or does it require a more experienced coder/developer? If a non-tech can do, where would I find info on how to do this?</p> <p>Is there a way to set this up as pay-to-post option? For example, before a user has access to the content submittal form they would first choose from a range of options (ie. post once, post 10 times, etc.) and would then have access to post once payment was processed?</p> <p>I'm not familiar with all of the terminology used, but what I was hoping to do on the site, for SEO purposes, would be to create a user submittal form that includes keywords they could select from and that would be included in their post. Is that possible?</p> <p>Can this be set so that the content will NOT publish until the admin reviews?</p> <p>Thank you for your help! </p>
