What am I missing?<br /> Thnx </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cange-user-role-after-completing-form#post-47954 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:56:20 +0000 David Smith 47954@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Jacques,</p> <p>Currently there is no simple way to accomplish conditional roles. If you are interested in coding a custom solution, I'd be happy to give you some pointers. </p>
