That could be coming from another plugin or the theme. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-118180 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 03:07:48 +0000 mrav 118180@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm having the same problem (FRUSTRATING!). I can't delete the fields I accidentally put in. I've had my site for 1 1/2 and I'm not changing my theme to the WP default theme. I'm currently using Contact Form 7. I decided to go with Gravity Forms thinking it's an upgrade to CF7.</p> <p>Please help me fix this.</p> <p>Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-7171 Thu, 08 Jul 2010 15:55:29 +0000 Carl Hancock 7171@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It sounds like for whatever reason the data associated with that form is corrupt. Which is why it is acting the way it is and your other forms are acting fine. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-7167 Thu, 08 Jul 2010 15:40:15 +0000 startac 7167@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>sorry let me be a little more clear:</p> <p>there was an area in the form that looked blank but when i rolled over it with the cursor, i got the edit and delete field option. </p> <p>i disabled all of the plugins except for gravity forms and the problem was still there</p> <p>i then switched to the default wp theme (twenty ten) and went back to the form. the blank area where the field had been was gone. so i didn't have to delete it.</p> <p>i then re-enabled the artisteer theme and everything was still ok. i have since created half a dozen forms and all are just fine. no problems saving editing or deleting fields. i haven't been able to re-create what happened. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-6993 Mon, 05 Jul 2010 09:50:15 +0000 Carl Hancock 6993@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm a little confused. So when you switched to the Default theme the field was deleted or you were able to delete it? I think something (specifically javascript) in the Artisteer theme is interfering with the Gravity Forms javascript.</p> <p>With the default theme installed try creating some test forms, and delete fields as part of your tests.</p> <p>Then with the Artisteer theme activated do the same.</p> <p>My hunch is something in the Artisteer theme is causing javascript issues. The Artisteer theme shouldn't be outputting ANY javascript in the admin. This is a common mistake made by developers (theme and plugin). </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-6964 Fri, 02 Jul 2010 17:41:21 +0000 startac 6964@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>thanks for the quick reply. i disabled all the plugins first. went back to the form and it was still exhibiting the same behaviour.<br /> (a blank area where the multiple choice had existed with the option to edit or delete)<br /> i then tried switching the theme to the default and went back to the form. the blank area disappeared. i have tried to recreate the issue and can't...</p> <p>I am using an Artisteer generated them. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-6963 Fri, 02 Jul 2010 17:05:40 +0000 Carl Hancock 6963@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You will need to deactivate ALL other plugins and activate the default WordPress theme. It could be a plugin or even a theme causing a conflict which is why I said activate the default WordPress theme.</p> <p>Then test Gravity Forms and see if you can replicate the issue. If the form works fine then it is a theme or plugin conflict.</p> <p>- Activate your theme<br /> - Test Gravity Forms to see if you can replicate the issue</p> <p>If the form works fine then it is a plugin conflict. If the form doesn't work now then it is a theme conflict involving javascript your theme is outputting in the admin. </p> <p>If the form works fine then check for plugin conflicts.</p> <p>- Activate each plugin one by one<br /> - Test Gravity Forms to see if you can replicate the issue after each plugin</p> <p>There isn't currently a list of plugins that conflict. A lot of times users don't report back what plugin caused the conflict, and plugins are changed and updated so often that when a plugin is reported it is corrected and then works fine.</p> <p>If it's not a javascript issue that is causing the problem then it could be a special character issue with the values in the multiple choice field. What were the values for your multiple choice field? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/delete-field-not-deleting#post-6961 Fri, 02 Jul 2010 16:57:19 +0000 startac 6961@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I just installed gravity forms and I'm working on my first form. I entered a few fields just fine. Then I entered a multiple choice field. Decided that I didn't want it and clicked to delete it. Got a popup confirmation to delete the field. Clicked OK.<br /> The field did not delete. Tried it a few more times with the same result. </p> <p>I clicked to save the form and it's stuck on "saving please wait"</p> <p>I saw some other posts with similar issues and people saying it was a conflict with one plugin or another. Is there a list somewhere of plugins that could cause potential issues with this plugin?</p> <p>How do I fix the problem I'm having right now?</p> <p>I tried clicking on edit forms and then went back into the form. There's a blank space where the field existed. When I roll over it I get the option to edit (which does nothing when clicked on) or delete which gives me the same confirmation but does not delete. </p>
