All my best. borsattoc on "Detect if submitted form is valid" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/detect-if-submitted-form-is-valid#post-368292 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 11:50:20 +0000 borsattoc 368292@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I cannot use a single URL becase every contact page has a different URL containing lang info (eg. /de/contact, es/contacto it/,contatti etc). I tried using a relative URL such as ?sent=true but you use parse_url inside handle_confirmation() and it fails redirecting me to the homepage. I'll try to figure out a different approach. Thank you for your time.

Then you could have your url include: ?frmsuccess=1 And then test against that using PHP to hide your message. borsattoc on "Detect if submitted form is valid" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/detect-if-submitted-form-is-valid#post-368239 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 11:24:09 +0000 borsattoc 368239@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I must use page content because the website is running in 5 different languages and every page translation has different shortcodes. I cannot use a single text for description unless I create a different form for each language (which is not a good solution since we are using wpml to translate strings). So here we come back to the original question. Is there a method to detect if submitted form is valid?

What I have to do is to show a message like "For information bla bla fill the form below". Then, after submission, it shows a message like: "For information bla bla fill the form below. Thank you for contacting us". What I need is to hide "For information bla bla fill the form below" after the form has been successfully submitted.

Would they not be what you need? borsattoc on "Detect if submitted form is valid" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/detect-if-submitted-form-is-valid#post-367918 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 07:57:59 +0000 borsattoc 367918@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hello, I have a question regarding form submission. I'd like to hide a message on my page only when users submit my form. How can I detect if submitted form is valid? I'm trying to do something like this in my template page: <pre><code><h1 <?php post_class(); ?>><?php the_title(); ?></h1> <?php if(empty($_POST) /* || $_POST && invalid data supplied */ ): ?> <?php the_content(); ?> <?php else: ?> <?php _e("Thank you for contacting us. We have received your message and will do our best to reply within one working day.","gravity_form") ?> <?php endif; ?></code></pre> Thank you for your support
