His plugins were universally stripping the slashes that are used to escape special characters which is a VERY BAD thing to do, causes issues with Gravity Forms and opens up your WordPress site to SQL injection attacks.</p> <p>We are going to implement a check on the meta information and return a message if it appears to have been tampered with. Once implemented, it will tell you there is a problem and your changes won't save until the conflict has been resolved and corrected.</p> <p>The Gravity Forms form builder makes extensive use of AJAX and if a plugin universally strips the slash used to escape special characters this causes major problems for the data that is being post via AJAX.</p> <p>WordPress has built in special character handling, we rely on this special character handling as does any well written plugin. Any plugin that is tampering with that is not only poorly written but also a serious security vulnerability. </p> <p>John Godley updated the Redirection plugin last last night to remove this issue and it is available now on the repository. I brought the issue to Mark Jaquith's attention and that helped things to move quickly once Jaquith realized the type of security vulnerability this introduced to anyone using these plugins.</p> <p>1.4 will introduce the ability to import/export forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/forms-deleted-in-135-oops-we-could-not-locate-your-form#post-2886 Fri, 22 Jan 2010 12:32:19 +0000 thehorse 2886@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is this a conflict with the Redirection plugin? </p> <p>Unfortunately, I completely lost 2 contact forms as well. The entire record on _rg_form_meta.display_meta is blank after you try to save. </p> <p>As this is not the first time I've completely lost forms to some type of save issue, can I suggest that the update function be improved to check that the display_meta column isn't updated to null. I know this won't fix fragmented updates....</p> <p>Also, it would be great if the GF's had ability to export/import form configs, storing them in the plugin folder, so you can revert to a good copy if something like this happens. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/forms-deleted-in-135-oops-we-could-not-locate-your-form#post-2829 Tue, 19 Jan 2010 16:36:11 +0000 Carl Hancock 2829@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>As mentioned in your other forum post, this was due to another plugin conflicting with Gravity Forms javascript.

We could not locate your form." </p> <p>Data that had previously been submitted via the form seems to be partially saved - when i click on the "Entries" button i can see a line listing of all entries, but when i try to click on "view" in any of the entries to get further details it simply shows the Notes filed and nothing else.</p> <p>Luckily i duplicated my form first before i made edits, but my original form now doesn't work at all and i'm scared to make any updates to my new form.</p> <p>i'm using wordpress 2.8.6 and, after solving some jquery conflicts a while back, have been using gravity forms without any problem for over a month. </p> <p>Let me know if you're interested in logging into my account and seeing this in action. I can recreate the bug by duplicating any form, and then making any edit to the new form. </p> <p>Sincerely,<br /> Johnny </p>
