I thought I'd have to refresh the page so did that but didn't see any difference. I've now tried this on a different browser (at work) and all is good - it looks like the page was most probably cached by my browser.</p> <p>Moving forward now...<br /> It's important to note my form is configured to use European dates. How are dates handled in creating the URL created by 'Pass Field Data Via Query String'?</p> <p>I need my 'output URL' to include 12/11/2010 (12th November 2010) which includes the /<br /> Is GF outputting the / for use in the URL? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v15b1-not-all-fields-avail-to-include-pass-field-data-via-query-string#post-12248 Sun, 07 Nov 2010 21:09:17 +0000 Alex Cancado 12248@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The field variables only get "refreshed" when you reload the page. So if you add new fields to the form, you will only see them as an option after you save the form and reload the page. This is something we are looking to improve on a later release.<br /> If the fields don't show up even after reloading the page, let me know and I will look into it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v15b1-not-all-fields-avail-to-include-pass-field-data-via-query-string#post-12229 Sun, 07 Nov 2010 16:41:46 +0000 zestylemon 12229@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Using GF v1.5b1; on the Confirmation tab of a new form I'm using the 'Pass Field Data Via Query String' option. Using the 'Insert form field' dropdown list; 4 of my most recently added fields don't appear in the list.</p> <p>2 of the fileds are 'date' fields (using the 'date picker')<br /> 2 of the fields are 'dropdown' fields (using a value for each entry)</p> <p>Is this a bug or is it not possible to include these 2 types of fields? </p>
