I'll check out that plugin you mentioned. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v17beta1-enable-form-persistence#post-196535 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 10:01:51 +0000 ZeadsDead 196535@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>you are correct. thank you. problem solved, thread closed.</p> <p>I decided to use this plugin instead:<br /> <a href="https://github.com/soulseekah/Gravity-Forms-Saved-Forms-Addon" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/soulseekah/Gravity-Forms-Saved-Forms-Addon</a></p> <p>You will see it is updated more often, includes more features, and works great with the recent 1.7beta2 release.</p> <p>The author has added multipage support and is now troubleshooting minor issues. Although there is already a 'save for later' button at the bottom of each page, he has also agreed to make the 'Previous' and 'Next' button save the data as well.</p> <p>I highly recommend it and encourage you to check it out. The author is active on support, whereas the persistent addon author does not offer much help - even after offering to pay for an upgrade.</p> <p>I think if GF has plans to include this feature in a future release, this would be a great place to start. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v17beta1-enable-form-persistence#post-184351 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 17:46:47 +0000 Chris Hajer 184351@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Please check with the developer of that plugin. It's probable they need to update their plugin to be ready for Gravity Forms 1.7. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v17beta1-enable-form-persistence#post-184141 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 13:17:14 +0000 ZeadsDead 184141@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes I do have it installed and it does not seem to be working with the 1.7beta1.</p> <p>I will keep testing. Maybe I have something configured wrong.</p> <p>Thanks, Ben</p> <p>I love the new admin interface by the way. Much better. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v17beta1-enable-form-persistence#post-184112 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 12:22:36 +0000 Chris Hajer 184112@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>That text is not coming from the Gravity Forms plugin. It comes from the Gravity Forms Data Persistence Add-on (which was developed by a 3rd party.) It's available here: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on/</a></p> <p>It's in this file (line 116):<br /> <a href="http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on/trunk/persistent_multipage_forms.php" rel="nofollow">http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on/trunk/persistent_multipage_forms.php</a></p> <p>Do you have that plugin installed currently? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gf-v17beta1-enable-form-persistence#post-183411 Sun, 24 Mar 2013 21:50:48 +0000 ZeadsDead 183411@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Although I see an 'Enable form persistence' checkbox under Form Settings for the new beta release of GF, I do not see any reference to this feature in the release notes or dev notes. No mention of it in the forums either.</p> <p>Although I click the checkbox, it becomes unclicked after I attempt to save my settings. i.e.: it doesn't work for me.</p> <p>Will this feature allow for the form user to save a page of a multipage? I am hooppppiiinnggg so!! If it is, can you provide guidance on whether:</p> <p>- does user have to click 'next' for the form to save? or will you integrate a 'save now' button?</p> <p>- will the form values erase themselves if user attempts to submit the form with an incorrect field or required field missing? (currently a bug of the data-persistance-addon)</p> <p>- i know GF does not give ETAs but I am curious to know if it works now but maybe broken for me? or it will be included in an upcoming release?</p> <p>- i have so many other questions but i guess ill have to wait for official announcement... (ie: will user have to be signed in?... does this only work on multipage forms?... does data save in WP database or as a cookie user's comp?)</p> <p>i am very excited for this feature as you can probably tell.</p> <p>thanks! ben </p>
