Thank you for posting it. Gravity Forms is always involving to include best practices, and we'll be sure to consider this in the future. Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/h2-vs-h3#post-41669 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 15:44:48 +0000 clicknathan 41669@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks Carl &amp; Chris.</p> <p>In the past, an h3 has worked just fine for me as I went along with what I'm starting to think is an outdated mode of thinking:</p> <p>h1 - Company Name / Website name / Logo<br /> h2 - Page title<br /> h3 - This is the then fine for a form heading</p> <p>But with HTML5-talk promoting a different format of organizing page content, something more like :</p> <p>hgroup<br /> h1 - company/website name / logo<br /> h2 - tagline<br /> /hgroup<br /> hgroup<br /> h1 - page title<br /> /hgroup<br /> form<br /> h2 - form title<br /> /form</p> <p>With that in mind, I think that having the option to change this is pretty key, particularly in keeping your pages relevant. I imagine a lot of people aren't asking for it because they aren't aware of the importance / validity of having (or in this case, not having), meaningful heading tags. I believe that TwentyEleven itself even outputs h1 tags as the page title, so a lot of people using Gravity Forms are probably ending up with h3s under h2s.</p> <p>@Chris - that idea works, except that it removes certain dynamic abilities, like Confirmations that show text instead of do page redirects...so my original title / description (ie, the one I'd enter in WordPress itself vs. Gravity Forms) would still be showing up after the form was submitted.</p> <p>Anyway, love GF and that's just a suggestion. It could probably just be a setting in the Form Settings area, or perhaps even better, in the WP Page / Post Editor, where you get to choose if you show the description / title at all: "Use which heading tag: h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, fieldset legend?" </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/h2-vs-h3#post-41610 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 20:17:55 +0000 Chris Hajer 41610@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You could opt to NOT display the form title, then include your own markup with the title wrapped in an H2. I've done that in the past when I needed a different style or heading hierarchy for the form title. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/h2-vs-h3#post-41577 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:53:34 +0000 Carl Hancock 41577@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Currently there is not. The output can't be customized as far as that goes. It may be something we could add as a hook in a future release. It's never been requested so I don't see it as something we would add as an option in the UI. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/h2-vs-h3#post-41573 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:45:04 +0000 clicknathan 41573@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Does anyone know if there's a way to change the Title of a form from an H3 tag to an H2? </p>
