Are you able to consistently recreate this issue on this form? Also, are you able to recreate this issue on other forms or is it limited to just this form? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/impossible-to-update-or-save-form#post-16090 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 23:31:39 +0000 jfisher 16090@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Actually..the HTML block causes the save error as well. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/impossible-to-update-or-save-form#post-16088 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 23:12:05 +0000 jfisher 16088@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Just had the same exact issue.

And yes it is.</p> <p>Ok I found the error apparently in the new update you cant insert HTML in the form description like in previous versions... </p> <p>But I see now that there is a HTML field so I used that one it worked fine! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/impossible-to-update-or-save-form#post-11042 Tue, 12 Oct 2010 11:21:18 +0000 Carl Hancock 11042@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I think this is a mod_security firewall issue. Here is what you are going to have to do to determine if this is in fact the problem.</p> <p>- Create a New Form that consists of only a Single Line text field and a Paragraph text field.<br /> - Save the Form<br /> - Edit this new form and add another Single Line Text field<br /> - Save the Form</p> <p>If it works now we need to test a specific field type to determine if it is a mod_security issue.</p> <p>- Edit the same form from above<br /> - Add a Checkbox, Drop Down AND Multiple Choice field to your form.<br /> - Save the Form</p> <p>If it spins... then it is a mod_security firewall issue blocking the AJAX request.</p> <p>See this post for details:</p> <p><a href="http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/forms-not-updating-after-being-saved#post-10305" rel="nofollow">http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/forms-not-updating-after-being-saved#post-10305</a></p> <p>You will have to contact your host to adjust your mod_security settings, good web hosts will work with you on adjusting your settings as outlined in the above post from another user. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/impossible-to-update-or-save-form#post-11030 Mon, 11 Oct 2010 19:15:12 +0000 kr2spain 11030@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Whenever I try to save a form I keep getting this message:</p> <p>There was an error while saving your form, most likely caused by a plugin conflict.

Thanks</p> <p>PS Is not a theme conflict or plugin conflict because it was working some weeks ago perfectly. Plus I did disactivate and activate all plugins and the problem still persisted. Could it be that in the update of the new version of Gravity forms it was not correctly load to my ftp? </p> <p>Wordpress version: WordPress 3.0.1.<br /> Operating System : Linux<br /> Server : Apache/2<br /> MySQL Version : 5.1.48-community-log<br /> PHP Version : 5.2.14</p> <p>Gravity forms plugin version: 1.4.3.1 </p> <p>Just found out that the problem only shows when I duplicate a form and then try to save any changes. When I create a form from sratch I can save correctly the form... </p>
