How difficult would it be to customize the notification for the 30th entry? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/limit-user-input#post-186997 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 18:24:41 +0000 dmayer5 186997@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Chris, Awesome thank you! So I imported the code into my functions.php and changed the necessary components. The error message is showing up on "Enter Code" when I type in the wrong promotional code however it's still rejecting it if I enter the correct code. This website is hosted on a local hosting company server so I got that pathway from Duplicator settings panel. I set the file in the root folder just to test out the form /C:/ZPanel/hostdata/sco-oc/sco-oc_org/numbers.txt </p> <p>The only in the numbers.txt is 2013001</p> <p>Any suggestions?</p> <p>the form is on: <a href="http://www.sco-oc.org/stars" rel="nofollow">http://www.sco-oc.org/stars</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/limit-user-input#post-183047 Sun, 24 Mar 2013 14:16:59 +0000 Chris Hajer 183047@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can use gform_validation to check the entered code against your list of codes (or, maybe it is just one code). I provided some code to do that previously: <a href="http://pastebin.com/7ANQh6Rc" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/7ANQh6Rc</a></p> <p>It was discussed in depth here: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/database-look-up-validation" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/database-look-up-validation</a></p> <p><em>You could notify the 30th entry for the form that they were a winner, but it would require custom code, counting the number of entries so far and then changing the confirmation if the entry is the 30th.</em> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/limit-user-input#post-179857 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:35:59 +0000 dmayer5 179857@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I am creating another form for a Non-Profit that I volunteer for. They wanted me to create a contest where the person puts in their name, email, phone, and contest code. They wanted the 30th person to receive a message stating they won, but after working with GF's for the last year I don't think that will be possible. Anyways They only want the contestant to be entered into the contest once. I setup the Email and "code" field to not allow duplicate entries. I however wanted to go a step further and limit the user input for the codes. The promotion codes will be given out at an event so I was wondering if there was a way to setup the "code" field to only allow the codes that we created? </p>
