I was wondering why my merge field drop down stopped working until I found your post. I just wanted to confirm I can also duplicate this same behavior on two sites I am working on right now. I changed the name field back to "normal" for now pending a resolution. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/notification-merge-tags-broken-with-name-field-set-to-extended-and-required#post-242840 Wed, 08 May 2013 12:20:02 +0000 Richard Vav 242840@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I can reproduce this as well on my localhost setup, it also looks like it is breaking the tooltip icons as well <a href="http://i.imgur.com/zDATqzu.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/zDATqzu.png</a></p> <p>Edit: Ignore the icons thing I forgot to disable a plugin I had been testing for another thread.</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Richard<br /> --<br /> Just another member of the community helping out where I can </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/notification-merge-tags-broken-with-name-field-set-to-extended-and-required#post-242828 Wed, 08 May 2013 12:08:29 +0000 sokratesagogo 242828@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi I reproduced the behaviour on two separately hosted sites, with the 2013 theme and GF as the only active plugin, as follows:</p> <p>1) Create a new form with any name/description<br /> 2) Add a "name" field from the Advanced fields<br /> 3) Check merge-tags dropdown in notifications - all OK<br /> 4) Change Name format to "Extended" - repeat step 3 - all OK<br /> 5) Make name field required - repeat step 3 - merge-tag dropdowns broken<br /> 6) Change Name format to Normal - repeat step 3 - still broken.</p> <p>Can you reproduce this? </p>
