Sounds like you have a JavaScript or jQuery error. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/read-only-fields-1#post-78234 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 22:40:08 +0000 kayrum 78234@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi David</p> <p>Your function works great when using in a simple form but, when included in the functions.php on a multi page form it hides the whole form (page is blank) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/read-only-fields-1#post-51502 Tue, 06 Mar 2012 17:04:42 +0000 David Smith 51502@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi mgyura,</p> <p>Give this a shot:</p> <p><a href="http://pastie.org/3536412" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/3536412</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/read-only-fields-1#post-50967 Wed, 29 Feb 2012 20:39:07 +0000 mgyura 50967@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>David,<br /> Thank you for the script, it works great. The only issue is if the the form isn't valid, and throws up a validation error message, the field become writable again. </p> <p>Any ideas how I can stop this from happening? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/read-only-fields-1#post-35914 Wed, 21 Sep 2011 18:09:12 +0000 David Smith 35914@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Tony,</p> <p>Here is a code snippet that will make any <strong>input</strong> field read only. Just added the class "readonly" to the settings for that field.</p> <p>You should paste this code in your theme's functions.php file:</p> <p><a href="http://pastie.org/2570860" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/2570860</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/read-only-fields-1#post-35905 Wed, 21 Sep 2011 17:28:37 +0000 tonyallsopp 35905@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Can any please please please guide me as to how to set a field (or multiple fields) to be read only? I've read a couple of posts on here where you've directed people to a form post on stackoverflow.com (<a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1362153/how-can-i-use-jquery-to-make-an-input-readonly)" rel="nofollow">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1362153/how-can-i-use-jquery-to-make-an-input-readonly)</a>, but I can't figure out how or where to put the couple of little code snippets they suggest.<br /> It would be great long-term if GF could add a simple check-box option to each field, where you could specify a field to be read only, but short-term, is there any chance of a little bit more help here? I'm sure there would be many other (non-coding) people out there that would find this helpful as well.<br /> Many, many thanks in advance,<br /> Tony </p>
