Is that very complicated to do being not a programmer. I'll have to hire my guy again. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/time-delay-after-submitting-form#post-67116 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 16:26:58 +0000 David Peralty 67116@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Right next to the required checkbox is No Duplicates. Check that off for a single field and they won't be able to submit the same entry multiple times. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/time-delay-after-submitting-form#post-67115 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 16:22:10 +0000 servent1 67115@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>David,</p> <p>Could you please explain "make one field a unique entries only?" I have required fields but I don't think that is what you mean. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/time-delay-after-submitting-form#post-67114 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 16:18:59 +0000 David Peralty 67114@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>There are so many potential factors that it is usually hard to narrow it down. What I usually suggest is to make one field a unique entries only, then they can't submit multiple times. Or find a JS call that can disable the submit button after the first press. Either way, it is easier than hunting down the delay.</p> <p>If you want to hunt down the delay, and are experiencing it yourself, I would suggest looking through our theme and plugin conflict instructions first:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Testing_for_a_Theme/Plugin_Conflict" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Testing_for_a_Theme/Plugin_Conflict</a></p> <p>And maybe contacting your host for log details or to see if they can bump up the available memory for PHP. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/time-delay-after-submitting-form#post-67112 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 16:13:35 +0000 servent1 67112@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>My form seems to delay enough where my visitors are clicking multiple times on the button. Not sure if its a server issue, or other programming issue. Could having a lot of submissions in the database slow the time processing down? I have the Zoho addon (3rd party app) don't know if that's doing it? </p>
