I was about to see if it was theme or plugin conflict, but noticed that when I just typed a few words, they would show up. It was only when I right clicked paste that they would vanish on update form. What finally fixed it for me was when I was copying the HTML from Dreamweaver into the description field, I needed to use CTL+V instead of right click paste. Whenever I would right click paste, the code would be gone on update. But with CTL+V the code stuck, and worked. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/trying-to-add-a-paragraph-disclaimer-to-my-form#post-31963 Sun, 07 Aug 2011 14:23:30 +0000 Chris Hajer 31963@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I think this might be the source of your problem:<br /> <strong>"After I save the form. The text disappears."</strong></p> <p>Are you saying that you type the text in the description field of a section break, but when you save it and go to re-edit it (or view it) it's gone? If that's the case, you probably have a plugin conflict. Have you followed all the instructions here on testing for a plugin conflict?</p> <p><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>I was able to create a form similar to yours without a problem. I used a section break, put my HTML in the description (The Yahoo Terms), added a CSS ready class of <strong>gf_scroll_text</strong> so it's contained to a smaller space, then conditionally hid the submit button based on your acceptance of the terms.</p> <p><a href="http://gravity.chrishajer.com/terms-of-service/" rel="nofollow">http://gravity.chrishajer.com/terms-of-service/</a></p> <p>If you're entering text into the description but it will not save, you have either a plugin or theme conflict. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/trying-to-add-a-paragraph-disclaimer-to-my-form#post-31962 Sun, 07 Aug 2011 13:20:29 +0000 mamuka 31962@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Chris here is URL to the form I just put up in menu called TOS.<br /> <a href="http://credmeds.com/tos-sample/" rel="nofollow">http://credmeds.com/tos-sample/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/trying-to-add-a-paragraph-disclaimer-to-my-form#post-31916 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 13:24:37 +0000 Chris Hajer 31916@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@mamuka, only administrators on your site can view forms using the preview link.

The text of your disclaimer does not appear in the source of the page either.</p> <pre><code>&lt;li id=&#39;field_1_12&#39; class=&#39;gfield gsection&#39; &gt; &lt;h2 class=&#39;gsection_title&#39;&gt;Attention! &lt;/h2&gt; &lt;/li&gt;</code></pre> <p>There should be a <strong>gsection_description</strong> div in there, but there is not.</p> <p>Can you see the disclaimer text if you preview the form (which will eliminate conflicts with your theme)? If not, then the section break may not be set up correctly. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/trying-to-add-a-paragraph-disclaimer-to-my-form#post-30073 Fri, 15 Jul 2011 00:11:56 +0000 Justin Alvarez 30073@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I did everything like you said.
