Glad you found a solution which works for you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-202973 Tue, 09 Apr 2013 20:16:09 +0000 electricscribe 202973@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I finally was able to achieve this using the GF Directory Add-On. I didn't see it mentioned in this thread. It will create a table of entries for a form that belong to the logged in user. You can then view the entry. If the useredit feature is enabled, a link is displayed at the bottom of the display to edit the entry, which then re-displays that entry populated in the form with an update button at the bottom. I did have to fix one problem (one line) that incorrectly had === instead of ==.</p> <p>It isn't the prettiest system, but I finally got it to work (crossing fingers for not jinxing it now). </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-202933 Tue, 09 Apr 2013 18:28:23 +0000 stewartwill 202933@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>For what it's worth, I'd like a front end editor too!</p> <p>Cheers </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-194468 Tue, 02 Apr 2013 12:41:15 +0000 David Peralty 194468@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>As you have found, it is important to us, but our resources have been focused on the add-ons we already have and some smaller ones with vocal communities of people wanting to have them created. We are a small company, with less than ten people, including support, design, management, and so we can only develop so many new pieces so fast. We've made changes in 1.7 that will hopefully help make front-end editing easier to develop, but we haven't got there yet. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-194462 Tue, 02 Apr 2013 12:38:18 +0000 batterystudios 194462@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <blockquote><p> Chris Hajer<br /> Administrator<br /> Editing entries from the front end is being considered for the 1.7 release. <u>It's been discussed and we realize there is a desire and a need for it.</u></p> <p>Posted 1 year ago on Wednesday December 21, 2011 </p></blockquote> <blockquote><p> Carl Hancock<br /> Administrator<br /> <u>We do plan on implementing this functionality. </u>.... <u> this is high on our list and we plan on doing some really cool stuff as far as this goes.</u></p> <p>Posted 1 year ago on Thursday February 9, 2012 </p></blockquote> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-194456 Tue, 02 Apr 2013 12:34:16 +0000 batterystudios 194456@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks for the update, Chris. That is disappointing news, to say the least.</p> <p>As I dive into development to add/fix this much needed feature myself (and hoping I don't have to start hacking plugin code to do so), would you be willing to please satisfy my (our) curiosity as to why this is not a high priority for your development team?</p> <p>To me, this is the only piece keeping your product from being the best plugin in it's class, on all counts! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-193569 Mon, 01 Apr 2013 21:24:23 +0000 Chris Hajer 193569@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>No functionality like this is currently in development for Gravity Forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-193420 Mon, 01 Apr 2013 18:53:57 +0000 batterystudios 193420@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Developer +1 here</p> <p>I am aware of the <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/gravity-forms-update-post" rel="nofollow">3rd party plugin by p51 labs</a>, but it does not appear that it is being actively supported (the author does not reply to emails or the forums) and a huge missing feature is support for Image / File replacement/removal for files uploaded with GF.</p> <p>There is another <a href="https://bitbucket.org/jupitercow/gravity-forms-update-post/overview" rel="nofollow">3rd party developer working on this</a>, but their work is far from complete as well.</p> <p>Please advise if you are still working towards this functionality. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-82477 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 11:37:22 +0000 julieconnect 82477@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>+ 1<br /> This is exactly what I miss now. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-form-for-editing-an-entry#post-75050 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 22:14:03 +0000 successfulgeek 75050@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I just wanted to put in my support for User Editing submissions as well.
