There is no trick to enabling validation, but it's possible the validation routine may need to be revised to prevent certain types of invalid email addresses.</p> <p>The validation will not verify if an email address exists: it is designed only to ensure the data that is entered looks like an email address. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/validation-1#post-71472 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 12:15:58 +0000 aarcro 71472@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>What is "Normal validation"? It sure doesn't ensure that an email field contains an email address as my pentesters have filled the database with form submissions including non-valid email addresses.</p> <p>Is there some trick to enabling validation? Really shouldn't have to write a gform_validation hook to validate an email address. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/validation-1#post-48007 Wed, 01 Feb 2012 13:51:42 +0000 Chris Hajer 48007@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Normal validation is built in, and should not require any hoops with gform functions. Please post a link to your site if you are currently using Gravity Forms so we can see what you're talking about.</p> <p>You can do what you describe with a little bit of code in your theme's functions.php to show conditional confirmation pages.</p> <p>Because Gravity Forms is a WordPress plugin, it's installed in the wp-content/plugins folder, not cgi-bin. You can try it as it's installed, but if your host prevents this normal configuration, you will need to find another host to be able to use Gravity Forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/validation-1#post-47897 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 03:05:24 +0000 carltown 47897@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>1.. I'm using studiopress and notice regular validation on forms there using HTML forms and the normal Javascript for validation doesn't work too well - and looks like you're supposed to use Gravity with gform functions with these themes. Right? Just minimum validation for me now - name field is non-blank and email is right format. That should work with gform- right?<br /> 2. Can a form branch for the return page based on whether a checkbox is checked? For example, I want to send free white papers. If they check that, If checked, I want to branch to a page to download the paper. Otherwise, all will branch.<br /> 3. My host requires me to use their form processor in my cgi-bin to provide good security. Can I still do that with Gravity? </p>
