I have used some of the code from your sample code found here (<a href="http://pastie.org/1769048" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/1769048</a>) . What kind or response is the $is_valid variable looking for from the process_payment function? Is it looking for true/false? I currently am getting an error message no matter if the payment is valid or not.....its throwing an error either way. Any advise? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/validation-message-not-allowing-confirmationn-message#post-34859 Thu, 08 Sep 2011 16:18:20 +0000 Carl Hancock 34859@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm not sure I completely follow, the description is a little confusing. Can you provide a link to the form and give me step by step instructions on how to replicate it so I can see what you are talking about? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/validation-message-not-allowing-confirmationn-message#post-34845 Thu, 08 Sep 2011 15:06:57 +0000 BIGLIFE 34845@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am using the gf_validation_message function to change the main validation message. All is working except if I submit the form and it kicks back an error and thus the new message then when the info in question is corrected and the form is resubmitted the confirmation message does not appear and the error message remains. Any Ideas? </p>
