Gravity Forms - Placeholders add-on You can download it here: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/</a> </p> <p>To use, just add "gplaceholder" the the CSS Class Name in the Advanced option for each field you want the placeholder text to appear. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/wordpress-widget-text-inside-field#post-75511 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 12:49:56 +0000 Chris Hajer 75511@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>For your second question, conditional logic is built in to Gravity Forms. It does not work strictly like you described it (it requires a drop down, check box or radio button to reveal more input fields) but you can accomplish what you need.</p> <p>Here is a description of the conditional logic feature:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityforms.com/features/conditional-logic/" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityforms.com/features/conditional-logic/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/wordpress-widget-text-inside-field#post-75510 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 12:47:35 +0000 Chris Hajer 75510@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@bczubiak, for your first question, placeholder text is not yet included in Gravity Forms. It's a feature of HTML5. For now, you can add the functionality in a couple different ways:</p> <p><a href="http://www.wduffy.co.uk/jLabel/" rel="nofollow">http://www.wduffy.co.uk/jLabel/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/heres-how-to-add-placeholder-functionality-which-works-with-ajax-validation" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/heres-how-to-add-placeholder-functionality-which-works-with-ajax-validation</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/clearing-default-form-field-values-with-jquery/" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/clearing-default-form-field-values-with-jquery/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/wordpress-widget-text-inside-field#post-75508 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 12:44:56 +0000 Chris Hajer 75508@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@taylorr, please begin a new topic for each of your individual issues.

The user would click on the field with the name in the field and then the name would go away they'd be able to add their information. You can call it placeholder text. I'd prefer to have just one form, and use the widget option for the sidebar.</p> <p>Also, how do i do a conditional, if the user fills in the last field, then automagically there are more questions that can be asked. This would all be part of the same form, but only show the first part of the form fields and when the user gets further down the form there are additional fields to fill out. </p>
