a summary form that can be edited

  1. Curious to know if one can build a summary form that is editable by the user prior to the user hitting the final submit button

    1) I saw and read some of the links summary forms

    2) but can the summary form be edited prior to submission?

    Thanks...

  3. hi dave

    thanks for the speedy reply

    I looked at that last night and I am game to try it

    This will give me the Summary Page ....is that correct?

    Will it be one that can be edited as well....for example, if they spelled their name wrong?

    They can go back and edit details as far as I know. Hope it works out well.

  5. one more question please

    does all this involve these "merge tags"? Or is there an easy tutorial to understand what the "merge tag" will do for me?

    thanks again

    I am not sure what you mean by your question. Merge tags are how you access the submitted data to display it in this tutorial.

    Here is our documentation on Merge Tags:

  7. Ok....this is to my point earlier (from prior post this morning) about the usefulness of the information

    I can see the tutorial on the merge tags but it is of little usefulness to the novice user (myself) as there are no examples of where this would go or how would I use it and what it would do for me

    Based upon the tutorial (the link you sent over), you tell me what the tags do; I want to know where to put them and how that would effect my form

    Merge tags are ways to quickly access data that is submitted to your form. If you had a single input field that was the first field in your form called First Field the merge tag would most likely be {First Field:1}

    Does that help a bit more?

  9. I know that they are put in emails and stuff to access that data so that when the email goes out it will have the persons name but I would just be guessing as I have never worked with them before; unsure where I would start, but I will research

    I'd like to create a question type in gravity forms where I have a student rank 10 items in order of importance. Is there a structure For example:

    Cat 1
    Dog2
    Bird 3

    etc....

    Thanks!

  11. @ringford, please create a new topic in the Feature Requests forum as I can't see how your request is related to the topic being discussed here. And there is currently no way I know of to have a field like that. However, it's a good feature request and would appreciate it if you could post it here:

    Thank you.
