Add cancel button?

  1. I have created a form in wordpress using the gravity forms plugin.

    On my main pages i have created a menu item called signup, when people click it they toggle the signup form sliding down.
    I want to create a Cancel button only for this form, i tried adding the button in the gform_submit_button hook.

    But then when i click it, it acts like a submit button.

    How do i do this? is it even possible?

  2. Hide the submit button with conditional logic (on the form settings) and make the condition something that can never be true, then add an HTML field to your form and insert the HTML for the cancel button.

    Or, hide the submit button with CSS and still do the same thing with the cancel button code in an HTML field.

  3. I want both the cancel and submit button.

    is this possible in this way ?

  4. Just don't hide the submit button in that case. Add an HTML field to your form and add the code for a cancel button there.

  10. Hello Chris,

    Is it possible to see the HTML markup of the cancel button please? I'm after similar functionality, but can't figure out the correct HTML for the cancel button.

    Many thanks, Dasha

  11. I might have figured this out, in case it might help some one:
    <input type="reset" class="button gform_button" value="Cancel" tabindex="20"> or whatever tabindex you want to use.

    Thanks, Dasha

  12. Actually,

    I haven't figure out how to add a cancel button that would take you to a custom URL. Any advice would be hugely appreciated.

    Many thanks, Dasha

    Something like this might work for you:

    <button onclick="window.location.href='b.php'">Click me</button>
