Conformation page not working

    My thank you page is not working with the query string, I have it set to go to http://50realestateagents.com/thank-you.php and I used the string query builder ie: name={Name (First):21.3} but when it goes to the page it says that it can not be found..

    It only does it when the actual query string is attached... I can go to

    http://50realestateagents.com/thank-you.php?name=

    but as soon as it enters something

    http://50realestateagents.com/thank-you.php?name=john
    (Does not work?)

  2. Name is a reserved querystring parameter in WordPress. You can't use Name=John, this is why you are getting the 404. WordPress isn't allowing you to use it. You will have to use something else like FirstName= or anything but Name=.

    It adds a
    #gf_1 to the end of the query string, do I need that?

  5. That is something is doing to anchor the page to the form, but because you are redirecting to another page it isn't necessary but it won't hurt anything.

  8. I'm not able to replicate this issue. If you send a WordPress admin login to us via our Contact Us form and let us know which form is doing this we can look at your form settings and determine what is going on.

  9. The BR tag that was appearing was due to a carriage return in the query string builder field so it was automatically adding a < br > tag. The #gf_1 was automatically be added because it was a multi-page form and it uses that to anchor to the form and error messages on page refresh.

    I have corrected the < br > issue by removing the extra carriage return in the data but the #gf_1 cannot be resolved until we release an update and we will also be making it so carriage returns don't cause the < br > issue.
