CSS Class Name Not Saving in Checkbox or Number Fields

Gravity Support Forums » Plugin Support » Gravity Forms

    I'm trying to set up a form with a checkbox for an item, and then a number field for the quantity of the item to the right of it.

    From reading this post:

    http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/can-gf-forms-do-this

    it seems like all I should have to do is put "gf_inline" in the CSS Class Name field on the Advanced Tab. However, when I do so, it doesn't save the change when I update the form.

    Either "gf_inline" isn't valid anymore (it's not currently shown on the CSS Ready Classes page, here: http://www.gravityhelp.com/css-ready-classes-for-gravity-forms/ ) or I'm missing something more obvious?

    Basically, what I'm trying to set up is something like:

    [ ] Item A Qty ___
    [ ] Item B Qty ___

    etc.

    This is for reordering medical supplies, so no need for a cart or pricing info, etc. They just need to generate a list of what supplies the customer needs.

    I haven't built out the form yet, because the method I linked above isn't working.

    Is the method still supposed to be valid?

    OK, it looks like gf_left_half and gf_right_half works.

    I'm guessing that gf_inline either isn't valid anymore or not valid for those particular fields, since it wasn't saving.

    gf_inline is still valid and included in the forms.css.

    Even if it were NOT valid, you could write whatever you want in the CSS Class Name on the advanced tab. That field does no validation and the form builder is not aware of what you're typing in there. You could put "brianb_inline" and that class would be output with the form fields when the form is rendered. If you have no corresponding CSS rules, it won't have any affect on layout.

    If it was not saving with gf_inline there, you have something else going on in your form builder.

    Are you copying and pasting it in? Have you tried manually typing the class name in and saving?

    Is there more information available on this issue ? I am experiencing the same problem, whatever I type in that field is not saved when updating my form.

    thanks

    I cannot replicate this issue locally so it could be something specific with your setup. The only time this seems to have been an issue is when people paste into the field, instead of typing - and even that isn't widespread.

    You could try testing for theme/plugin conflicts:

    The copy paste issue was causing this problem. When typing it works.

    Thanks
