    I mentioned yesterday - I'm totally new to wordpress - I've worked in joomla for about 3 years.

    I'm trying to understand where the data from the form will be stored.

    Do the add-ons contain additional help or detail in analyzing the data?

    thanks.

    The data for the form is stored in the database that your WordPress site is setup to use. When you install WordPress you give it access to a database to create and store WordPress related data. Gravity Forms creates tables in this database and stores all of it's entry data there. It is then accessible via the WordPress admin.

    I'm not sure what you mean as far as add-ons containing additional help or detail in analyzing the data. The add-ons we currently have allow you to integrate your forms with 3rd party services. So for example, when a contact us form is submitted the user can also be added to your MailChimp mailing list for marketing purposes.

    Hi Carl, Thanks, overall its shaping up to be a very nice component! Thanks.

    PLEASE if you could help with a couple quick questions:

    the css of the site is putting in horrible line rules under every item in the layout.

    The manual says:

    CSS Class Name
    Enter the CSS class name you would like to use in order to override the default styles for this form.

    Is there some included css class so a basic appearance is achieved out of the box, but that we can override the site theme? It looks dreadful - and this is such a rush project ...

    ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!

    also we bought the version -but the install says to buy support....(i do have installed on the staging website and the live site - that may be the prob?)

    the link is in the process of being posted - so I can post that if you need to see beyond my description. thanks
