Form disabled after one submission. Local install

  1. I'm wondering if there's something that is limiting the amount of submissions I can add to my site. I'm planning on using this for a contact form and need this to be reusable by clients.

    Is there something I'm missing that's limiting it to one submission per domain or other such features?

    The form is called through the PHP tag and not through the shortcode.

  2. I'm not entirely sure what you are asking because of the terminology you are using. Submissions aren't added to your site, Forms are added to your site and Forms create entries. There are no entry limits with Gravity Forms. A form can receive as many entries as your database can handle.

    The only way a form limits entries is if you are using the Limit Entries option in the Form Settings for a form which allows you to limit how many entries a form can receive for things like contests, etc.

  3. Hey Carl,

    I have a contact form on a site I'm doing for a client (first time I'm using the plugin). It's called via the PHP (so if you have a link that explains the variables that would be awesome). The problem is when you submit the form, it displays a thank you message. That thank you message never went away in the browser I was in after page refreshes, which would be nice if the user eventually wanted to submit again. Secondly, the message was displayed in other browsers on my computer. And after that the contact form was tested on my co-worker's computer and the thank you message was still displayed there.

    I'm not sure what's happening with it. (it's localhost [or well, vhosted locally at a custom 'domain' of wp.rj incase that's pertinent]), but I've got to figure out what's wrong with is so I can actually send it to the client. There is no limit (it's blank, i could enter a number and remove it if you think that would help).

  4. Thats not normal behavior and not one that anyone has ever reported encountering.

    The Thank You message isn't displayed unless the form is submitted. It sounds like you have a caching issue going on. Something on your site cached the page with the Thank You message present and it's displaying a cached version of that page.

    Do you have any caching plugins running or any kind of server based caching?

  5. It was done on multiple computers. So I'm thinking it's not a cache issue… I'll review the code again.

  6. Could it have to do with this Chrome browser error:
    Uncaught ReferenceError: gf_apply_rules is not defined.

  7. I wasn't referring to browser cache, I was referring to caching running on the WordPress site itself such as WP Super Cache, server side caching, etc. That is the only way the form confirmation page would be displayed automatically across multiple browsers and computers.

    Can you post a link to the page so we can see this happening?
