How Do I Get Form To Reload?

    Hi,
    I intend to use a form for people to type in questions while listening to a teleseminar.
    I would like them to be able to type in more than one question if they would like to - in other words - after they hit submit, they should be able to see the form again to type in a new question.
    I can't figure out how to do this - because it seems that after the form is submitted, it just gives the 'thank you' message, and even if refresh is hit, the form doesn't reload.
    How do I do this?
    Thanks,
    Kenny
    p.s. this is for a post in a membership site - so I'm not going to post a url

  2. If you use the standard text confirmation, it does replace the form when it loads. You can always use a custom confirmation page/URL that displays a confirmation message, then redirects you back to the original form page after a few seconds.

    Thanks, Kevin.
    I plan on having the call 'streaming' via webcast technology on the same page. So i don't want my users to have to reload the page - as it would disrupt the audio.
    Is there a way to do this so that they can reload the form without having to reload the page?
    Thanks,
    Kenny

  4. The only way this MIGHT be possible is with the Gravity Forms v1.5 development release. You would have to install that development release.

    You would then embed your form with the shortcode with the AJAX option turned ON.

    Then in your form confirmation message text you would also include the form shortcode and display the form, again, on it's own confirmation text message.

    So the form would load as part of the thank you message and it would do so via AJAX so the page doesn't reload.

    I haven't tried or tested this so i'm not 100% sure if it will work as intended but you could give it a try.
