How to duplicate a PayPal form??

  1. Hi there,
    I have created a PayPal form for a wine site that allows users to sign up and pay for a Wine Club (subscription form) Membership.

    I want to DUPLICATE that form, keep the same fields, etc. but change it to a PURCHASE form.

    MUST I recreate the form from scratch?

    I'd like to just duplicate the form I spent SO MUCH TIME creating and then edit it for my needs.

    Thanks!

  2. You can Duplicate the form, if you click on the Forms or Edit Forms where you get your list of available forms. Hover over one of them and you will see options below the name, one of them is duplicate. This should be what you are looking for.

  4. It should look like this:

    Once you Duplicate your form, then you can setup a new PayPal feed for the new form that has all of the same fields as the other.

  5. OK, THANK YOU...however, I am now running into another problem. I duplicated my form, and within that form, I created a Product. Then I duplicated that Product Field.

    I was able to successfully edit that duplicated Product Field, but then the form stopped working.

    The duplicated fields will not let me Edit; they won't open....when I duplicate, I get two-three copies of that duplicated field.

    I have GF 1.6.1; using it in WordPress; Firefox 8.

    thank you

  6. You can duplicate the form, but what you may be referring to is the PayPal Feed that you setup when you use the PayPal Add-On.

    That can't currently be duplicated, primarily because it's tied to a form and a form can't have multiple PayPal Feeds associated with it right now.

    So while you can duplicate a form you integrate with PayPal, you'd then have to create the PayPal feed for that newly duplicated form.
