When I added the Credit Card field to one of my forms (I need to store CC info in a database - a "club" style future purchase), I see the error message "This page is unsecured. Do not enter a real credit card number. Use this field only for testing purposes."
What would I need to do to secure the page and make the CC field usable?
The Authorize.Net and PayPal Pro add-ons enable the Credit Card Field in Gravity Forms. This field appears in the Pricing Fields toolbox of the Form Editor. This is a new field type that makes it easy to capture credit card information. It includes integrated card type detection so the user does not have to pick which type of card he is using and it also has built in validation to validate that the card format is correct.
This field does not actually store the Credit Card data. It is available as part of the initial form submission strictly as part of integration with the Authorize.Net Add-On and other payment gateway add-ons. This data will not be stored as part of the form entry and is not retained by your site, server, or database.
If you Preview or view your form on a page that is not secure, it will be obvious, both to you and your users if you do not properly secure the page. If the page is unsecured the Credit Card Field will be highlighted with a red warning. This warning will not be displayed if the page displaying the form is loaded via https with a valid SSL certificate.
Contact your web host if you need assistance purchasing and configuring an SSL certificate.
If you need assistance configuring your WordPress site to work with SSL we recommend the WordPress HTTPS (SSL) Plugin which you can find here:
