    I'm having this same issue. I'm trying to add an HTML block in the form, but when saving the form, the Content doesn't save? It doesn't display when previewed either.

  4. @twistystraws See my comment above. Add HTML to where? What type of Field? Not all Fields support HTML being input into them. They strip it out by default. Some fields do support HTML. It depends on what field you are using. If you can provide more details we can go from there.

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what it's for? I've built a form, using standard fields. I have a tick box that requires a tick to be placed in it, to indicate that our T&C's have been read. Prior to that, I want an HTML block that contains a link to the T&C's.

    The HTML is
    '<p>Please confirm you have read our

    terms and conditions
    .</p>'

    Which I place in the content box. When I save the form, it doesn't save, or show in the preview.

  6. I also am seeing this issue, when I add a HTML block from the standard fields box, and then I add my HTML code into the content area, and save my form... it is stripping away all the HTML code and just leaving me with the plain text. As a work around for now, I'm going to place my HTML directly in my database, but hopefully a fix will be found soon :)

  7. @twistystraws If you are running Gravity Forms v1.5 you can place HTML in the choice name of a checkbox. So you can place it directly in the checkbox item name itself. Previous versions didn't allow HTML in the checkbox fields. 1.5 enables it on checkboxes and radio buttons.

    @j007pace The HTML block should not be stripping HTML. It most certainly should be allowing it. This isn't a known bug and hasn't been reported which leads me to believe it's something specific to your site (ex. plugin conflict). If you send us a WordPress admin login for this site via our Contact Us form i'd be glad to take a look and see what is going on.
