Multi-Site Error

  1. Wordpress 1.5.2 and GF 1.7.6 on GoDadday shared....

    No matter if I activate via the network admin or on a specific site I get the error "There was an issue creating your form" when trying to create a form. I opened up PHPMyAdmin and do not see any tables that would relate to GF. Do you know of a reason I would get this error and am I correct in thinking that the lack of DB tables relates?

    I'm assuming you mean WordPress 3.5.2. Can you go to Forms -> Settings and append &setup to the URL and click enter. Check for tables that say _rg_ in them, as those are Gravity Forms related database tables. Make sure your database has full permissions (write/read/update/delete)

  3. Woops, yep 3.5.2. It's been a long frustrating day...thanks for the quick reply!

    Anyway, what you suggested didn't do the trick so I've been digging around in the code and printed up this error during the setup process. Now if I can just figure out how to fix it, obviously once I do it will fix my issue.

    $charset_collate = DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE latin1_general_ci

    $wpdb->last_error = COLLATION 'latin1_general_ci' is not valid for CHARACTER SET 'utf8'

  4. That was it! I got the DB converted and changed the collation setting in wp-congfig. Good to go now.
