My Submit Button is missing?

  1. I just setup a new form. In the "Preview" section of the plugin the submit button is there. when I place the form in a website the button is gone?

    Here is the link to the page:

  2. your gforms.css file has a negative margin applied to the footer div on line 97. If you remove that, the button shows. I'm sure the negative margin is hiding the button behind the textarea.

  4. I'm also missing the submit button:
    the below line is what I'm seeing, the style="display:none" isn't generated from the CSS, so where else is this at... possible the form_display.php? what line would this be one?

    <input type="submit" id="gform_submit_button_2" class="button gform_button" value="Submit" tabindex="92" style="display: none; ">

  5. Do you have conditional logic applied to your submit button in the form settings? That would explain the button being hidden and having the inline style applied. Also, it would be helpful if you could share a URL to your form, it's difficult to debug a display issue that I can't see.

  6. Sorry about not posting the link... the directory was password protected... but here it is.

    And you where right... I did have a conditional added to the form setting (header), not sure what I was thinking.

    Thanks for the help!!!

    I replaced section breaks with page breaks and it made my Submit Button go missing and my next and previous buttons loose their formatting:
    http://sheilabergman.net/referrals/referral-process

    I discovered this by making a form with no fields, exported the xml and inserted the form fields from my broken form. The form was still broke.

    I deleted the page breaks and the submit button reappeared and the next and previous formatting came back. Some conditional logic fields got mucked up and needed resetting though. Working form with section breaks put back in:
    http://sheilabergman.net/referrals/main-referral-form

    I really would like to use page breaks on this form. Any thoughts on what's going on?

    Thanks!

  9. @sheilabergman,

    This is a theme style issue. Your buttons haven't "lost" any formatting because the forms really don't define any. What you're referring to are the default browser styles which vary from browser to browser. You theme is setting a specific button style (style.css line 1436) and that's what you're seeing. If you disable that rule, you'll see that the default browser styles kick in again.

    As far as not seeing the submit button, it appears that you've set up your conditional logic incorrectly somewhere because the fields on the second page are completely hidden. You probably need to revisit the form setup and make sure that's correct. Once you've got that ironed out, I'm sure the button will display properly.

    Similar problem - form submit has display:none - no conditional logic on the form.

    I'd like to show you the form but it's on a dev server and you'd need to modify your host file (PC) to see it - I can give that information to you in PM/email.

    Tried multiple browsers, etc. other forms work - this one just doesn't have a submit button.

  12. @cfdynamics, please start a new topic for your issue. It's likely unrelated and I would like to address it separately. Once you do that, we will delete these two posts. Thanks
