No duplicates across multiple forms

    Hi, I have 6 submission forms, and I need to limit one entry per one e-mail address for all the forms on the site. This means that I would turn on "No duplicates" for the "E-mail" field, but what I would get, is that a user could theoretically submit one listing on each form, giving him the ability to submit 6 forms with a single e-mail address.

    Is there a way to prevent a duplication of any given field across multiple forms. In a way, that would mean that you could not enter a particular e-mail address twice on any form on the site.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks
    Zelimir

    The only way you could do this would be to write your own PHP to check against the entries table inside of our gform_validation hook. There is no built-in way to do it. http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation
