None of my javascript is working

    I am having several issues. The biggest one is that none of the javascript is working for the plugin on one of my forms. When I preview the form everything works fine, but if I embed it into a page then it stops working. in the console i get the error
    'Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'datepicker'
    and a bunch of other errors depending on what I click on. The javascript obviously isn't being loaded because of the errors, but I have no idea how to fix it.

    On another form the entire thing is hidden by default and I have to add the css 'visible:inherit !important' to get it to show up.

    In both forms I am using conditional logic. Is that what is causing the problems?

    I really need to get this error fixed so that I can finish the website.

    Can you link your form so we can take a look?

    On the first option it is supposed to show a set of checkboxes depending on which option you choose.

    Your error is related to the fact that you have 2 JQuery calls, one is 1.6 in the header and the other is 1.7.2 in the footer. You should only have one and it should be in the header and it should be the 1.7.2 version.

  5. The issue is with your theme. The form isn't showing when there is conditional logic because of JavaScript errors. At the top of your source you are including an old version of jQuery and in the footer after all of your scripts you are including a newer version.

    Your goal here would be to get rid of the jQuery reference in the footer, and make sure your jQuery reference in the head is the latest version.

    You can test for theme/plugin conflicts by following the instructions here:

    It looks like it is gravity forms that is trying to load the older version of jQuery, I am right?

  7. That is incorrect, we enqueue and load jQuery when necessary and use the version that ships with WordPress, as that is the correct way to do so. This screenshot shows it's coming from a google hosted resource.

    Does your form with conditional logic show and function in the the formbuilder preview?

    I deleted the jQuery being loaded in the footer and now it seems to be working. Everything worked in the preview of the form. I guess wordpress is still loading an older version of jQuery

  9. Gravity Forms does not output an older version of jQuery, as I said above. Here is a screenshot of my dev site running the default Twenty Eleven theme and Gravity Forms. You will see it indeed is loading the latest version that is included with WordPress.
