Post Title stops save on beta 1.6

  1. I have been unable to get posts to save when I include the Post Title field. I have been able to include all (at least I think I've tried them all) the other fields and have the form save. Even if the only field I have in the form is the post title field it won't save and gives a warning to contact support.

    I'm on 1.6 beta 1 WordPress 3.2.1 with no plugins running (at least while testing). Even with debug set to true I don't see output outside of the message to contact support

  2. I'm unable to reproduce this bug on my local site. See this screenshot which shows a form with a Post Title field and a Post Body field on it just after it's saved: http://i.imgur.com/buL9A.png

    Let me know if you can try this on another site, or do some additional debugging such as checking for possible theme and plugin conflicts.

  3. I'm going to tackle tracking this down now.

  4. I've got it down. You can see my functions.php file in the link below.

    Once I added theme support for post-formats the GF forms started saving again with post items (like title, body) in them. Even a blank functions file wouldn't work unless that single line was in the theme.

    This can be reproduced in TwentyEleven by simply commenting out the theme support for post formats. Same goes for TwentyTen. No plugins but GF are active.

  5. Ahhh, very nice work. Thank you for posting this (there is at least one other person having similar trouble). Post Formats seemed to be causing the problem. That makes sense because the 1.6beta1 includes support in Gravity Forms for Post Formats.

    We appreciate you sharing the information and I will pass this information on.

    [UPDATE 8/29/2011] this has been fixed and will be available in the next beta release.
