'Required' Dropdown container not getting proper classes

  1. 'gfield_contains_required' and 'gfield_error' are not given to the element that contains required dropdown lists, making them un-style-able when they are not properly filled out.

  2. Looks like they're working fine for me.

    What version are you using and more importantly, can you post a URL to your form so we can take a look at it.

  3. Yeah, I show them working in preview mode too, but when output on the frontend, none of the 3 dropdowns get those classes.

  4. yeah, if it works in your preview and not in your theme then there's some kind of plugin/theme conflict going on. Have you tested the form in a different theme?

    You'll probably want to test for conflicts to see if you can narrow it down. http://rkt.gs/testing

  5. This is a hand coded theme with nothing but one page and no special code going on, and gravity forms is the only plugin installed. Could it be that i'm using the template tag to bring in the form and not the shortcode?

  6. Got it, it had something to do with me not declaring all of the options in the function: <?php gravity_form(1, false, false, false, '', false); ?> -- at least that's what I changed it to to fix it.

  7. Yea, if you didn't pass everything to the function call that can cause problems. Glad you figured it out.
