Where did the yellow confirmation box go?

  1. I had one of my clients ask me tonight after we updated his gravity forms plugin, where did the yellow confirmation box go? He said that a yellow box with a confirmation message would pop-up after a form had been submitted and now it is just plain text in the body. He would like to know where it went? Was this changed in a recent update or am I missing something here?

    I'm sure I could play around with the css, but I never did anything before to make this work, so I am trying to give him an answer to what happened. Thanks for the help.

  2. Please provide a link to your website where we can see this problem. Also, the confirmation message in Gravity Forms was never a popup. The message appears in a box on the page with a yellow background and border, but it's not a pop up. Thank you

  3. Hi guys!

    I get this too.

    The confirmation message was never a pop up as such, it was merely a CSS class that showed a nice yellow box around the confirmation message, which made it very easy for a user to see the form had been submitted.

    This has disappeared on a recent update, but i couldn't tell you which one, I haven't been keeping track.

    Now the box has gone, it's very easy to miss the confirmation message, as it gets lost in the body text of the page.

    I would love to see this return. Perhaps even with options for colour coding the box's colour?

    Any ideas?

    You can try submitting my form on my test site here to see what I mean:

  4. That is certainly strange. I just checked my installation and I see that it is gone from there too. I will ask the CSS guru at Rocketgenius why that is, but in the meantime, you can use this to get the old yellow confirmation box back:

    [css]
    #gforms_confirmation_message {
    	background-color:#fffac6;
    	border:1px solid #feda70;
    	margin-top:10px;
    	margin-bottom:10px;
    	padding:20px 0;
    	font-size:14px;
    	color:#252525;
    	text-align:center;
    }

    That's from an older version of the plugin. Add that to your theme's style.css.

  5. Chris, you are a star!

    I guess it's simply been overlooked or deleted by accident in a recent update.

    Hopefully you guys can re-implement it in the next update!

    Ross :)

  6. I asked about it so I'm sure Kevin will come along with an explanation when he can.

  7. Thanks for your help! If you want to see the site that I am talking about you can go to http://sierrapoolsparepair.com. In the meantime, I will go add the css to the theme. Greatly appreciated!

  8. From Kevin Flahaut:

    We got more & more complaints about overriding the default styling of the confirmation so I removed it a while back. I'm thinking of adding it back at some point, perhaps as a ready class option with a couple of modifications.
