the forms I coming up blank after submission!! Please can you help me solve this. I’m trying to use the plugin but it is causing a lot of issues.

Hello

Are you running the latest version 2.8.71 ?

Please update and report if the problem persists with a detailed description of your issue.

yes, I would like a refund, this plugin has caused too many issues

Hello

The issue you’re describing is not normal and It sounds like you have a potential conflict or corrupt installation. Uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin would be the first thing to try, and then disabling other plugins to check for a potential conflict. You can request the refund through your envato account if you are unable to resolve.

Hope this helps :)

I selected Alpha Numeric Characters only – but I want to make sure people only type in English and not other languages but I need to allow spaces, – ! and ?. Is there a way to do this? Is there another option that allows this?

also for the Alpha Numeric+ can you allow more special characters like @&*-/(). In fact all the special characters would be great, I just want it to be English and if someone wants to write & or a word with a – they shouldn’t get frustrated that it doesn’t work.

“ Is there a way to write a paragraph of text and capitalize the first letter in each sentance?” - the short answer is no. The plug-in is not designed for long format grammatical or technical writing correction.

Alpha Numeric + can be expanded to include any other special chars, but with it’s first release there is a need to gather more community feedback before shaping it one direction or another.

The devs decided to roll out realtime specified chars only which is likely the most powerful option for you to create any custom alphabet or character set you want available to use on an input. Using this now restricts in realtime as well as on form validation.

Alpha Numeric + on the other hand remains a simple one click way to limit to basic typing needs for the English Alphabet.

New in version 2.8.7
  • Added “Specified Characters Only” fields realtime input restriction.
  • Fixed issue with “Specified Characters Only” fields not pre-populating the set value in the form editor.

If I select First letter upper case then it works in real time and changes as I type. If I also select Alpha numerica characters then it only lets me use the Alpha characters but ALSO allows uppercase letters, it does not correct in real time. Will it only correct in after the form submission (it is a long form so I haven’t test that)? Is that the correct way for it to work? The real time changes do not work for First letter upper case if Alpha numerica is selected too? Can I email you privately with a link to the form so you can see what I mean?

Hello

You can send a link for testing. But yes, please test the formatted results after submission. Some formatting is on submission only and some is in real time.

It seems to work on form validation, it is just confusing b/c without the Alpha characters selected it works in real time.

3a0b706b-f50e-4657-a76e-9f4ef3a1d10e I need to set the field to work only for Alpha numerica characters AND to show First letter upper case. If I select both only one works. Can I use both options?

Yes you can use both. Submit the form and view the results.

I need instructions on how to use this add on. Can someone please send instructions. Thank you.

Hello Can you please contact us by the “email the author” form by clicking on our user name to provide the URL for the form and if possible the login details to a development version of the site so we can check on what the conflict may be

I did a test application all the way to submission this morning and when it saves in Gravity Forms the upper case each word option works correctly. It just doesn’t work when the form is populating. I appreciate this plug in as we have people that like to type in all case and if it saves correct that’s what matters!

Hello

Yes, as noted, the input is also corrected on submission even if the real time changes are not happening due to potential site conflict or browser error with JavaScript.

Normal functionality for the First Letters Uppercase is the it also functions in real time. You can check normal operation on our plug-in demo page here:

https://preview.codecanyon.net/item/gravity-forms-auto-formatter/full_screen_preview/19513275 Your site likely has JS error on the form page or another conflict preventing this from happening, but as you noted, the correct formatted saved data is generally all that matters for case formatting.

Clearing both the WP cache and the local browser cache updates the JS files star any conflict resolution or changes in the JS output for the form page.

However if you would like us to look over the page to try and check for conflicts feel free to send us the URL via the author email contact form :)

Hi there, been using your plugin and it’s been great! I’ve found a little bug, which I was hoping you could help with. When I select “Disabled Field” for a Text Area Field, it disables the field, however if the text is long and goes beyond the height of the text box area, the user is unable to scroll down further to read the entire contents of the text area field.

Do you know how I can disable the field i.e. prevent the user from copying and pasting the content and make the field appear grayed-out (as standard), whilst also still allowing them scroll?

Thanks for your help and all the efforts to make such a good plugin.

Hello

This is not a bug but how disabled fields function. You can not interact with disabled fields. To have a text area big enough for being able to read all the information you have in it that you have set to disabled, you can set the default width and height of a text area field by setting its “height value in CSS”. This would preload the text area at the specified dimensions or percentages for adequate space to view your content.

To make this easier for anyone who isn’t familiar with writing CSS for a site, and as an added feature to lock down the given height of a text area, we have just added a feature to simply type the desired row number for a text area which sets the height at that number of text rows/lines explicitly and allows you to simply set the height this way for any locked down fields from right in the form editor. You still cannot scroll this as is would be disabled, but you can the row hight to match the number of needed rows to exactly match ..or be larger than your prefilled content. You can also experiment with the new (BETA) auto resizing text boxes for setting this same setting to 0 to have it auto size to the prefilled content. (also autosize on input)

Hope this helps : )

2.8.41 * Added Option for auto resizing text areas based on content size (BETA) 2.8.4 * Added Option to textareas for setting a fixed row height value with number input. * Added page load CSS for diabled and readonly fields in case JS is disabled. * Changed min and max char inputs to number type.

Hello,

I keep getting a lot of issues:

Fri Nov 08 15:24:56.423634 2024 pid 25407 PHP Warning: Undefined array key 1 in /var/www/**/wp-content/plugins/gravity-forms-auto-formatter/gfaf.php on line 473, referer: https://***l/?uid=0932160

Please advise,

Hello

I am not sure which version you are running but Ver. 2.8.3 is available and previous versions would function as described above which would properly format to “Jean-Jacques”.

This is using the “First Letters Upper Case” option, and not the “First letter upper case” option.

I should specify that *most special characters are considered word breaks. An underscore or apostrophe would however not function as one, but the hyphen/dash as in the example along with most other special chars do.

Well, you are right, it was not working a few years ago but now it does! That’s really a simplier approach, I’ll remove my cutstom formatting everywhere now and use this instead. Thanks!

I want to use SSN Masking along with OBSCURED feature for the SSN input field. Is it possible to use both of these together with this plugin?

Yes. You can use import masking with obscuring.

Hello team. Does your last version supports LIST fields ? Multiple columns or not? I always get that error even on setting GFAF on “off”: Uncaught TypeError: substr(): Argument #1 ($string) must be of type string, array given in /Users/deefuz/Local Sites/wpfu/app/public/wp-content/plugins/gravity-forms-auto-formatter/gfaf.php On removing that field, it works.

Maybe that validation process change the data value from JSON to array before processing? Any way to test it before formatting the data?

Does the error list what specific line of code it is referencing?

Do you have a documentation page on how to use the plugin?

It doesn’t show how to format the form?

Hello

I am not sure what you mean about formatting the form.

From the settings page at top:

INSTRUCTIONS: Set Individual field options within fields “advanced” options tab while in the Gravity Forms Form Editor. Set Form wide options on each forms “Forms Settings” page. Centralized blacklist and text replacement is configured below, as well as custom messages for failed blacklist validation. Field specific blacklists and text replacements are in the fields “advanced” options tab.”

Open the form editor and go to a fields advanced tab. There is a GF AUTO FORMATTER section. All options to format each field ( not centralized options ) are set there for each field individually

In the form editor “form settings” page you can set form wide options. Such as turning on the submission review page.

Ah brilliant, thanks a million

Hello, since the last update the plugin breaks GravityWiz Entry Blocks. Please advise (I can send more details thourgh email).

Click our user name. You can send an email using the author contact form

Email sent. You’re missing the screenshot which would help you fix the issue though.

Hello once email is replied to you can send screenshot direct

delete please.

Bonjour,

Je viens d’acheter la version 2.8 car ma version précédente ne fonctionnait plus avec mon site, j’ai pensé que cela débloquerait ma situation. En effet il bloque la prise de rendez-vous (Gappoinments, avec GForms). Mais non ca bloque toujours, une idée? Cordialement Daniel

Hello

We are not familiar with Gappiintments, but if it operates as a feed or add-on basis you should try using the “encrypt after submission is processed” option with the fields (advanced tab for field in form editor) to pass unencrypted data to your feeds or add-ons since they do not know what to do with encrypted information. The data is then encrypted after being handed off to those plugins.

Hope this helps.

Merci de votre retour, mais j’ai oublié de vous dire que le plugin “gAppointments” était intégré dans le plugin “GP Nested Forms” dans un formulaire Gravity Foms. Peut être que cette information peut amener une autre réponse car je n’ai pas vu la possibilité de transmettre des données cryptées ou non. Cordialement Daniel

Hello

Nested forms are not supported for encryption at this time . Some base functionality will work but we do not support full functionality through it.

For the Gappointments being used through nested forms this would apply as well.

Hello. Your plugin is amazing thanks but It seems that there’s an issue regarding accentued country in the address field when we force them uppercase.

For example “LA RÉUNION” in french is uppercase on select but if we edit the entry in the admin end, the dropdown is empty as it can’t match the country in the dropdown. If I update the country to “La Réunion” in the database everything is okay then as it can match the value in the dropdown.

Any idea?

Hello

There s a solution by the develop team in testing. would you like you please assist in beta test this solution? It can change the GF list of countries on PHP end so match front end display and will show properly on edit of the entry. It can only utilize one case format because available filter only apply to the form as a whole and is not field specific, so will use last address field format on the form. Please click us user name and send an email address where we can send the beta version to and we will send you beta version 2.8 for testing to be more speed and be sure you have no more issue with the plugin capitalization of address when editing the entry and using country with rare accented mark of letter. additionally the update include improved sorting of accented character countries when in dropdown list if server has available functionality.

Hello. You mean using the gform_countries() function to force a country list?

Hello

Yes. This currently appears to be the only way to be able to adjust the listed countries to match a potential augmented data value. Unfortunately it is global to the form as it is loaded and not per field, but it does allow for the change as requested.

Hi There!

Sorry I have bought this plugin by error, I will not use it, how can we ask for a refund?

Thanks,

You can request a refund through your envato account on the purchase

Hey guys,

We’re attempting to install your plugin on our site but each time with activate the plugin we get a “Critical error” message.

Our site is hosted on WPEngine, WordPress 6.2, PHP 8.0.28. Gravity Forms 2.7.3

Any ideas on the cause?

Thank you.

hello

2.7.3 is confirmed working on those system specs. It’s actually its main development environment.

You may want to try deactivating ALL other plugins aside from gravity forms and then activating our plugin. then activate others 1 by 1 to see if there is a possible plugin conflict.

It would help to include the full text of the error so you can also turn on error reporting in WP and check what the cause is while doing this.

Let us know if there is a specific plugin conflict and what the error is.

Hi, I added all the special characters from this website:

https://owasp.org/www-community/password-special-characters

to the Central Strict Blacklist but js script tags (can’t type here as the server blocks the message) still gets through the validation?

hello

also just a note , but since you have a comma in that list you need to be sure that the comma is entered as specified in the strict list. “*To use a comma in your blacklist text use: see setting instructions.. cannot insert here”

if you send email with specifc entry into the strict list and specific text being allowed through we can look to resolve for you, but the above mentioned solutions are recommended to limit password to alphanumeric input only.

Thanks, I have sent an email with the details.

Hello

Thank you for the email. We were able to replicate the scenario and located the issue. A new version has just been released which should become available very shortly and you will be notified via email if you selected to receive item update notifications or through the Envato market plugin for auto updates.

2.7.8 * Fixed an issue where some special characters used in an input caused blacklisting to be skipped for those special characters. Central Strict Blacklist and Individual Blacklist are now more accurate with special characters. * Tested on WP 6.2

I’m testing the plugin on a dev website which I will then transfer to a live website. Please could you let me know how to transfer the license from one site to another.

Thank you

Hello

You can deactivate your test site by clicking on the button that reads “licensing and deactivation” Deactivate the test site. Then activate your live site.

BE SURE to switch the website key to the new auto key on the live site. (Delete the website key and save then save again to generate the auto key.) it is different to each WP install so you do not want to be using the auto key from your test site as a custom (non auto) key in your live site.

Hello,

I have a question about the Gravity Forms autoformatter plugin.

Is there a way to set up the formatting so that the first letter in any word is capitalized, but any word can also be customized? For example:

If I type the following company name – - “Brown LLC”, it will show up on the back end as “Brown Llc”. Is there a way to be able to set it up where “Llc” is changed to “LLC” before if is posted in the database? In other words, is the first letter is always capitalized option cannot be modified? Thank you.
