So I started to re-create the form field by field and on the 5th element I insert the text in the label field and am unable to save the form. This is the text from the label field:

“Is your <i>NEW COMPLAINT</i> with your: (select any you haven’t been treated for recently)”

I was wondering if it might be the length, but the previous element #4 has the following label (which is longer):

“Where is your <i>Existing Complaint</i>? (Only include what you’ve recently been treated for)”

I thought that the trailing parenthesis might be the problem. So I changed the wording to

“Where is your <i>New Complaint</i>? Please select any you haven’t been treated for recently”

which worked, and

“Where is your <i>New Complaint</i>? (Please select any you haven’t been treated for recently)”

also works, so I’m stymied by where my error or a bug might be.

I’ve continued to basically rebuild the form from start to finish and I’ve yet to encounter a save error except on the 1st line.

Hello, So I’ve been dealing with a form that I can’t update, but still works. I get the error message listed above. I’ve done the following and nothing has remedied the situation

I should note that I can edit other forms in Quform and save them. Just this particular form will not allow me to save.

In addition I duplicated the form to see if I could save a duplicate, no success.
I exported the form and imported it, also unsuccessful
I duplicated the form and started deleting elements one by one until I had nothing left, still no luck saving.

As requested I:

1. Enabled debugging. There were some errors not related to quform, but a couple of other add-ons that I disabled and now no longer get error.

2. Changed theme to “blank slate” No change

3. Disabled all plugins except Quform

4. Tried different variations of the previous

At this point I feel that I should try to re-create the form from scratch, but that will take hours.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi Ally,

thanks for all your help, my custom email notifications are working great. I have a question about adding punctuation to the email_contents.php file. Can I add HTML to the file? I tried adding html but I was getting an error when submitting the form. I want to put in a period (.) at the end of a group of elements but don’t want to put it in an element text, could advise a good way to do it?

Thanks!

Hi Ally,

Excellent advice as usually, this worked great. I have only one additional follow up to this question:

One of the fancybox options is scroll bars: scrolling: ‘auto’ or ‘yes’ or ‘no’, set to auto or yes, I can only get the scroll bars to appear if I set the height: ‘px’ rather than ‘%’. Otherwise the bars don’t come up. Any recommendations, is there a default I need to change in quform or on the form itself?

Thanks!

So I figured out part of my problem, I had a whole group marked to “show under” conditional logic, but when I changed the options of the previous question the conditional logic was based on, it broke the logic and prevented the whole group from being displayed even though follow up questions with in the group had their own logic which should have caused them to be displayed.

So items within a group cannot be displayed individually if the whole group is set to “hide” or the whole group is not set to “show”.

As if that is not confusing enough. The ultimate problem I had is that if you change the labels on the options or the value of the option (if customized) if breaks the conditional logic of questions associated with those options/values.

Josef,
Would you insert the custom code in the form somewhere or would this be a plug-in wide setting?

Hi Josef,

Thanks for your post. The form is used in a check-in form for my office. The form is displayed on an iPad and already uses multiple instances of conditional logic. I’m trying to decrease scrolling after user feedback, people feel the form is too long.

While I don’t have/know the solution, I have a work around.

We have an issue with people using the “enter” key when typing their name in a form on a software keyboard on an ipad. We solved the issue by making another field required so that they would get an error rather than accidentally submitting the form. So field A would ask that the person to type in a text field and field B would be a required question which would prevent the “enter” key being used in field A from submitting the form.

This works perfect, thank you very much!

Hi Allan,

I see my problem, I was adding each yes/no question into a single multi element. I need a element for each item requiring a yes/no answer.

The Yes/No option as written in the HTML box is aligned left so it is over the labels. What do you think is the best way to get them lined up over the radio buttons. A single row table with the first cell a set width to match the the label length?

Could I move the radio buttons apart by adding spaces in the label for the YES radio button?

Thanks!

I would Love to see:

1. Slider fields to choose between a number between 0-10 (or text from Completely Unsatisfied to Completely satisfied.)
2. Matrix/Chart for multi-line yes/no questions
3. Signature Field for touch or mouse
4. Star Rating/Thumbs Up rating (fun)

Thanks!

Hi Allan,

Thanks for taking the time to write the custom css for this. I’m trying to follow the directions and I need clarification on a couple of items:

Under the HTML element add all Multiple choice elements.

Do you mean after creating the HTML element, Add a Multiple choice element below HTML element?

Click Customize Values check box and Remove the Label, so it’s blank

To clarify, by Label are you referring to the Element Label or the label for each of the options, leaving only the “value” for each line?

In (Form Builder) Settings – Style – Label – Label placement – set to Inline

If I click on the settings button next to the “form” button in the form I’m building and I click on the “style” tab, I don’t have an option for “Inline”, just “above”, “Left”, and “Inside”

In (Form Builder) Settings – Style – Label – Label width – Remove value, so it’s blank.

I don’t see this option in the Form Builder Settings.

I’m working on a beta of the form and I’ve made the page with the form public here:
http://checkin.chcaa.com/beta/

I’m happy to share credentials with you, feel free to message me thru my forum account.

Thanks again for all your help!

Hello,

Is there a way to make check boxes and radio buttons larger? I looked all over the site and couldn’t find any reference to making them larger.

Thanks!
