[Plugin: Custom Contact Forms] Big Problem! Spent a week building forms! for nothing?

Set the Remember Field Values option in General Settings to “Yes”

tlovette

I tried that… it is working on a few of the sites but on one of the themes does not remember the form data.

I am thinking there may be a conflict in some javascript I am going to try and isolate the source

any thoughts on what may conflict with this?

Paul

Turned off all the javascript that may have been conflicting and still no storage

can you point me to where this happens and what to check for?

thanks

Paul

Ok so I wanted to make sure there were no conflicts with any plugins etc

I installed a totally new wordpress install to a test folder

then I installed the Custom contact form plugin

set the remember fields to Yes (verified this did update)

still won’t remember the data when I get an error and click back.,… works on all my other sites … so looks like a server configuration error somewhere

is there a particular PHP setting that would cause this to happen???

I don’t want to lose all this time I put in on this ??

thanks for all your help

Paul

Post a link for me to look at.

I transferred the entire site onto my dedicated server and it ran fine..

so I emailed IPOWER and asked them to check their server settings

they proceded to tell me they don’t support 3rd party applications and as I was writing them back a “Thats not an acceptable answer” email I checked the form and it was working.

so they ended up changing something on the server settings that took care of it.

I do appreciated your help are you an author??? I just installed the updated versions where you can drag and drop the elements working great now ??

Paul

Yes I am an author. Please let me know if you have any problems.

No I am good for now

the other problem I noticed was when a person hit enter after typing in a text field the form was being submitted so I added this code that makes hitting enter in a text field just tab to the next field rather than submit the form..

I hope it helps someone…

add this to the header before </head>

<script type=”text/javascript”>
function tabE(obj,e){
var e=(typeof event!=’undefined’)?window.event:e;// IE : Moz
if(e.keyCode==13){
var ele = document.forms[0].elements;
for(var i=0;i<ele.length;i++){
var q=(i==ele.length-1)?0:i+1;// if last element : if any other
if(obj==ele[i]){ele[q].focus();break}
}
return false;
}
}
</script>

then go into custom-contact-forms-front.php

and add onkeypress=”return tabE(this,event)” after type=”text”

this will make hitting enter in the text field act as TAB rather than submit

??

Hi
I’m experiencing this problem too (I’m sure it used to work before)
I have set the Remember Field Values option in General Settings to “Yes” but its not remembering anything.
Any help please?
Thanks

Coffe_king all I can tell you is the IPOWER fixed it by modifying the server settings.

They did not give me details on what was updated sorry that’s the best info I can give you ??

Paul

Hey 2paulm
What exactly did you say to your webhosting supplier?
I can imagine they are going to give me the exact same response.

Hi 2paulm,

I appreciate your posting to code to have “enter” be a tab instead of submit.
Would you mind being more specific as to exactly where to place the code?

Many thanks!
