Hi. For example

.jzzf_email_button { background-color: red; }

should paint it red. You can use the “Custom CSS” field for that declaration.

CSS can be quite a nightmare, especially when unforeseen interactions with your theme’s stylesheet occur. That’s why I leave that part largely to the users ??

Hi tfindlay. I actually don’t have enough experience on this field, although my guess would be to set both URLs to https://www.simtechwebdesign.com. From the documentation:

“The Site address (URL) is identical to the WordPress address (URL) (above) unless you are giving WordPress its own directory.”

From my understanding, this is not the case here.

Caution: changes to these fields can leave you without access to your administration panel–a bad pitfall.

There is more details on this topic here

It seems to be a peculiarity of your WordPress installation. There is a confusion between https://www.simtechwebdesign.com and https://simtechhost.com/stwdWP/.

I guess simtechhost.com is some kind of test environment and you migrated to simtechwebdesign.com without changing all of the references to the original domain? THe fact is that Jazzy Forms tries to send its request to simtechhost.com and this gets rejected by the browser, because it would be an attempt of cross-site scripting.

Hi Stevermanm, thank you for pointing me to your live site. In your case it is not a CSS issue but the fact that for some mysterious reason a <br /> (line-break) tag is added between the radio button and the label. It usually does not happen, but it seems some kind of text filter is applied to Jazzy Form’s output. This might be because of some other plugin, the method you are using for insertion or, more like, your theme.

The good news is that if I remove a line-break in my original HTML source code, this does not happen anymore. I’ve figured that out with another user who had the same problem. I hope you can wait some more days until the next Jazzy Forms update.

A new thread about the values vs. titles discussion has been opened here. Let’s keep on talking about that particular issue there.

Yeah, some guys (Istvan and plnewton) already pointed out this issue in an earlier discussion. There should be a way to access the option title, not only the value. I agree.

I’m still figuring out how to implement this without clashing with my general design decision to adhere to common spreadsheet formula syntax. An obvious way might be something like a new function called SELECTED, CURRENT, or SELECTED_TITLE.

I will give high priority to this issue, because you are not alone with this and your example is pretty fundamental. However, as always, I can’t commit on any dates.

You can now (since v0.9.9) use placeholders like {{a}} and {{a+b}} in text elements (text/html/headings). The corresponding values are updated instantly (realtime). This does not include dropdown elements’ options. However, it might be considered to be a first step towards your suggestion.

You are not blind. It’s me who hasn’t been very sharp-sighted to leave out textareas. I’ll try to implement that as soon as possible. Until then there are only normal single-line input elements.

One more thought: it might be that the JavaScript scripts loaded on the Jazzy Forms page are not in sync with the current plugin version due to your browser’s caching. Could you try to delete your browser’s cache and hit refresh? This particular issue should be mitigated with v0.9.9, coming out by tomorrow.

Hi. I’m sorry you are having trouble with my software. Before wiping everything away, it would actually be useful for me to dig into your case and see what is happening. Other users might run into the same problem (including yourself in the future).

Back to your question: similar to other plugins Jazzy Forms configuration is stored in the database instead of the file system. Corresponding DB tables and options (entries in the wp_options table) carry the “jzzf” prefix in their name.

The following data could help me to analyze the problem:

• the page’s source code (i.e the output of your browser’s View Source Code command)
• JavaScript errors, if any
• a dump of the DB tables I mentioned before

Jazzy Forms also has a hidden diagnostics screen (something like a cheat mode). I actually wanted to keep this secret but here it goes: go to the “Forms” page and add &diagnostics=1 (ampersand “diagnostics” equals one) to the URL. Then press the big “Don’t press this!” button. This wipes away all DB configuration and deactivates the plugin. Please, don’t play around with the other options on that screen. For authorized personnel only.

Hi. Yes, I’m thinking about a new element called Table or Matrix that would not be visible but instead would simply hold the quatity and price values. There would then be a function similar to VLOOKUP/HLOOKUP. That would be the closest thing to a typical spreadsheet solution for gliding prices (at least for advanced spreadsheet users).

At the time of writing (v0.9.8) this is not implemented yet. There is, however, an alternative that works already, using nested IF functions. It gets tedious with large numbers of prices, but the idea for such a price formula would be like the following example:

IF(quantity>100, price1, IF(quantity>50, price2, IF(quantity>20, price3, price4)))*quantity

I hope you get the idea. The syntax for the IF function is IF(condition, value_if_true, value_if_false).

I will implemented a package of text/string related functions soon. I will not forget the Len() function you are requesting here.

Hi! Thanks for the kind words and for trying out my software.

The FAQ entry you are citing here treats another topic. The output of the jzzf_form() function is the form itself (i.e. its HTML code), not the values the user fills in.

You have the bear in mind that once the form is loaded it resides in the user’s browser, i.e. on client-side. You can use JavaScript in order to grab an element’s value and do whatever you want with it – on client-side.

If you want to use PHP code for further processing, you are asking for a way to get values back to the server. Technically that would be an HTTP request (e.g. GET or POST) carrying user input and calculated values to the server. Jazzy Forms already does something similar for Email. However, at the time of this writing (v0.9.8) my software doesn’t have a generic HTTP request/form submission feature. I hope I can come up with it soon, because it’s been requested by other folks, too.

Hi Pres7,

that’s a very generic question because possibilities are vast as those of web design itself. CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language that describes how HTML should be displayed, including every attribute you might think of (font size, colors, images, dimenensions, etc..). The general look of your site is determined by its theme’s CSS style sheet. The “Custom CSS” field is just a tool that comes in handy if you want to extend these definitions for pages with Jazzy Forms, without having to alter your theme. Of course, you need some CSS expertise for that job, otherwise it’s rather pointless.

If there is any concrete modification you need, there are surely folks around here who would be glad to help or at least give you some hints.
