I have a requirement for a project that allows users to fill in a form partially and then save the progress until they have all the information they require to process the form.
The form is on one page only and our user do NOT register and they must not have to register even for saving progression.
What I need is a way to save a form with all the data a user has inputted and then email the user a URL (the email is captured in the form) which will allow them to continue the form at a later date.
I have very little experience with gravity forms so I am unsure if this is something I am able to do out of the box or if there is a plugin that will assist me.
Any help is much appreciated.
I believe 'Save & Continue' functionality is in the next Gravity Forms version core (1.9). I think beta is due to be released shortly...
According to my understanding of it, this should cover most of what you're looking for.
While I have no experience with it, here is a link to an add-on that claims to save form status:
https://github.com/soulseekah/Gravity-Forms-Saved-Forms-Addon
and here's another one:

in fact, here's a link to the google search I did. There seems to be several solutions to save the progress of a filled out Gravity Form.

I am customizing a theme and a plugin in Wordpress. The plugin has a button where a user can click to bring up a form where they can ask a question. I want users to use post questions through this button on this plugin, but I don't fancy the visuals on it. So I thought I'd make a form on my landing page that will post into the plugin's form. If this is a terrible idea in the long run, please feel free to let me know because I am still new to web dev.
So the goal is to create a new form whose aesthetics are to my liking but still use the plugin's built in posting capability. How do I make my form paste into the plugin's form and then submit it? You'll notice that my form has 1 additional field: the add money field. I also need to integrate this into the plugin. If anyone know how to begin modifying the code for this I'm all ears to anything I need to start reading or a general way of how to approach this.
My form
Plugin's form
Summary:
Need to have my form paste to plugn form and submit
Need to add a field to the plugin code that my form can post to similar to how the other fields will do do
You can post from a different form if you get the destination URL or javascript that is handling the original form post. You can use the debugger in Firefox or Chrome to inspect the page contents to see how the form is handled.
Adding the money field will be more complicated because you will need to update the server side handling to accept the additional parameter so that it is not simply ignored or causing errors. How much work this is depends on what the server has to do. It may involve adding a column to the database or creating a new table which you will likely want to do the wordpress way if you want to have something that is maintainable.
Lastly keep in mind, that every time the original plugin is updated, it may bust your add on code unless you create your own plugin from the original.
I have a wordpress site with two registration forms on it, they are located on two different pages via "theme my login" short code. I would like to be able to track which of the form's the user submitted the registration form on, I'm thinking via the admin email that notify me there is a new user or even as a field as Im using Cimy user extra fields, my question is
1) are either of these options possible
2) which is quicker / easier to achieve as It has to be done asap
3) can you point me in the right direction for guides or even the codex if its that simple.
im guessing the I would need to find the hook in wordpress that is responsible for the admin email and add the wordpress either $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] or a wordpress equivilant?
You can include the url of the page which you embed the form, in the email. You can use hidden input field if you have used a custom form. If you have used contact form 7 plugin, you can get needed information from this url http://contactform7.com/special-mail-tags/
Ok, I know there have been a few questions posted on this but a lot of the information are dotted around and not necessarily connected in one form that I need for my site.
Basically I want to create the style/functionality of the twitter form on their home page.
Where inside the input fields are the labels, and when you click on the input the fields the labels don NOT disappear but fade into a different colour. Its only when you type, is when it disappears.
If they don't type and press submit I want the verification signs come up ( I know how to do this but it seems to be conflicting when I put the jQuery code in)
When all fields are inputted I would like the form to fade and represent a thank you message whilst
the data gets placed into a mysql ( specifically a MAMP/PHP My Admin) database.
Very similar to this form on hbuddy.com
Would massively appreciate if this was responded in a step by step format, simply because i am at the beginning stages of learning pretty complex programming language.
Thanks!
you can try jquery ajax for form submission..
These links will help you for getting started..

I've scoured the forums/web for this answer, but I've failed to come up with a solution.
I have a PHP based form that inputs form data onto a PDF generated by FPDF/FPDI (utilizing a pre-made template). That, in and of itself, is working just fine.
I have one version that is a simple quote; the user can input their email without adding in personal information if they're not ready to move forward. A PDF is created with their quote info. The question has come up on whether or not this generated PDF can have form input fields and a send button, that way the client can send along their newly completed form with their quote information.
Does anyone know of a utility out there that can generate a functional PDF with input fields/send button and also input data from a PHP form?
Whoever can help will be this girl's hero. I may even send you cookies.
I have a PHP based form. For many of our inputs, the user clicks an html which created a custom popup window with a "mini-form". When the user clicks on the submit button, the values from the "mini-form" are sent to the main form to hidden inputs using JavaScript. This can become complicated to do, especially with validation and other complications. I know there are a million PHP frameworks for forms, but I can't find one to deal with these situations.
Does anyone have advice?
My understanding is that you are opening new form using var win = window.open() now using the win reference you might be populating the actual forms data. This is old good approach which is been working well from long time.
If this is correct Then I think that if you would really want to do it in better way you should start with JQuery UI.
