An opt-in is usually represented by a checkbox on the form which indicates the user is opting in to whatever you are offering. It can also be the act of submitting the form itself if the purpose of the form is clearly indicated. A double opt-in is usually represented by an email that is sent to the email address with which the user "opted in". The double opt-in better guarantees that the user knowingly and intentionally opted in.</p> <p>What you're referencing is simply a pre-submission preview of the entered form data. There are several topics on the forums in regards to this; however, none that would be possible without custom code. We do not currently have any default functionality to handle this. </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-45550 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 00:01:15 +0000 leannemorrison 45550@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>Hi guys, I am new to this, so would appreciate your guidance please. My client has requested a form on his site where the user fills it in and then hits the submit button. He insists at this stage that the user should then get a page showing his entries (address, DOB, email etc) BEFORE they then submit for the final time. I am not up with all the terminology, but is this what is referred to as the 'opt-in' or 'double opt-in' message? How do I go about achieving this please. Do I need to purchase an add on, and if so, which one? Website is <a href="http://www.clublotto.cc" rel="nofollow">http://www.clublotto.cc</a>.

If not it would probably be January or February.</p> <p>We are doing a lot of work on the new Gravity Charge product (<a href="http://www.gravitycharge.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravitycharge.com</a>) Some of which will trickle down into the User Registration Add-On for Gravity Forms. </p> <p>For instance, we are implementing the email validation for Gravity Charge and reverse engineering how WordPress Multi-Site handles it so we can do it for non-Multi-Site installs while still being backwards compatible with a Multi-Site install. So once we nail that we can then apply that functionality to the User Registration Add-On.</p> <p>If you had not heard about Gravity Charge... you can read more here: </p> <p><a href="http://wpcandy.com/reports/exclusive-details-on-the-upcoming-rocketgenius-plugin" rel="nofollow">http://wpcandy.com/reports/exclusive-details-on-the-upcoming-rocketgenius-plugin</a> </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-41198 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 16:45:15 +0000 hegeman 41198@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>Hi Carl, great news about email confirmation being in the works for the User Registratrion Add-On. Would it be anywhere in the next few weeks / months or will it take longer?<br /> Thx... </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-41174 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:37:15 +0000 Carl Hancock 41174@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>While I agree email confirmation will be a cool feature, and it's something we'd like to add I would say it's not basic form functionality. I'm not aware of any of the existing form builder solutions (other WordPress plugins or Wufoo, Formstack, etc.) that does email confirmation on standard forms.</p> <p>As for user registration... email confirmation is a feature that will be added to the User Registration Add-On and is already in the works. It's more complex than most people may realize. While WordPress Multi-Site implements temporary tables for handling user data while it's awaiting confirmation, standard WordPress implementations do not. So we are recreating what WordPress Multi-Site does and making it backwards compatible with Multi-Site so we can leverage the built in functionality that WordPress has for user activation via email confirmation. </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-41153 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 14:49:28 +0000 hegeman 41153@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>Agree, would very much like to see the email confirmation functionality. Much needed for user registration. </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-36469 Wed, 28 Sep 2011 13:19:50 +0000 hermit 36469@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>I'm quite surprised this function isn't active yet! A customer asked for this, I said it is possible but now it seems it isn't.</p> <p>It's needed for other things than newsletter subscriptions too. Like confirming a membership to a website or organization. Basic form functionality I'd think! Confirming the e-mail address in a reliable way is important, because otherwise the entries don't have much value. </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-35031 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 19:29:30 +0000 artus360 35031@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>same here. Will be waiting patiently for any update on "email confirmation" functionality.<br /> Thanks! </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-34545 Tue, 06 Sep 2011 07:39:20 +0000 SigarettDesign 34545@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>+1 on e-mail confirmation. I have just used Gravity Forms to set up a membership registration form, but it doesn't feel complete until the owner of the e-mail must activate the account. I don't like the idea of having a registration form where "e-mail theft" is possible. </p> <p>Hope to see this soon!</p> <p>Eivind </p> http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/confirmation-link-after-form-entry#post-21052 Tue, 22 Mar 2011 13:12:07 +0000 Carl Hancock 21052@http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/ <p>We don't currently have an official Constant Contact Add-On, however there is one in the WordPress.org plugin repository. We are planning on releasing our own later this spring. </p>
