Formatting Questions and Concerns

    First of all let me post this because my client is looking for a registration form to a gaming event to look almost identical to this one... http://evo2k.com/?page_id=850

    I have got most of the body looking good but I can't find a way to do the bottom part with the images correctly. I have been look at this thread here... http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/insert-images-as-multiple-choice-field-options

    Do you care to go a little more into detail with that code you provided for people who aren't great with CSS? I looked at his form in that thread I linked and he put his images below the check boxes. I would like mine to be horizontal like you see in the very first link I provided. It doesn't have to be perfect but I wanted to get it close with the images.

    The link to the page I am working on is here... http://ecthrowdown.com/?page_id=122

  2. Can't see your form - it's behind the maintenance mode plugin.

    Truly sorry about that, forgot it was on. It has now been lifted!

  4. @bombstriker Before we get to how to format things, the first thing I noticed is it appears you are using the Pricing Option field for the list of events. Do you have a Pricing Product field somewhere on your form? Because the Option field has to have a Product field to work...

  5. Disregard my previous post. I didn't know you were using Cart66 to do this, so my question isn't relevant as you aren't using our Pricing Fields with PayPal Add-On.

    The final release of Gravity Forms 1.5 will let you use HTML in your Field Labels. We will be releasing this possibly as early as today if not the first half of this week. I would wait for that and then you can use HTML in the Field Labels for those checkboxes.

    I am going to put my site back on maintenance mode until that new update is released since there are a lot of people wanting to access the site and it isn't close to being ready yet. Thanks and I will be back to ask if I can't figure out the new HTML in the Field Labels.

  8. Yes, the update will be available to all Gravity Forms users when it is released.

  9. Well there's me getting excited about a decent reply!

    Alas I shall start my own thread for my particular problem...mainly it's becuase I haven't applied CSS to a form in so long I'm a little rusty...

    I looooove the Gravity Forms though! Can't wait to test the support ;)

    Alight I used the new html coding in the fields and got exactly what I was looking for and it looks just like this....

    http://ecthrowdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/gf2.png

    Now it looks great on the site but I have a small problem. My client wants to see the total number of games registered for. So I went and checked the entries and this is what I found....

    http://ecthrowdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/gf1.png

    The problem is with the check boxes, with the coding there you can't tell what game is registered. So is there any way to not start it off with the HTML coding? Perhaps replace the coding with a new title or something but keep the coding intact on the actual form? Hope this makes sense.

    Note: My site is still in maintenance mode but you shouldn't need it at all for this problem everything actually looks fine on the site it is a "inside" kind of problem. But if you need to see it for whatever reason I can deactivate it.

    THANKS!

  11. @bombstriker Enable Values on the checkbox field and populate the Values with something that doesn't contain HTML and that entry list should use the Value instead of the option label for each checkbox.

    I just did what you said but the problem is still occurring.

    Again, everything still looks fine but they still show the code under entries. Thanks for that quick response though :).

  13. Can you export your form XML file using the Export Form feature under Import/Export and place it somewhere where you can post a link to it so we can download it and test with your form?

    Certainly, I uploaded the XML file to my mediafire account, here is the link...

    Let me know if you need anything else to test it.

  15. I am able to replicate the issue. We will have to see the best way to handle this. I thought it had been setup to use the Value if there was a value rather than the Option Label, but apparently not. We'll see how to adjust this in the 1.5.1 release so it is more user friendly.

    Alright, sorry to hear there isn't a fix yet but best of luck getting it sorted out for 1.5.1 and thanks for trying to sort this issue out. Other than that it looks just fine on the page :).
