Edit view with admin-only and conditional logic fields

  • I’m working with the current version of GFD (3.6.1), and just wanted to note a couple of bugs I ran across:

    * Admin-only fields

    Fields that are flagged as “admin only” in GF are showing up when using the single entry edit view (ie useredit=true). I tried using a hidden field instead, but that shows up as well.

    * CSS Class Name

    To get around the above issue without custom hacking the plugin, I’m trying to use the “CSS Class Name” to attach a css class that I can use to hide the form fields – but it appears that the custom class is not used for the useredit view.

    * Conditional logic fields

    Lastly, fields that are set to use conditional logic (e.g. display FIELD-X only if FIELD-Y has set/chosen VALUE-Z) are displayed in the useredit view as well, but are not useable. By that I mean that no matter what value you enter into them in edit view, the values are never saved…. even if you first change the submission to meet the conditional requirements. So it’s partially paying attention to those conditional settings – but not completely?

    I’m digging into the plugin code now to see if I can figure out a fix one way or the other – but thought I’d post a note and see if you had any suggestions or fixes ??

    One addendum note – I do have “Show Admin-Only columns” unchecked / disabled in the configs.

    I have a bug where I can’t edit the approved/not approved checkbox I have. I have it checked as admin-only and it shows up in the single entry view, but it dissapears when I try to edit the single entry view.

    We see the same thing as twykr. Directory view behaves as expected but when we choose an entry and go to entry view all fields display, even those we marked to not show in entry view. Also, fields that should be skipped because of conditions are not skipped. We are just starting to use this plugin so maybe we are missing something simple but we’ve tried messing with all available plugin options. Thanks for any feedback.

    We made a page that demonstrates these issues in a very simple form.

    Better information: We now get what we expect in Directory and Single Entry mode. However, when we select “Edit Your Entry” it shows all fields. We expected it to honor our field settings and the form’s conditional settings just like with the single entry screen.
