    Have you read the FAQ? It has a section on this.

    My guess is that you did not select the page/post where the FORM is embedded, in the “Embedd page/post” dropdown.

    I did look through the FAQ, but somehow missed the post you mentioned, so thank you for pointing me in that direction.

    Another question: Is it possible to have Admin Only fields show in the Edit options? This is something that I really need for the project I’m working on. I know you can see the Admin Only questions when editing a form through the regular WP interface, but this doesn’t allow you to use some of GF’s logic.

    Thanks again!

    Remember that you are editing the entry on the front end, using the same form as you use when creating a new entry. And since admin only fields are hidden from the front end they will be hidden on edit as well.

    Is there a particular reason that you need to use admin only fields?

    Yes. The basic situation is that I need non-admin users to fill out certain fields, then admins need to be able to edit the admin only fields so that all of the info is in one place.

    The problem with editing entires on the backend now is that they don’t allow for any conditional logic, which is crucial for me.

    Hope this makes sense, and thanks for any help!

    Yes, but it is not possible to edit admin only fields on the front end because Gravity Forms does not render them and therefor we cannot access them.

    On simple solution would be to remove the “admin only” setting and hide the fields from the user with CSS/Javascript and then show them when an admin edits the entry.

    How does hiding a field vs. making it ‘admin only’ change how the entry is edited as far as conditional logic is concerned?

    If you hide fields with CSS conditional logic will still work.
