Hi Schnappinator,

I’m afraid I don’t understand what you are describing. You can hide any area with the code I gave you, by putting the <div> in the correct location and using the correct field validation.

If you are trying to let users manually show/hide portions of your form (i.e. by clicking expand/collapse somewhere on your form), I believe you can do that with CSS. A script it not necessary.

Best of luck

Hey there – I’m glad this was helpful for you.

I don’t think I can help with the other two issues you have though sadly, as they don’t relate to showing/hiding fields with jQuery ??

(1) The first question relates to the minlength attribute, which does not exist with HTML5 or Contact Form 7.

I’m no expert, but I think normally in HTML5 you add this kind of validation into the script handling your Form (it’s easier), but in this case the AJAX script lives in the Contact Form 7 plugin itself. I suggest you raise it as a question for the CF7 writers, they may be able to help you with a work around for their plugin.

(2) Sounds like a CSS formatting issue, as opposed to a functionality issue. I suggest posting up your CSS in a separate thread for someone to take a look at and help you with.

Best of luck getting it sorted!

Oh I see, well that’s a bummer.

That’s the problem with making things idiot proof, some hacker will find a way to make himself into a better idiot.

Thanks for the reply ??

I don’t know how to do it though – any ideas?

To correct this issue in your next release, you need to do this:

1. Line 155 in function “site_colluns” in pet_post_type.php

   Please change the line from this:
   $column_headers['custom_posts'] = 'Publica??es';

   To this:
   $column_headers['custom_posts'] = 'Publications';

2. Line 174 in function “site_colluns_gerencia” in pet_post_type.php

   Please change the line from this:
   $custom_column = "<th style='font:normal 12px arial'>Nenhuma publica??o</th>";

   To this:
   $custom_column = "<th style='font:normal 12px arial'>No Publications</th>";

Thanks.

Further to the above…

Instead of taking away the upload_files() capability in order to hide a menu, what you should do is have your tick-box call a conditional statement to just cosmetically “hide” the menu.

I’m no expert coder, but I do know that you can achieve this by:

// Remove menu items for users below Admin level
add_action( 'admin_init', 'my_remove_menu_pages' );
function my_remove_menu_pages() {
	// If the user is not an administrator then...
	if(!current_user_can('add_users')) {
		// Remove the "Media" Menu from the list
		remove_menu_page('upload.php');
	}
}

I’ll be using this code in my installation, until such time as your tick-box idea does something other than taking away the capability.

Cheers

Found the culprit –> here

I also tried this:
4. Changed my theme to TwentyEleven with no Plugins enabled.

Still no joy.

Making as resolved, as I’ve decided to go in a different direction using the White Label CMS (ergo cleansing the back-end to look less scary, making front-end customisation not required).

Got it! Logic wins again.

Bah…I know what I have to do, just don’t know how to do it. Logic tells me I need the if statement for the “if user isn’t an editor” part around both the menu_order_filter function and the add_filter call. Somehow…

Never mind, I found the culprit.

The one plugin I needed for a pet rescue website (called the ADA Plugin) seems to bork up the language in my installation. When I turn it off, the problem goes away….damnit.

Quite honestly, I’ll just add this to the list of problems I’ve had to fix with the ADA Plugin, for lack of a better alternative…this thing needs the mother of all re-writes imo.

Hrm, well I noticed a typo in my step 5 above. It should say this:

<!-- Add jquery script to support Conditional Forms-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/js/1.7.1/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/js/hidefieldsScript.js"></script>

The filename I gave for jQuery 1.7.1 was slightly borked. Here I am telling folks to “download this file here” then I give it a different name when I get to the step that needs it. Good one Bunny, great stuff….

Glad you got it working though ??

You’re very welcome!

I found the same when I looked yesterday; lots of posts 1-2 years old with people asking how to do this, but no detailed answers with examples given. I wanted it for myself and had a free afternoon yesterday, so went digging.

As for the 1.7.1 thing, that’s just me following the filing conventions that WordPress seems to use to file scripts. I noticed it gives each a folder with the version number on it and (to be quite honest) I figured….I better do that just in case it means something ??

I’m sure it would work fine if you put it into plain old /js folder, as long as your call to it (in my step 5) looks for it there.

Anyhoo, really glad this was useful for you ??

Crashnet, I’m posting here because the other posts you made about this are too old to reply to.

You said you were looking for a way to have conditional form fields with Contact Form 7 and it looks like you posted just about everywhere to find the answer! I’m sure you found the answer by now, but if not I’ve just made a post with the answer for you here.

Kind regards
