So if I’m using Jquery to hide a dropdown and it’s ticked as ‘required’ then it will ignore that property when hidden?

I’m only asking again because my experience is different. I’m finding when it’s hidden and required, it won’t let me proceed.

Thank you! One last thing.

Is there a way to turn off the ‘required field’ option if a field is hidden?

The price of this plugin is very reasonable, considering the level of support.

This worked, thank you!

I have a sort of follow-up to this question.

If you use a DS dropdown to define a value, is it possible to link it to an adjacent field in your csv to display a read-only value? Sort of like a VLOOKUP in Excel?

Ok I get it now. Thank you ??

What if your data is just a single column with a heading?

To work around this I created a column ‘field 0’ with text I don’t want to use, then filled column 2 ‘field 1’ with the data I want with a blank row at the top. I selected ‘field 1’ for select column for texts, and ‘field 1’ for select columns for values. Now my form populates with a blank field.

I think that’s similar to your solution.

Hey Codepeople,

Thanks for helping but unfortunately this didn’t work. I tried both classic and direct for the script load method, and checking unchecking the javascript cache and no luck.

Yep, works perfect. Thank you.

Update: We activated the twenty seventeen deafult WordPress theme and it works. Is there a better way to write this that will play well with the custom theme we’re using?

Hi Codepeople,

We’ve tried deactivating all other plugins, and I’ve started recreating the form from scratch (id=7) to rule out any conflicts.

On pg 2, jquery rules on the buttons define show/hide of the dropdown fields on pg4. However, the form breaks on pg4. Again this form works correctly in preview mode. Any ideas what it might be? Could it be the theme, and if it is, any tips on how to troubleshoot?

Thank you.

Ah brilliant, thanks. I just didn’t know if a hidden field could accept the value of the calculated field’s string. However, once I assign it to the hidden field, how would I format within the string?

I suppose any formatting I do will need to be done in javascript?

Not a page break, paragraph break.

Yeah now that I’ve looked around the web a bit, you are correct, it’s all available using CSS. Some of the examples I’ve seen are pretty complicated.

It looks like the easiest way to avoid formatting issues would be to define a picture with coordinates, and clicking a part of a picture selects a checkbox/label that is outside of the image. This I would assume would be preferable to trying to embed checkboxes on to the background image.
