Gravity Forms Preview Submission: Ensure Accuracy with Easy Previews

Gravity Forms Preview Submission is a valuable perk that empowers users to preview their form submissions before hitting the submit button. This functionality helps minimize errors and improve the overall user experience on your website.

What it Does:

• Provides a Preview: Gravity Forms Preview Submission allows users to see a concise preview of their form data after they’ve filled out the form. This preview helps them confirm that the information they entered is accurate and avoid any mistakes in their submission.

How it Works:

Simple Version:

1. Merge Tags: This version utilizes entry-based merge tags within the “Content” setting of an HTML field.
2. Summary Creation: By using the {all_fields} merge tag, you can create a summary that displays all the data entered in the form, providing a complete preview for the user.

Advanced Version:

1. Field-Based Merge Tags: This version goes beyond the simple approach and offers support for all field-based merge tags within the “Default Value” setting (and “Content” setting for HTML fields).
2. Enhanced Functionality: In addition to the preview functionality, this advanced version allows you to:
   • Pre-populate fields based on information entered on previous pages of the form.
   • Improve form flow by automatically carrying over data from previous pages to subsequent pages.

Enabling the Feature:

1. Add an HTML Field: On the final page of your form, add an HTML field from the “Standard Fields” group. If your form doesn’t have pages, you’ll need a “Page Break” field or manually move the HTML field to the last page.
2. Edit HTML Field: Select the HTML field to open its editing options.
3. Content Setting: Locate the “Content” setting. Click the small icon next to the “Content” text area to reveal a list of insertable merge tags.
4. Select Merge Tag: Choose the “All Submitted Fields” option to display all form data in the preview.
5. Save the Form: Save your changes to the form for the preview functionality to take effect.

Benefits of Using Gravity Forms Preview Submission:

• Reduced Errors: By allowing users to preview their submissions, you can significantly reduce the number of errors and incomplete forms submitted.
• Improved User Experience: The preview functionality empowers users and instills confidence in the form filling process, leading to a more positive user experience.
• Increased Data Accuracy: Previews ensure that users submit accurate information, which is crucial for data collection and analysis.

Overall, Gravity Forms Preview Submission is a user-friendly and practical perk that enhances the functionality of Gravity Forms. By enabling this feature, you can streamline your form submission process, improve data quality, and provide a more satisfying experience for website visitors using your forms.
