Checkboxes & Taxonomies

Resolved dcleek

With the latest update of Gravity Forms (1.9.1) Populate with Taxonomy doesn’t work with checkboxes. Any time I update a form, the form will throw a validation error on the checkbox field, even if that field was properly checked. If I remove the checkbox field, add a new version of that field back and save the form, the form then displays and submits properly. But, the taxonomies are not saved to the proper taxonomy in the admin area of my custom post type. Also, if I need to change something else on the form in the admin, I have to make that change, save and then remove the checkbox field and add it back again to get the form to submit.

Is there any way I can fix this? Or, is there an update coming that resolves this issue?

Thanks for your time and help!

A fix for this issue was posted on Github a few days ago. Just tested, and taxonomy checkboxes are working properly again.

Where does this code go? In the functions.php file or in the plugin file? Do I need to replace any existing code? Thanks!

Matt, Thanks for the reply. Sorry for the delayed response. I didn’t get notified about your post until Seth_Resler posted.

I updated the plugin with the fix posted in Github. The checkboxes seem to work, but not completely.

If I check multiple options, the last option does not save now. So, if I check two, the first gets saved. If I check three, the first two get saved.

Are you seeing the same issue?

Thanks again!

Seth_Resler, the linked code is the new gfcptaddonbase.php file in the plugin folder.

I hope that helps!

Thank you Matt,

Your code solved the problems with the checkboxes.
All multiple options are saved.

Best

I took another look at this code and realized I missed a line when copying the updated code. Just tested and it works!

Thanks!

I’ve copied the code into my file, however the gfcptaddonbase.php file is inactive:

Editing gravity-forms-custom-post-types/gfcptaddonbase.php (inactive)

The main file is active:
Editing gravity-forms-custom-post-types/gfcptaddon.php (active)

I attempted to deactivate the plugin, removed all the content from gfcptaddonbase.php and pasted the entire content from link above, then reactivated the plugin. Alas, gfcptaddonbase.php is still inactive and thus my custom taxonomy is still not working.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

This fix should be released in the public plugin!

Oh! I wasn’t aware this plugin was being maintained anymore. I hope the selecting checkboxes but the selection not always registering is also cleared up when the new version is released. Thanks!

I’m not able to fix the problem. Checkbox inputs are still not being saved.

Thank you!! This fixed my problem.

So, this plugin is no longer supported and with GF 1.9 (from months ago) is broken. Too bad because it’s been helpful.

Hi everyone, I’ve just released v3.1 which address this issue (among others). Let me know if anyone else experiences any issues with this.
