 * Hi there. I get: “Sorry, you are not allowed to preview drafts.”
 * Could you reproduce your form in the form tester ([https://conditional-fields-cf7.bdwm.be/form-tester/](https://conditional-fields-cf7.bdwm.be/form-tester/))
   and send me the updated link?

 * conditions are things like
 * `show [Iwasoncareerbreak] if [employement-950] equals "I was on a career break"`
 * Basically conditions are the heart of the conditional field plugin. If you don’t
   set any conditions the plugin will not do a thing.

 * show [Iwasemployed] if [employement-950] equals “I was employed”
    show [Iwasselfemployed]
   if [employement-950] equals “I was self-employed” show [Iwasunemployed] if [employement-
   950] equals “I was in unemployed” show [Iwasinfulltimeeducation] if [employement-

 * You forgot to close your first group. (The `[/group]` tag was missing.) Also 
   one of your conditions said `"I was in unemployed"` instead of `"I was unemployed"`.
 * I fixed both these errors here, and now it’s working fine: see

 * please create a new topic. The WordPress.org forum [guidelines](https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#i-have-the-same-problem-can-i-just-reply-to-someone-elses-post-with-me-too)
   dictate that you should create a topic for each individual issue you have. A 
   topic should not be used as a tread. Topics need to be searchable and meaningful
   for other users as well.
