 * Hello,
    I’ve created a form with a good number of calculated fields, and once
   I completed it, I noticed at least one of the fields returned a value of 0, despite
   triple-checking the code. I then tried duplicating the field using the duplicate
   button, and voila the equation works, but further down the form, even after relinking
   subsequent equations to the new, duplicated equation, the next linked equation
   also doesn’t work. On the linked page, the second ‘Qualifying Income’ is what
   should show, but it has exactly the same equation in it as the first ‘Qualifying
   Income’. I don’t want to have to duplicate and relink every field, just to find
   out the problem has repeated itself further up the page, so could I have some
   insight into why this is happening, please?

 * Hello [@jacko552](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jacko552/)
 * Thank you so much for using our plugin. Which values are you entering? I’m testing
   the form by entering random numbers, and both fields are returning the same result:

 * Thanks for the swift reply! After re-entering the values in the fields above,
   the duplicate boxes now show duplicate values…I don’t know what happened there,
   but thanks, it seems to be working now!
