Title: Submit Button Missing & Multi-Choice Not Working Last modified: March 28, 2023 --- # Submit Button Missing & Multi-Choice Not Working * Resolved [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/) * I have created a form with a basic multiple choice field which will not accept selections. All other fields on the form work fine. * Also, and more problematic, the submit button does not display. * I have made an exact copy of the form for another site and it works fine. As far as I know the only difference between the sites is the theme. So, I suspect there is some type of filter or override (I am afraid I really I am not sure of the right words to use) built into the theme that is blocking the multi-choice field and submit buttons. * In this case the theme in question is Phlox. * I have tried adding some basic custom CSS (lifted straight from the wpforms website) to try and force the submit button to display, but it made no difference. * Any ideas are welcome. And, if I’m not using the right language, I am happy to go back and try clarifying.

But if you’d like us to assist further, please feel welcome to continue the conversation. * Thanks! * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16623269) * Prashant, * Thank you for responding. I apologize for not checking back. I was at a conference for several days and not checking the thread. * The site has not been launched yet. That’s why I didn’t include the link in the initial post. Does it make a difference? Probably not, I guess, since you asked for it. Neophyte omission on my part. The link: * [https://aaceteams.com/contact/](https://aaceteams.com/contact/) * Thank you again for even looking into it. * [Prashant Rai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prashantrai/) * (@prashantrai) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16630532) * Hey [@wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) – Thanks for sharing the URL! * I looked at the website and noticed that a coming soon page is active. Screenshot. When you have some time, can you please temporarily remove the coming soon page so I can take a closer look? In the meantime, you can also perform a [plugin or theme conflict ](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-test-for-theme-or-plugin-conflicts/) and see if that helps. * Kindly, * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16630538) * Coming soon down.

No change was seen. I have recreated the form on another site and it works there. * Thank you again. * [Prashant Rai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prashantrai/) * (@prashantrai) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16634292) * Hey [@wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) – It looks like there could be a styling conflict between the site theme and the forms. To fix this, please try the following custom CSS snippet: * ```wp-block-code .wpforms-submit-container { display: block !important; } .wpforms-container input[type=radio] { -webkit-appearance: radio !important; -moz-appearance: radio !important; appearance: radio !important; } ``` * And in case it helps, here’s a tutorial on [how to add custom CSS like this to your site](https://wpforms.com/developers/how-to-add-custom-css-styles-for-wpforms/). * Hope this helps! * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16634330) * I will try this. Does it make any difference if your code block comes before or after the CSS code that is already there? * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16634610) * That worked. Thank you so much. * Just out of curiosity, was there someplace in the theme’s code that you could see the conflict? Or was it more that since it wasn’t the plug ins, it had to be a theme conflict and the radio code is a standard try fix? * One way or another, thank you again. * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16634652) * Actually, wait a minute. When I go to test the form I get a “Form has not been submitted, please see the errors below”, but there are no errors shown below. Can you help on this, or should I start a new thread? * [Prashant Rai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prashantrai/) * (@prashantrai) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16637103) * Hey [@wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) – When we see a form submission error message, it’s usually that optimization plugins are active on the website. When you have sometime, you can follow the solution shared in [our documentation](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-troubleshoot-javascript-issues-in-wpforms/#optimization-plugins) here and let me know how it goes. * Kindly, * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16638964) * Prashant, * I will look into this. * Thread Starter [wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) * (@wgo1) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16638985) * Prashant, * Actually, there are no optimization plug ins installed. So, I don’t think the documentation applies. I’ve created other forms for other sites, but this is the first time I’ve gotten the “Form has not been submitted, please see the errors below” message. * [Prashant Rai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prashantrai/) * (@prashantrai) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/submit-button-missing-multi-choice-not-working/#post-16642829) * Hey [@wgo1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wgo1/) – When you get a chance, can you please try deactivating the Anti-spam feature under Settings > Spam Protection and Security, and see if that fixes the issue?
