== Formidable Forms Branding Guidelines == |
| 132 |
|
| 133 |
Formidable Forms may also be referred to as Formidable, Formidable Form Builder, Formidable Pro, or Formidable Views. |
| 134 |
|
| 135 |
== The Best Gravity Forms Alternative, WPForms Alternative, and JotForm Alternative for WordPress == |
| 136 |
|
| 137 |
If you're looking for an advanced WordPress form builder as a Gravity Forms alternative, Formidable Forms delivers more power at a lower price, with a completely free version that Gravity Forms doesn't offer. As a WPForms alternative, Formidable goes deeper: beyond contact forms into calculator forms, web applications, and data-driven front-end displays that WPForms simply can't match. Looking for a JotForm alternative or Typeform alternative that keeps your data on your own server? Formidable is the answer. All form data stays in your WordPress database, not on an external SaaS platform. Formidable is also the top Contact Form 7 alternative for anyone who has outgrown CF7's limited feature set and wants drag and drop power on top. Compared to SurveyMonkey, Formidable Pro delivers professional survey forms, NPS forms, Likert scale fields, and real-time results directly inside WordPress, without a separate subscription. Ninja Forms users looking for more built-in power will find Formidable's form builder offers calculators, Views, and a web application builder that Ninja Forms add-ons can't replicate in a single plugin. Fluent Forms and Forminator users who need advanced calculator forms and a complete data display layer consistently upgrade to Formidable. |

== Frequently Asked Questions == |
| 163 |
= How do I get started with the best forms for WordPress? = |
| 164 |
The fastest way to build a form is to use the example we built for you. After you activate Formidable, insert [formidable id=contact-form] on the WordPress page of your choice. |
| 165 |
|
| 166 |
Go to the Formidable page and click "add new". Choose the Contact Us form template or another free template and click "Create". |
| 167 |
|
| 168 |
Next, edit or create a WordPress contact page. Click the "Formidable" button to open the shortcode generator. Choose your new web form and insert it into the WordPress page. Save the page for a beautiful WP contact form, ready to collect and store your leads. The contact form template will get you up and running fast. |

| 170 |
= Why isn't WordPress sending emails? = |
| 171 |
When you do not receive emails, try the following steps: |
| 172 |
|
| 173 |
1. Double check the email address in your Email action on the settings page. The [admin_email] shortcode uses the email address from your WordPress Settings -> General page. |
| 174 |
2. Are you receiving other emails from your site (ie comment notifications, forgot password...)? If not, notifications will not work either. |
| 175 |
3. Check your SPAM box. |
| 176 |
4. Try a different address in your settings. |
| 177 |
5. Install WP Mail SMTP or another similar emailing alternative and configure the SMTP settings. |
| 178 |
6. If these steps do not fix the problem and other WP signup emails are not going out, please reach out to your web host. |
| 179 |

== Changelog == |
| 368 |
= 6.35 = |
| 369 |
* Security: More strict sanitizing is now applied to entry key values before it gets used in the HTML of a form. |
| 370 |
* Security: The value that records who last saved an entry is now always set from the current user, not allowing for any custom values unless importing. |
| 371 |
* New: The shortcodes list now offers show options for more types, and long names are truncated so the list stays readable. |
| 372 |
* New: The Processor column on the Payments list page can now be sorted. |
| 373 |
* New: A message is now shown on the Payments list page after bulk deleting. |
| 374 |
* New: The required email input used for Stripe Link payments will now display a required asterisk like other required inputs. |
| 375 |
* New: A new frm_builder_after_field_label hook has been added for adding content after a label in the builder. |
| 376 |
* New: A new frm_payment_user_id filter has been added for setting which user a payment belongs to. |
| 377 |
* Performance: The builder now loads much faster when there are a lot of fields. Fields loaded with AJAX are now loaded in asynchronous batches. |
| 378 |
* Performance: The way the denylist is checked has been optimized, so spam checks are much faster when a large amount of text is submitted. |
| 379 |
* Performance: Pricing updates for Stripe payments are now debounced, and are skipped on pages with no payment intents. |
| 380 |
* Fix: A subscription would not get cancelled after it reached its Recurring Payment Limit. |
| 381 |
* Fix: Payment status actions could run twice for the same Stripe Link payment. |
| 382 |
* Fix: Multiple customer objects would get created for Stripe Link recurring payments. |
| 383 |
* Fix: Subscription plan details would not update after changing the trial period. |
| 384 |
* Fix: A Stripe Link redirect would use the URL from Form settings instead of the URL in the confirmation action that ran. |
| 385 |
* Fix: Square payments would not correctly follow conditional logic when two Square actions were used. |
| 386 |
* Fix: The wrong amount would get used when verifying a buyer with Square. |
| 387 |
* Fix: Connecting and disconnecting Square would go by whichever mode was active instead of the mode that was selected. |
| 388 |
* Fix: In Pro, the dropdown on a style card would not populate, leaving no way to delete a style or set one as the default. |
| 389 |
* Fix: In Pro, a section added after a partially sized field would move into the previous row after a reload. |
| 390 |
* Fix: Adding the frm_first layout class would not start a new row for a group. |
| 391 |
* Fix: A field id used in a description would not get switched when a form was duplicated or imported. |
| 392 |
* Fix: Creating a field with a missing or invalid options value would raise a PHP warning and store null. |
| 393 |
* Fix: The Embeds column would only update when a post was inserted, so it went stale when a page was updated or deleted. |
| 394 |
* The old hard coded widths for the frm_grid_2 through frm_grid_10 classes have been removed from the generated stylesheets, helping to reduce the file size of styles used on the front end. |
| 395 |
|
| 396 |
= 6.34 = |
| 397 |
* Security: Additional validation has been added to guarantee that submitted HTML in form data by untrusted users cannot be used for XSS. |

* New: Address fields are now included in Lite! |
| 399 |
* New: Address field data is included in PayPal Commerce credit card payments when defined in payment action settings to help prevent entries from incorrectly getting flagged as fraudulent. |

| 401 |
* Fix: Additional checks have been added to make sure that pages will not result in 404 errors when Gated Content actions are not actually defined for the page. In addition, when a custom permission is used for handling access to a private page, the custom permission is properly checked for. |
| 402 |
* Fix: Captcha field labels no longer use labels to prevent orphaned label issues since the label cannot reference the input in an iframe. |
| 403 |
* Fix: A JS error would occur when removing the last layout class from a field. |
| 404 |
* Fix: The JS spam token would get added to a form multiple times when multiple forms were on a page. |
| 405 |
|
| 406 |
= 6.33.1 = |
