# Data Persistence

 * When submitting a form and receiving an input error (e.g. required field not 
   answered or incorrectly entered) all of the uploads are immediately lost.
 * This happens particularly often when using a captcha in the form, since they 
   are often incorrectly answered. Also, when using a multi-page form, and the client
   uses the PREVIOUS/NEXT buttons, all files are lost upon return.
 * There are some free plugins that help solve data persistence in Gravity Forms,
   but sadly they don’t seem to work for this plugin.
 * Is there an simple way to fix this at our end, or would a larger update to the
   plugin be required? Thanks!
