    I’ve built a form, attach it to a page and nothing shows up when viewing the page. Also, previewing the form in the admin area displays nothing except:

    “Because of different CSS settings, this preview of your form may appear different than what your end-user sees.”

    No form elements are displayed. This is under WordPress 3.3 using the Genesis framework.

    Could you link to the page that you you’ve attached the form to so I can take a look at the source and see if Ninja Forms is even initiating on that page at all. This is just a start but might help me to troubleshoot your particular issue.

    Hi James,

    Thanks for the reply…

    Ok, I’m not very familiar with the Genesis framework as I don’t have a copy to test with. Ninja Forms applies a filter to the_content() to display the form after a page or post and so either Genesis is overriding that filter or not directly using the_content() in the theme.

    Try using the shortcode provided for the form in the edit page screen editor and see if the form shows up with that.

    Had already tried shortcode, but no joy.

    Have removed all traces of Genesis framework & themes, removed all plugins except Ninja Form Lite, Akismet, and changed theme to Automattic’s “Toolbox” — a pretty vanilla setup, but still nothing.

    Browsers tested in: (Mac) Safari, Chrome, Firefox, (Win) Chrome, IE8

    Also of note, trying to drag & drop to rearrange form fields results in repeating drop target “outlines” in all browsers. See screenshot: <http://cl.ly/0M082R2h2g3x370C0J3u&gt;

    Only other option at this point is to install a fresh WP 3.3 & test from there. Won’t be able to do until later this afternoon. Will follow-up then.

    Jim – I am having the same problem, however, when I click on your link I can actually see your form.

    I receive the same “Because of different CSS settings, this preview of your form may appear different than what your end-user sees” message. Using the shortcode I can’t get anything to appear either.

    Hey Guys,

    I am currently updating the plugin to version 1.2.6. This new version fixes some big security-related bugs within Ninja Forms Lite, and should also fix this issue. Please download this version and let me know if you have any other problems with it!

    Thanks,

    – Kevin

    Phil – I think the comment form you’re seeing on that page is the standard WP comment form. The Toolbox theme doesn’t provide the option to turn comments off on pages. I can see it myself if not logged in as admin (comment form that is), but no Ninja form.

    Hey Jim,

    I haven’t been able to recreate that “outline” issue, but I will keep trying to see if I can narrow that down, that is indeed a weird bug.

    Hi Kevin,

    Update to 1.2.6 results in error when edit/viewing form:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘]’, expecting ‘,’ or ‘;’ in /home/jimmitch/public_html/_domains/jmo_dev/wp-content/plugins/ninja-forms/includes/sidebar.php on line 300

    Thanks for your efforts… Truly appreciated.

    Hey Jim,

    Yeah, I fat-fingered an extra ] when typing. Literally just committed the correction. Try downloading it again, and I apologize greatly for my inability to type properly!

    Kevin,

    I appreciate your help on this a lot – where can I download 1.2.6?

    Plugin Author Kevin Stover

    (@kstover)

    Hey,

    1.2.7 *should* appear shortly in the repo, so if you have the plugin installed, you will be able to update from the “Plugins” admin menu within WordPress. 1.2.7 fixes the bug that I caused by not being able to type.

    – Kevin

    Kevin,
    Form is now appearing. I will test it and let you know what happens. Thanks a ton for the help. 🙂

    Hey Kevin,

    Like a dolt, I deleted my 1.2.6 install since it thought you might not bump the version number. Went looking for 1.2.7 in repo to install fresh, and it’s not there (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ninja-forms/).

    Might be a delay, so I’ll wait. Thanks again for being so responsive.

    Hey everyone,

    1.2.7 should be live for everyone now, please go ahead and install that version and let me know if you have any more problems. I’m going to mark this thread as resolved, but please feel free to start a new one if you run into any other problems!
