 * Hi, I know you have covered this on other posts but I couldn’t find a proper 
   solution. Here you can see the post where I have embedded the form: [http://blog.invstr.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=416&action=edit](http://blog.invstr.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=416&action=edit).
   I have a single page form and I’d like to know if I can hack my way into not 
   having the Google confirmation page appear before the custom one. Or, at least,
   if there is a way to hide the content of that page with CSS. Thank you so much!

 * The URL you provided requires Admin access to your site to view. I think [this is the form](http://blog.invstr.com/?=416)
   you’re asking about based on the post id.
 * The Google Form confirmation page can hidden using CSS. The easiest way to do
   this is to temporarily turn off the confirmation page redirect. This allows you
   to easily find the HTML elements and classes which you can then hide using “display:
   none;”. Once you’ve got the content hidden, turn the redirect back on and see
   if the final result is acceptable.

 * Hi Mike, sorry for the delay. Yes, that is the correct form.
 * What I did is this: I created a post where I call the shortcode for the Google
   Form plugin, then I created a Page with the confirmation and placed a link to
   that page inside the “Confirm URL” field. I looked into the standard confirmation
   page’s code to see a DIV that I could hide with CSS but the only one I could 
   find is .ss-resp-card that only hides the text of the confirmation page, not 
   the whole page. Any solution around this? There is absolutely no way to remove
   this delay completely?
 * Thank you!!

 * There is no way to remove the delay completely because the plugin doesn’t know
   the difference between the confirmation page Google generates and the “next” 
   or “previous” page of a multi-page Google Form until the WordPress page has already
   started rendering.
 * The AJAX confirmation page has the least amount of delay but it doesn’t always
   work due to the various ways WordPress themes are constructed.
 * This sort of question comes up pretty regularly so I’ve written up a [step by step process to show how I setup a custom confirmation page](http://michaelwalsh.org/wordpress/wordpress-plugins/wpgform/google-forms-custom-confirmation-page/).

 * Thanks for a great plugin and excellent support. Thanks to this information, 
   my redirect works to my custom confirmation page. I just have a couple minor 
   questions
    1. Any advice on finding themes that don’t break the AJAX? I am using theme “WP
       2016” and the AJAX style does not work FYI
    2. Maybe the custom confirmation set-up would be less error prone if somehow choosing“
       style=none” were labeled more clearly as something that disables the whole custom
       confirmation process?
