Title: Gravity Forms Data Persistence Add-On Reloaded Author: unclhos Published: July 12, 2014 Last modified: February 14, 2016 --- Search plugins This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on- reloaded.svg) # Gravity Forms Data Persistence Add-On Reloaded By [unclhos](https://profiles.wordpress.org/unclhos/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on-reloaded.3.3.1.zip) * [Details](https://srd.wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on-reloaded/#description) * [Reviews](https://srd.wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on-reloaded/#reviews) * [Installation](https://srd.wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on-reloaded/#installation) * [Development](https://srd.wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on-reloaded/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/gravity-forms-data-persistence-add-on-reloaded/) ## Description Consider this scenario: a) Your site uses multipage [Gravity Forms](http://www.gravityforms.com/). b) Your user logs in to the site and starts filling up a 5-step form. c) During the 3rd step, the user leaves without completely finishing the form. d) Some days later, the user comes back and logs in to see that his inputs are all gone! This happens because Gravity Forms by default does not save partially submitted forms. Our plugin resolves this issue. Simple! #### New Features 1. Data can be saved automatically every 10 seconds via AJAXs. 2. Disable persistence on a per field bases. Good for sensitive information you don’t want saved. 3. Can now persist data for guest users based on a cookie ID. #### KNOWN ISSUES 1. Only 1 persistent form can be on a page. ## Screenshots [⌊This is a screenshot from the FORM SETTINGS page.

However, the plugin does not seem to be supported any longer and the persistence of file uploads and compatibility with the persistence "Save" button are now broken. File upload data being lost is a deal breaker for me. I understand the developer isn't making $ and support is thankless. Unfortunately, it's necessary to keep up with WordPress and Gravity Forms. **adjusted for past value -1 star for unlikelihood of future updates. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d0c448b7a3aa624e819a1cda90a456202033b2ba40a41fa73075d94e0fd278f9? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Vital Plugin – Thank you!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/vital-plugin-thank-you/)󠁿 [mjmccarr1](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mjmccarr1/) January 29, 2017 This is a vital and great plugin. I couldn't live without it. So good, I wanted to try and make a donation, but couldn't for some reason. Thank you plugin author! Please maintain this one. Just FYI – I was trying to remove the avatar from user profile in admin by going to options and show avatar =0. This deleted all persistent data on the site. Not sure why, but it scared the %^$^%$ out of me until I could figure out what it was. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9f9513f208ff4b05ea099f00e1d58a689cd4e4b7ea4b756e17cef2a682c22d05? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Super!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/super-191/)󠁿 [Nitrat](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nitrat/) October 5, 2016 Allows you to enter new data based on previous submissions!

Since GF doesn't have any kind of "are you sure you want to exit?" built in, I installed this plugin. It works fantastically! And whats better is that the settings are even more comprehensive than I thought they'd be for such a small plugin. Thank you author!
