We have gravity on auto update, after this last update v2-3-4 we are having problems with some of the forms, the submit button is not working.
Anyone else facing any issues?
We had a similar problem. We had to manually update our plugin because update notifications and automatic updates completely stopped working. This is a real problem because it means that we need to manually update our entire catalog of websites that utilize Gravity Forms.
The only up-side to this is that the most recent version of Gravity Forms (2.3.4.3) resolved the submit button problem.
This can happen if the submit button markup has been modified, presumably by the theme or another plugin which is using the gform_submit_button filter. The modified button typically does not include the gform_button class and inline scripts for triggering the submission won't be included.
If you aren't sure what is changing the submit button you may need to run through a full theme/plugin conflict test: https://docs.gravityforms.com/testing-for-a-themeplugin-conflict/
Or you can use our Debug add-on to check for conflicts without affecting any site visits:
