Oh Dear, what a shame it ruins any logic in confirmations and notifications.

Why can’t people just do what they say and not tinker with other areas of Gravity Forms. Initially I thought this was a great plugin, it does do what you want, and IF you only have one confirmation and one notification then happy days….

However I have 6 different confirmations based on what a user does when they complete the form. Each confirmation has it’s own conditional logic which works great. Then when you activate this plugin all that conditional logic is over-ridden with a separate entry at the bottom of each confirmation/notification. You only get the options to ..

Show this confirmation:

Never
Always
When a new entry is submitted
When a entry is updated

That means that any other logic I have set for each confirmation and notification is ignored. If the setting is set to ALWAYS , then all 6 confirmations are shown, NEVER will hide the confirmation (even if the other conditional logic states that it should display). Select ‘When a new entry is submitted’ and again it will display regardless of whether the built in conditional logic dictates it or not, so again I have all 6 showing , or all 6 hidden. The same applies to the notifications.

Such a shame, but I guess for those who only ever have 1 confirmation or 1 notification then this may work for you. I suspect the vast majority of people out there have more than that, and don’t want the fact that sticky list is enabled to dictate whether a confirmation should be displayed or not!

I have posted about this in the support forum but as I see that it doesn’t get read/replied to very often then I felt the need for a review as well.

I have had to go to a paid plugin, which is brilliant and support is great. I accept free plugins are just that and can be very patchy, but this feature/bug has totally killed it for me (and any other users who have multiple confirmations/notifications)

I will look again at this plugin in a few months. If they have fixed this I will update this review.
