Button Submit Redirect to Regular Page

Still not working.

Redirect only works when connecting to a dynamic page. It does not work when connecting to a regular page. This is the ONLY site where this function does not work. It works fine on all other sites.

PLEASE HELP!!! Thank You :slight_smile:

Here is URL https://www.castiestv.com/apply

Hey Nayeli,

Looking at the site and trying to find which page corresponds with that URL (apply) but couldn’t figure that out. Give me hint.

Oh, and BTW - cool site! Once I get the site working I’m going to send in my application. Who knows - I may become famous.

lol. you are ALREADY famous in my book :wink:

So … Become a Castie 2 (is the form) then after they fill out the form they should be redirected to Join Test 3.

So regular page → to regular page. This is not working.

If I redirect them to a dynamic page ---- then it does work. The form submits fine ---- it just doesn’t go anywhere after that. It stays in the same page if I try to redirect it to another regular page.

Hi,

So I tried it in Preview mode and it seems to work - takes me to the next page. But I did notice that a text field overlaps the Create profile button.


I just wonder if the user clicks on the text field, that it interferes. I didn’t want to make the change.

Another thing I noticed is the link setting for the Create profile button specifies a ā€œweb addressā€.


Really not sure if it makes a difference. Seems to me that the setting should be set to a ā€œpageā€. I have to research this to see if it really matters which setting.

Thoughts?

My page doesn’t have that text :frowning:

Is my page stuck between and OLD version and the NEW saved version?

My view:

Hmm, could you please show me in the site structure menu which page. I see two pages with the same name, but they don’t look alike. I don’t know which one is Become a Castie 2 .

Client updated page names. The one highlighted in blue is the page with the form. The page that says Join — should be the redirect page after they click submit. (I’ve hit publish so many times … lol … )

OK - that’s the one I’ve been looking at.

The text field I mentioned (ā€œTry again laterā€) seems to be a ā€œhiddenā€ field that’s displayed upon some certain condition. I really don’t know if that is causing a problem, but just thought I’d point it out.

You said that you’ve hit Publish - well, have you saved? Just askin’.

It’s weird. It worked for me in Preview. I guess I need to look at it in Live.

lol. yes, save – publish. I open and close the editor to enter the site again (multiple times).

You see text covering button ----- which I DID have there before ----- on a very very old version of the page. I don’t see that at all.

I tried deleting the button, deleting dataset ---- what I did not try before is make a brand new page. I think I am going to do that now. I will let you know what happens.

Let me know if you want to do screenshare … so you can see what I see on my screen ---- it looks nothing like your screenshots :frowning:

I got to the live site. I see what you say. I click the button, data is saved, but does not go to the page. Puzzling.

It’s ok ---- it’s not the first thing I’ve broken. I broke the new wix blog too :slight_smile:
(They still can’t figure out the problem since Jan 12th lol)

I’m just that good hahahahahahaha …

I’m rebuild that page now. Will let you know what happens.

A star is born!

OK - gotta go out for a while. Will try to check in later. If unable, then will check again on Sun.

Bad news …

I rebuilt the page entirely. I saved the URL for the form as /apply and then /apply-now …
The form still does not work. I added a text, hidden on load, it appears on click (as it should), but it is ā€˜invisible’ in the editor. I simply cannot find it — although it does not get in the way of the button ---- I just find it odd that I cannot see/find the text. Maybe it’s my browser? If it is my browser, I don’t believe that would be related to the button not redirecting to the ā€œJoinā€ page (or any other regular page on the site, it only redirects to a dynamic page).

I guess I will have to convert the ā€œJoinā€ page to a dynamic page in order for this to function. (Which ---- is annoying. lol)

Anyway - that’s the update. Nothing fixed.

Just got back, but I gotta go off the grid till Sun.

I hate when stuff like this happens. It’s so unfair.

Anyhow, sorry I didn’t mention earlier that maybe you should try to do a minimal page - even just a Submit button (with the link to the page) with one or two fields already with default values. Just to see if it works. If the minimal version works, then you can keep adding additional fields, one at a time, testing as you go. Maybe that will unmask the culprit.

Anyhow, gotta go. Have a nice weekend. Be back Sunday morning Pittsburgh time.

Hi Nayeli, did you end up getting this resolved? I am experiencing the same issue, though puzzlingly the redirect works in preview mode.

No – I had to create a ā€˜fake’ dynamic page, then I put a timer code to redirect them to the regular page after that. My code is here:

Okay, thank you for the follow up.

Hi Nayeli and Nicholas,

I have the same problem, i even posted a question about it 2 days ago, haha :D… But if i understand it right, it will work if i change it to a dynamic page?

Yup … that’s the only way I got that one to work… I didn’t have that happen on any other sites, just this one.
