Cannot customize error and success messages

I created a form using user input elements and a data set. For some reason, error and success messages are being repeated many times on the page and I can’t edit the messages either.


I tried selecting the submit button > connect to database to set my own error and success message, but am not able to click on the “+Add success message” or “Add failure message” buttons. Can someone help me figure out what’s wrong?


Thank you!

I am facing the same issue. Please help .

HI, I have been facing some issue while connecting by button with the dynamic page. Everything is fine but I want the dynamic page to filter the content displayed which has been the created by the logged in user only. This means that when the logged in user is the owner of the data ONLY then will thedynamic page will show the data.
But as soon as I enter this filter and then try to link my button (on another page in the member’s area) I am simply unable to connect to the dynamic page via the page link option. If I delete the filter it is working fine.
Please suggest a solution ASAP.
Regards

Hi Samantha,
Thanks for url, tried to reproduce the problem on your site and it’s looks ok - https://screencast.com/t/JKeGEpcMAH
And also I can edit the text message - 2018-04-04_1145
Maybe it’s reproduced on specific OS or browser, please clarify.
Checked on Mac+Chrome.

Thank you.

Thanks for looking into it Alexander. I’m not sure what happened, but when I went into the editor again yesterday I was suddenly able to edit the messages. Still not sure what was causing the error or how to fix it, but for now I guess I’m glad it worked itself out.

Hi!

I’m facing the same issue here. The labels doesn’t show on editing mode, only on prod. When I click on “+ Add success message” or “+ Add a failure message” nothing happens.

--------- SOLVED (edit) ---------
Reading this comment I found that “Hidden Elements” checkbox and unmarked and marked it again, and now it’s working as it should. https://www.wix.com/code/home/forum/questions-answers/help-issues-with-your-content-has-been-submitted

OS: Windows.
Browser: Chorme, Firefox and Edge.

Thanks!

I am trying to edit the error message text but the editor just won’t let me change the text or any other element like colour, font etc.

The URL it is occurring on is https://www.mission2020.me/donate

Please help me out if anyone has found a solution to this.

I had the same issue, and found a bug. The error / success messages don’t show unless you go to “Preview” and then “Back to Editor”.

I created a form using inputs, and connected this to the Team dataset. When I edit the submit button, I am not able to see where the error message is in the editor. When I click “add error message” or “add success message” nothing is visible. See Image 1 below.

I tried to add them, but couldn’t see anything. When I publish and go to the live site, there are multiple error messages, so clearly they are being added, just you can’t see them or edit them from the editor. I hit undo enough times to make them go away, and revert to the default.

I then tried the “Preview” and then went “back to editor” and could now see the error / success messages.

Seems to be a bug.

I found the solutions.

  1. Delete existing “success” and “failure” messages.
  2. Re-create them.
