| This JS creates collapsible Gravity Form sections breaks | |
| IMPORTANT: | |
| 1 - Within the Gravity form, you must add the class collapsible to each section break. | |
| 2 - All fields within those section breaks must have the class collapsible_field | |
| 3 - You must include both the CSS and the JS | |

@AngelaP09 - There was a mistake on line 83 - the code has been updated.
@odil-io - All of the fields of the form are now required, including the State / Province / Region field.
Hi Bruce
I updated the code but it still didn't expand the whole section where there is error. All the sections are shown collapsed. There is a message "There was a problem with your submission. Errors have been highlighted below." at the top of the form.
Thanks.
Regards
Angela
@AngelaP09 - Have a look at https://test.ingeni.net/ to see it working.
If you are getting different results, then re-check the JS code and also the developer console of your browser to identify any JS errors.
Hi Bruce
The url is working. It expands all the sections where there is error.
Is the form used a gravity form?
@AngelaP09 - yes it is. Latest Gravity Forms. And this code will only work with Gravity Forms as it targets GF specific features.
Hi Bruce
Do I need to do any coding for the function "gform_post_render" before the display of the required fields will show?
Thanks.
Regards
Angela
@AngelaP09 - No you just make sure that JS function is being loaded onto the page. Make sure you CTRL-SHIFT-R in your browser to clear its cache - it may be holding an old version of the JS file. Maybe re-copy the entire JS code if it's doing weird things and there are no dev console errors.
Hi Bruce
It seems like there is no "gfield_validation_message' when I viewed the page source for the form. I am using Edge browser.
This is what is shown on the page source:
That's a bit weird. You could try changing line 81 from:
if (jQuery(this).children().find('.gfield_validation_message').length !== 0) {
to:
if (jQuery(this).children().find('.validation_message').length !== 0) {
Both classes are applied with validation messages appear in the form.
Hi Bruce
I just tested the form on the latest gravity form 2.5 and the sections are expanded when there is any error. But for my production server on GF 2.4.23, the codes do not work as there is no "gfield_validation_message".
Hi Bruce
I tried the change to "if (jQuery(this).children().find('.validation_message').length !== 0) {" for the GF 2.4.23. It didn't work.
I suppose it works only if it detects the "gfield_validation_message" which is only shown for GF 2.5.
Hi Bruce,
Thank you very much for providing this code, it saved me so much time on a rather lengthy form, and as it was for a charity I needed to keep costs down so no paid for plugins.
I do have one query though is it possible to scroll the user to the top of the section when it is opened, I'm finding at the moment that when a user completes a section and then clicks on the next one to open if the second section is longer than the first the browser window stays in the same position and essentially looks like it has scrolled to a certain point on the new section.
Thank you

Hi @Sibbo100
This is fairly easy to do - have a look at lines 72-74 in the JS code. This will scroll the section to the top of the page when you click on it.
Cheers.
when we use ajax on the form submission, that m_section is getting removed. do we have any solution for this?
Hi, is this code still valid?
I tried it but it doesn't seem to work even in the test link https://test.ingeni.net/

Hi. My apologies - I updated the theme file and it wiped out the enqueuing of the js and css files. It's working now. :)
At the moment, the section do expand when submitting the form.
