RESOLVED-Form keeping data after submit - Even with autofill turned off

Post by sp119 »

Version of script: 2.8.2

What terms did you try when SEARCHING for a solution: form fields not clearing

Write your message below:
I'm using this for a front desk check in system and running it in kiosk mode on a laptop. I have created two custom fields and these fields keep the data after the form has been submitted. Even in private mode with all auto fill/auto complete settings turned off after the form is submitted and you go back to submit again these fields have the previous data already filled out. I have even tried to modify the form to autocomplete="off" for the form and the form elements. It still keeps this data.

Does anyone have an idea of how to make sure form data is not kept after submission?

The big issue is I'm asking for a unique identifier that should not be visible to others and I need to make sure it is not showing when the next person goes to check in at the kiosk.

Any help or assistance/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I was hoping to deploy today (Aug 7, 2019) but until I can get this figured out I will have to delay (which will not make my boss happy!)

Evidently I have a very short memory! I posted this same question this time last year :lol:

And it was answered hereviewtopic.php?f=13&t=6278&p=26591#p26591

Sorry for the repeat question. I figured I should go ahead and let folks know it was answered last year :mrgreen:
