I keep getting this error: * This form is not being sent from the url where it is supposed to be located. If you are the owner of this form you need to ensure that the 'Form Location' is specified as mysite.com/formsubmit.html. To change this, login to the site, click 'edit' next to the form's name, and then click the 'Basic Information' link to change the form's location.
Even though I have added all of my URL's that contain my sign-up form, when the user navigates to a "bookmark"/anchor point I get the error.
For instance I may have http://www.mysite.com/index.html defined as a location, but when the user clicks on a link to a bookmark/anchor (let's call it "service") lower on the page, that bookmark gets added to the URL so now it looks like the entire url is http://www.mysite.com/index.html#service and the form will fail with the above error.
Do I have to add each and every possible combination of url and bookmark, or is there some way to use wild cards to cover all possibilities?
Thanks

I don't think the #anchor in the URL should be causing the location error. I've got a form that has a link that includes a page anchor and it works fine without adding a url variation including the anchor to the list of form locations.

Have you included www and non-www versions?


This is a good suggestion. Also, please try adding the anchored URLs to the form configuration (Login > Edit > Basic Form Information > Form Location).
