Kelly-

You are brilliant!!  Thanks for the quick answer, that was the problem. As soon as I read your response it made sense, although it would be nice if there was a warning produced at some point to advise of the potential conflict.

Thanks again!

Kelly-

Is there a common reason for the 'Editable Layer' field to go blank in the GeoForm's configuration mode? It has happened to me a couple of time. The 'Fields' section then also goes blank. Interestingly, the application still functions. I've made sure my Web Map has the feature service and have reselected the Web Map in the first step of the GeoForm configuration.

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

The following bug was logged in regards to the issue with the logo:

BUG-000100421: A logo accessed over HTTP in the GeoForm application.. 

The editable layer issue is something that should be investigated further. I'd suggest contacting technical support to see what is causing the issue. Additionally, are there any webmaps that you are seeing these errors from?

Just an FYI (in case you are tracking this bug....)  I just ran into it on my geoform as well...disabling my logo worked....but i'd really like to have my logo on the form. Thx.

Hi Dana,

Is your logo available over https? If you modify the url that was added so that it is loaded over https then you will be able to access the geolocation button and your logo. When working with the geolocation button and chrome, all links should use https.

Kelly - I am SO happy to find this.  I have been losing sleep over iphone and my geoform and this secure image bug was source of my problem.  Not sure why this particular post hasn't shown up in my previous searches so I'll try to add some additional tags.

I had found the http and https problem for accessing the form - in order to get locate me button to work - but that fix didn't transfer to Apple platform.  For iPhones, the locate me button showed up but the "Location could not be found" error popped up whenever you tried to use it.

Looking forward to a permanent fix with this https problem - for me, merely changing the path to my image allowed #location services to work for all platforms.

Thank You!
