Thanks to a tip form Kevin Dillon, a work-around to the problem with new Google Forms has been identified! Legacy Google Forms are still available IF you start creating the form by opening a SpreadSheet first. Once the spreadsheet is open, select “Create a legacy Form” from the “Tools” menu. The form editor and published URL will be the same as those that had worked prior to the Google Forms update.
Thank you so much for your post. I’ve been looking for something like it for 2 days. You made my day!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I knew what the problem was but couldn’t find the way to create the old embed code.
Thanks so much for this! It worked earlier, but unfortunately Create a Legacy Form option is no longer available. :/
Google made a change recently and the work-around is no longer required. I did a bunch of testing with new forms earlier this week and they worked as expected.
Hi Mike, for some reason since they made that update a few days ago, the new forms I create don’t take on my custom formatting from the plugin. I’m dropping in the URL part of the embed code just as before, and have also tried the live form URL (which actually seems to be the same) but no luck. Any ideas?
You may have to re-visit your custom CSS with the new forms. I had to do this with my Help and Support form. I didn’t look at the HTML too closely but it looks like the structure of the HTML that google is sending is slightly different so if you employed some very specific selectors, they may not work any more and you’ll have to redefine them.
Hi, Mike, Your plugin is excellent. But I have a problem with multipage forms. Only the last page answers are registered. Can I do something to fix it? Can you?
Thanks in advance.
Can you try downloading the latest beta version?

I fixed this issue (I hope) last Friday and it is working on my test cases.
