In July 2013 we moved from forum based support to a ticket based system, with the forums remaining read-only for reference. Since that time we have released more than dozens updates for Gravity Forms, many new add-ons, and numerous add-on updates.
All these updates do sadly mean that a lot of the information contained in the forums is now extremely dated and, in some cases, can cause more trouble than it’s worth. Also, since the demise of pastie.org many of the code snippets shared in the forums have also been lost.
For these reasons we phased out the forums soon after introducing our customer support ticketing system.
In 2018 though, we did introduce a community hub at the request of our dedicated advocates, our Community Forum. This is not an official support channel, but offers community-to-community conversation with folks who may have solved the problem you are faced with now!

Which PayPal Add-On should I use?

IntroductionPayPal CheckoutLegacy PayPal Add-OnsUsing More Than OneOne-time paymentsRecurring payments

Notice: The Gravity Forms PayPal Commerce Platform Add-On has been renamed PayPal Checkout as of version 2.0.
Introduction
With multiple APIs evolutions and various service interactions, PayPal add-ons have had to evolve, and fork, over the last 10 years of Gravity Forms. This makes the question of “which should I use?” a little trickier than most add-ons. We have put together this guide to try and help you with that question.
PayPal Checkout
In most cases, the PayPal Checkout Add-On is what you should use. It is the most up to date, uses the most current PayPal service API, and is the future home of most new functionality as we roll all previous add-on functions into this add-on.
Eventually, this will be the recommended add-on for all use cases, but at this time, PayPal’s Checkout service (previously known as PayPal Commerce Platform) is not available in all markets, so the legacy add-ons do still have a few specific use-cases, as described below.
Legacy PayPal Add-Ons
We classify our PayPal Standard, PayPal Pro, and PayPal Payments Pro Add-Ons as “legacy”, meaning they have been retired but are not end of life yet. The API’s they rely on have been deprecated by PayPal, so future operation is not guaranteed, though PayPal have not specified any termination dates for these services yet.
We still support these add-ons for now, but no new functionality is expected. Any future releases will purely be for required security or bug fix updates. We will eventually stop all support and development for all the retired add-ons, but at this time there is no official date for when this retirement process will begin. Keep an our on our blog for announcements.
Using More Than One
Multiple add-ons can be used with the same form as long as the PayPal/Credit Card fields and payment add-on feeds have conditional logic configured on them. See the Setting Up Conditional Payments in Gravity Forms article for an example.
One-time payments
One-time payments include products, services, and donations.

Why did the Stripe Feed Subscription Name Change?

With Gravity Forms Stripe Add-On version 3.7.2 and greater you may occasionally notice the value of the Subscription Name setting on your Stripe feed changes to include additional numbers and underscores.
This can happen when the add-on finds a plan already exists in Stripe with an ID that matches the current feed configuration and one of the following scenarios is encountered:

The plan amount does not match the submission amount
The plan currency code does not match the submission currency code
The plan billing cycle does not match the feed billing cycle

When the add-on determines the existing plan is not suitable for the submission being processed it appends the current date and time formatted with underscores (e.g. _2020_07_29_10_27_39) to the feed Subscription Name and updates the feed in the database. It then creates a new plan in Stripe based on the updated feed configuration. This change ensures that the customer is billed correctly.

WordPress, Gravity Forms, and GDPR Compliance

What Is GDPR?What Tools Can Help Me With Gravity Forms and GDPR Compliance?Collecting ConsentData RequestsGDPR PluginsFurther Questions and Answers Related To Personal DataCan I prevent the IP address being saved in the entry?Can I encrypt the field values before they are saved to the entry?Can I prevent Gravity Forms saving the entries to the database?Can the user view or edit their own submissions?Are the entries sent to gravityforms.com or other related domains?Does Gravity Forms set any cookies?

What Is GDPR?

On May 25, 2018, new regulations went into place within the European Union (EU) regarding treatment of customer data, known as General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). There are many references available online, you can find one such overview here. We are not going to try and explain the implications or the interpretation of what is required, that is the realm of lawyers and consultants, but we do want to highlight some WordPress and Gravity Forms related tools that may be of interest here.

What Tools Can Help Me With Gravity Forms and GDPR Compliance?

Once again, we’re not lawyers so you’ll want to confirm this with a legal counsel or a subject matter expert as to what compliance means for you, but some of the following tools may prove useful.

Collecting Consent

Gravity Forms 2.4 introduced a Consent field amongst the Advanced Field types. You can review the field here.

If you are also using a feed based add-on with your form, such as MailChimp, you can configure conditional logic on the feed so it will only be processed if the user has checked a consent field. See the MailChimp Conditional List Subscriptions article for more details.

Data Requests

WordPress has added the Export Personal Data and Erase Personal Data tools. As of Gravity Forms 2.4, a new Personal Data tab has been added to the Form Settings to provide integration with these tools. See the article Personal Data Settings for more details.

GDPR Plugins

The following third-party plugins can help with GDPR compliance, and they have integrations for Gravity Forms:

WP GDPR Compliance by Van OnsThe GDPR Framework by Data443 Risk Mitigation, Inc. They also maintain an additional plugin for CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act), CCPA FrameworkDouble Opt In for Gravity Forms by Albert Brückmann

Further Questions and Answers Related To Personal Data

Can I prevent the IP address being saved in the entry?

Yes. As of Gravity Forms 2.4, the new Personal Data tab on the Form Settings provides several settings to control which data is saved. Preventing the storage of IP Addresses is a checkbox option there. See the article Personal Data Settings for more details.

Can I encrypt the field values before they are saved to the entry?

We recommend the using the Encrypted Fields add-on by PluginOwl to configure encryption of the field values.

Can I prevent Gravity Forms saving the entries to the database?

It’s important to note that GDPR does not prohibit saving of personal data to the database, it just requires that you to gain consent before doing so.

While you can’t currently prevent Gravity Forms saving the entries you can use custom code or a third-party add-on to delete them during submission, after the notifications and add-on feeds are processed.

With Gravity Forms 2.4, you can set a Retention Policy to Retain, Trash, or Delete entries for a set number of days. This is available in the Personal Data tab in the Form Settings. On the Personal Data tab, you may also integrate with the WordPress Erase Personal Data tool and control what data is erased from the entry. See the article Personal Data Settings for more details.

Can the user view or edit their own submissions?

Allowing the user to view or edit their own submissions is not a built-in feature of Gravity Forms but is made possible by third-party add-ons such as GravityView by Katz Web Services, Inc..

As of Gravity Forms 2.4, the Personal Data tab of Form Settings allows you to integrate with the WordPress Export Personal Data tool and export chosen entry data to the customer.

Are the entries sent to gravityforms.com or other related domains?

No. Form submissions (entries) are saved to your sites WordPress database. The data would only leave your site if you configure a notification email or another add-on yourself to send it elsewhere.

Does Gravity Forms set any cookies?

Gravity Forms does not set any cookies on the front-end of the site. It does set a cookie on the entry detail page in the admin when an admin views the entry and checks the show empty fields checkbox, that cookie is named gf_display_empty_fields.

Creating Columns in the Form Editor

IntroductionDrag And dropDrag and Drop Not Working?Column Drop ZonesRow Drop ZonesDragging Fields to Create ColumnsResize Columns using Column HandlesKnown Issues or Limitations

Introduction

In this article, we’ll demonstrate how to work with columns in the Form Editor in the Gravity Forms 2.5. With this new streamlined release of the form editor, you create rows and columns of fields simply by dragging and dropping fields into the form editor:

Drag And drop

Fields can be placed on your form using drag and drop actions. Where you drag and drop determines how the columns will be created. We call the destination area that you release at the end of a drag action a “drop zone”.

Drag and Drop Not Working?

Drag and drop column control is only available to forms using Gravity Forms 2.5 standard markup. If you are using legacy markup, or using an older Gravity Forms version, then features like drag and drop will not be available.

If you wish to change to using the standard markup, you will need to disabling the Enable legacy markup toggle, found within the Form Settings → Form Options

Column Drop Zones

To create multiple columns of fields, drag fields into the Column Drop Zones to the left or right of existing fields in the editor.

Row Drop Zones

To create multiple rows of fields, drag fields into the Row Drop Zones to the top and bottom of an existing row of fields in the editor.

Dragging Fields to Create Columns

To create columns in the editor, drag and drop fields directly into a column drop zone and the editor will automatically add the column and re-size existing fields.

Select the Field in the editorGrab the Field HandleDrag the Field over the Column Drop ZoneDrop the Field and the Columns will automatically adjust

Resize Columns using Column Handles

To resize existing columns in the editor, use Column Handles to shrink or enlarge the width of a column.

Select the Field in the editorGrab the Column Handle to the right of the field, the Active Column HandleDrag left to shrink the column widthDrag right to enlarge the column width

Known Issues or Limitations

There is a maximum of 4 resizable columns. You cannot create a fifth.Columns are not supported on forms with legacy markup enabled.The field types of Page Break, Section Break, & Hidden cannot be placed in columns.

wp_rg_form_view

“wp_rg_form_view” refers to the form view database table used by Gravity Forms. The table is named using your site’s database prefix (“wp” is the default) plus “rg_form_view”.
Note: Once Gravity Forms version 2.3 is released, the table will have the new name “wp_gf_form_view”.
Further details for this table can be found viewing the Database Storage Structure Reference document for Gravity Forms version 2.3.

Using the Zapier Add-On

IntroductionPre-RequisitesQuick Getting StartedSetting up the Zapier Add-OnZapier Actions and TriggersZapsZapier HelpWhat Can You Do with Zapier and Gravity Forms?

Introduction
The Gravity Forms Zapier Add-On allows you to integrate Gravity Forms with over 200+ (and counting) online services. Zapier enables you to automate tasks between other online services such as Salesforce, Basecamp, GMail, and over 200 more.
Capture data via a Gravity Form that automatically creates a lead in Salesforce, a new row in a Google Spreadsheet, and a new calendar event in Google Calendar. All from the same single form submission.
The Gravity Forms Zapier Add-On does not replace our existing add-ons such as MailChimp, Campaign Monitor, etc. but does provide you with a way to integrate with services that we may not already support via official Add-Ons. Just as we consider Gravity Forms a swiss army knife for WordPress, Zapier is a swiss army knife for Gravity Forms.
In order to use the Gravity Forms Zapier Add-On you must have a Zapier account. Zapier is a paid service and pricing is based on volume and usage. You can find more about Zapier pricing here.
Unlike most Gravity Forms Add-Ons, the majority of the setup involved in integrating with Zapier will occur on the Zapier side via their customer dashboard. This does mean if you are having an issue with a Zap you have created in Zapier not behaving the way you expected, you may need to contact Zapier support for assistance for issues that occur within their Zapier Dashboard, Zap setup, and behavior.
Pre-Requisites

Download and install the add-on
A Zapier account
Signing up can be done quickly and easily and includes a 14-day free trial which gives you access to every regular and premium app. After the free trial, you can continue to use the free plan or select one of the available premium plans.
SSL Certificate Installed and Configured

Create a Zap under your Zapier account to connect to the form you created. You’ll use the Gravity Forms connection created in Step 2.

Setting up the Zapier Add-On
Use this reference to configure your Zapier Application Connection to Gravity Forms
Zapier Actions and Triggers
You can use your Gravity Forms as both a Zapier trigger and as a Zapier action.
In both cases, the set-up process is done completely from within your Zapier account.
Zaps
To start sending data between Zapier and your forms, create a Zap as normal from within your Zapier account. You’ll be using the Gravity Forms connection.

Zapier Help
Most of your configuration with Gravity Forms and Zapier will take place within your Zapier account. If you run into issues, and you’ve confirmed that Zapier is communicating with the REST API connection in Gravity Forms, you can reach out to Zapier for assistance. You can check out their help documentation here.
