v3.8.0Latest
October 15, 20267.8 MBScanned
Other
  • This release adds a "Delete all Views" button and a "Use as Page Title" setting for Edit Entry, strengthens security for embedded Views and entry actions (we recommend updating), and keeps your Views when GravityView is deleted. It also fixes many issues with Views built with the [GravityKit MCP](https://www.gravitykit.com/mcp/), View revisions, Custom CSS, DataTables, Edit Entry, and Multiple Forms.
  • #### ๐Ÿš€ Added
  • "Delete all Views" button under GravityKit > Settings > GravityView > Delete Views that permanently deletes every View, including trashed ones, without affecting forms, entries, or settings.
  • "Use as Page Title" setting on the Edit Entry tab to choose whether the Edit Entry Title also replaces the page and browser tab titles (on by default, so existing Views keep their titles).
  • Settings to choose what an embedded View shows when its search value is empty, such as when a `{get:customer}` merge tag has no value:
  • "When the search value is empty" on the View field, which now shows no entries by default ("is not" searches still show every entry);
  • `search_value_empty="none"` in the `[gravityview]` shortcode;
  • "Show no entries" in the View block and the Elementor, Divi, and Beaver Builder modules, selected by default for new block, Elementor, and Beaver Builder embeds (new Divi modules start at "Not set");
  • Existing shortcode, block, and page builder embeds keep showing every entry, and an admin notice lists the pages that use them.
  • #### ๐Ÿ”’ Security
  • Views built or cloned with the GravityKit MCP could show entries their settings were meant to restrict, or allow REST access that was turned off.
  • Page and browser tab titles on Views with an Edit Entry Title could show entry values to visitors not allowed to edit the entry.
  • #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed
  • Issues when deleting GravityView from the Plugins page:
  • All Views, entry approval statuses, and GravityView entry notes were permanently deleted, and embeds of Views with Enhanced Security stopped working after reinstalling;
  • A PHP fatal error was logged ("Class "ActionScheduler_Lock" not found").
  • Search Operators other than "Is", "Is Not", and "Contains" in the View block, the View field, the Elementor, Divi, and Beaver Builder modules, and the `[gravityview]` shortcode matched any entry containing the Search Value, so "Not Equal" and "Not In" listed the entries they should have excluded.
  • A search value of `0` in the `[gravityview]` shortcode or an embedded View was ignored, so the View listed every entry instead of those matching `0`.
  • Issues with Views built with the GravityKit MCP:
  • Edit Entry fields were hidden from users editing their own entries;
  • Unsaved View settings, such as "Show only approved entries", showed as empty instead of their default values;
  • Every value of the "No Entries Behavior" setting was refused;
  • View and field settings turned on or off with text values such as "yes", "no", or "off" were not applied correctly, and some showed the wrong state in the View editor;
  • Single Entry fields were refused on Views whose Single Entry layout differs from the Multiple Entries layout;
  • Cloned Views lost their Multiple Forms joins and unions, Layout Builder row settings, and backslashes in their title and settings.
  • Cloning a View from the Views list removed backslashes from its title and settings, such as field labels.
  • Issues with restoring View revisions:
  • Advanced Filtering conditions, Multiple Forms joins and unions, and Layout Builder row settings were not restored;
  • Restoring a revision saved before GravityView 3.0.0 removed the View's form, layouts, fields, and widgets;
  • On sites that limit revisions, restoring the oldest kept revision did not restore View settings, and the notice showed no date;
  • The revision saved by a restore held the View settings from before it, so the Revisions screen showed the wrong changes.
  • Issues saving Views in the View editor:
  • Publishing a draft View left it as a draft when the View editor showed Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) fields;
  • Saving a draft was blocked until every required ACF field in the View editor was filled in;
  • Saving by pressing Enter, or by clicking a save button while WordPress was autosaving, asked to confirm leaving the page and saved only after confirming.
  • Issues with Custom CSS and styles:
  • Custom CSS could not override the layout's styles, such as table cell padding;
  • On Views using the Vantage theme, Custom CSS could not override many of the theme's styles, and rules starting with the layout's class, such as `.gv-table-view td`, had no effect on the Single Entry page or in the entr
Improved
  • checks when deleting, approving, or rejecting entries from the front end.
  • how embedded Views apply their Search Field and Search Value, so they show only the entries they are set to show (sites using the GravityView Widget for Elementor plugin also need its next update).
Added
  • Views used the Legacy theme instead of the Default theme setting (GravityKit > Settings > GravityView > Appearance), as did Views created with the REST API;
October 9, 20267.5 MBScanned
This release makes "Search Everything" and sorting use what fields display rather than what they store, fixes several security issues around entry visibility and exports (we recommend updating), and resolves many issues with embedded Views, search, multi-page Edit Entry, and combined forms. #### โœจ Improved * Broader "Search Everything" matching that covers what fields display, not just what they store: - Names of users, posts, entries, and database table rows that Dynamic Lookup, GP Populate Anything, and GP Nested Forms fields store by ID; - Labels of choice fields, such as Drop Down and Checkboxes; - Fields inside Repeater fields. * Sorting by fields that store the ID of a user, post, entry, or database table row, which now orders entries by the displayed name, including in Views that combine forms with the [Multiple Forms](https://www.gravitykit.com/extensions/multiple-forms/) extension. #### ๐Ÿ”’ Security * Views embedded with a `{user:...}` merge tag in their search (such as `search_value="{user:ID}"`) showed every entry to logged-out visitors instead of none. * The Entry and Entry Field blocks, the `[gventry]` and `[gvfield]` shortcodes, entry embeds (oEmbed), and the REST API's single entry route could display entries that the View's filters exclude, such as entries hidden by Advanced Filtering conditions or by the "Show only entries created by the currently logged-in user" setting. * Entries not listed on a page could be opened in its lightbox when the page also contained an escaped `[[gravityview]]` shortcode or a secured View embedded without its secret. * The Single Entry page heading of a View embedded in a reusable block could show the title of an entry the visitor wasn't allowed to view. * Search Bar fields restricted to logged-in users could still filter results for logged-out visitors. * A GravityView Search widget left in the WordPress Inactive Widgets area still allowed visitors to search by its fields. * Some values in CSV and TSV exports, including bulk action exports and the attachments manifest, could run as spreadsheet formulas when the file was opened in a spreadsheet application. #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed * Pages with a Search Bar widget loaded more slowly after the GravityView 3.5.0 update, increasingly so with each search field, form field, and user on the site. * Custom CSS that arranged List or Layout Builder entries into columns with the Legacy theme, such as the grid CSS from our documentation, displayed every entry in a single column after the GravityView 3.5.0 update. * Entry links set to open in a lightbox, such as `[gv_entry_link lightbox="true"]`, opened a full page instead in [DataTables](https://www.gravitykit.com/products/datatables/) 3.14.0 and later and in Views that refresh results without reloading the page. * Single Entry Title issues: - Single Entry pages and the entry lightbox had an empty title, and the Breadcrumbs block showed "(no title)", when the Single Entry Title setting was empty (the default) or its merge tags had no value for the entry โ€” Single Entry pages now fall back to the page's title; - Single Entry pages of an embedded View with a Single Entry Slug showed the page's title instead of the Single Entry Title, and GravityView Social Sharing & SEO gave them the page's SEO title and the wrong canonical URL; - Views embedded with a merge tag in their search (such as `search_value="{user:ID}"`) showed the page's title instead of the Single Entry Title and couldn't open entries in a lightbox. * Issues on pages that display more than one View or entry embed: - When the same View was embedded more than once, an embed could show another embed's search, page size, or other shortcode settings, lose its widgets, or refuse to open its own entries in a lightbox; - When the same View was embedded more than once, its Single Entry pages displayed the entry once per embed; - A View lost its Search Bar widget, pagination, and other widgets when it followed an Entry block or `[gventry]` shortcode showing a Map View entry, or an entry displayed through a theme's legacy single entry template; - A View embedded in another View's field, such as a Custom Content field, pushed the parent View's remaining entries outside the View. * Issues in Views that combine forms using the Multiple Forms extension: - With entry caching enabled, Views combining many forms through joins or unions could show another View's entries and ignore searches; - With entry caching disabled, a page showing two Views of the same form, one of which combined other forms, could display the first View's entries in the second View; - Sorting by a field that one of the combined forms lacks ordered that form's entries by entry ID and applied the second sort field as the first; - The Entry and Entry Field blocks and the `[gventry]` and `[gvfield]` shortcodes showed nothing for entries from a form combined through a union. * Issues with the First and Last entry options: - The Entry Link block and `[gv_entry_link]` shortcode set to First or Last could link to an entry from a different View on the same page, an

Other
  • This release adds default values for Search Bar fields, improves screen reader navigation, and fixes several search, sorting, and display issues.
  • *Note: GravityView now requires WordPress 6.5 or newer.**
  • #### ๐Ÿš€ Added
  • Default Value setting for Search Bar fields, which pre-fills the field and filters the View until a visitor searches, offering a picker of choices for fields that have them.
  • "No value" option setting for radio button search fields, adding a choice that clears the field since radio buttons cannot otherwise be deselected.
  • #### โœจ Improved
  • Screen reader navigation:
  • The Search Bar is a search landmark, the entries are a named region, and the View title names both;
  • Pagination arrows and First/Last links have accessible names;
  • Radio, checkbox, date, date range, and number range Search Bar fields announce their field name, which screen readers previously skipped;
  • Links search fields read as a named list of choices, announcing the field name and the active option.
  • Readable query keys in search, sort, and pagination links (for example, `sort[3]` rather than `sort%5B3%5D`).
  • Vantage theme styling of DataTables Views: pagination buttons match the rest of GravityView, the page-length control sits at the end of the toolbar, and focus outlines are fully visible.
  • Keyboard and screen reader accessibility of conditional logic: focus stays in place when adding or removing a condition, the AND/OR switch is a single control, and date fields and buttons identify the field they belong to.
  • Wider Custom Value box in narrow settings panels.
  • #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed
  • The User Activation field showed "Invalid activation key" instead of the Activate User button on multisite subsites.
  • Issues in Views that combine entries from multiple forms ([Multiple Forms](https://www.gravitykit.com/extensions/multiple-forms/) extension):
  • A Search Bar field from a joined form searched the View's main form instead, matching the wrong entries or none at all;
  • Filters on a joined form's fields did not work with relative dates such as "yesterday";
  • Sorting by a field did nothing on sites running Gravity Forms older than 3.0.0.1.
  • Vantage theme issues in the Search Bar:
  • A single-checkbox search field showed its checkbox below the field name instead of beside it;
  • Fields in the Advanced Search section ignored the Search Bar's grid, losing their column widths, spacing, and single-column layout on mobile.
  • Choosing an option in a Links search field cleared the other search fields' values.
  • Views added to a block theme's template or template part through the Site Editor were not recognized as part of the page.
  • The `:diff` merge tag modifier (for example, `{date_created:diff}`) was off by the site's UTC offset, so an entry created two hours ago could show as "2 hours from now".
  • A `form:` merge tag showed a value from the main form when the target form no longer had that field.
  • Filters on product prices matched the wrong entries, especially with currencies that use a comma for decimals or place the symbol first (such as Pound Sterling).
  • The page scrolled when a date picker calendar was opened or closed.
  • #### ๐Ÿ’ป Developer Updates
  • Search Bar fields from a joined form now render the matching `filter_ : ` key.
  • The `gk/gravityview/view/entries/query/sorting-parameters` filter now provides a `form_id` key on each sorting parameter, identifying the form the sort column belongs to.
  • The `{gv_entry_link}` merge tag wrote a deprecation notice to the debug log every time it rendered.
  • Search Bar fields that hold a group of inputs (radio, checkbox, chained select, date, date range, number range, and entry date) now render as ` ` with a ` ` instead of a ` ` with a ` `:
  • Class names, IDs, input names, and the per-choice `.gv-check-radio` labels are unchanged;
  • Custom CSS works with both versions when it leaves the element name off the class (`.gv-search-box`, not `div.gv-search-box`) and targets both field-name elements (`.gv-search-box > label, .gv-search-box > legend`).
  • #### ๐Ÿ”ง Updated
  • [Foundation](https://www.gravitykit.com/foundation/) to version 1.33.0.
Added
  • the `GET /wp-json/gravityview/v1/views/{view_id}/refresh` endpoint, used by GravityKit layouts and extensions to fetch a View's entries, entry total, and page window for a given query, and enabled per layout with the `gk/gravityview/view/refresh/live` filter (documented in `docs/view-refresh.md`).
  • sorting by a joined form's field on any layout with a `sort[ : ]` URL parameter, ignoring keys that name a form the View does not join.
  • the `gk/gravityview/view/output` filter to modify a View's fully rendered HTML before it is returned.
  • the `gk/gravityview/search/field/default-value` filter to provide or override a Search Bar field's default value.

Other
  • This release strengthens the "Prevent Direct Access" setting and fixes several Single Entry, Edit Entry, Custom CSS, and merge tag issues.
  • #### โœจ Improved
  • Views with "Prevent Direct Access" enabled now return a "not found" page at their own URL and are excluded from the WordPress sitemap, feeds, archives, and previous/next links, while still working wherever they are embedded and remaining accessible to administrators and editors.
  • #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed
  • The Edit Entry, Delete Entry, and Duplicate Entry link fields did not appear on a user's own Single Entry when that entry was not on the View's first page.
  • Single Entry pages in Views with joined forms ([Multiple Forms](https://www.gravitykit.com/extensions/multiple-forms/) extension) showed "You are not allowed to view this content." when an Entry Slug was set.
  • Long column headings in Table Views using the Vantage theme did not wrap, overlapping the next column.
  • Custom CSS and Vantage theme styling did not apply in several places:
  • Custom CSS on Views using the Vantage theme had no effect on the Single Entry page unless it used `VIEW_SELECTOR`;
  • Custom CSS written with `VIEW_SELECTOR` or `VIEW_WRAPPER`, and Custom CSS on Views using the Vantage theme, had no effect on the Edit Entry page;
  • The Vantage theme's typography and style settings did not apply to the Edit Entry page.
  • The `{now}`, `{yesterday}` and `{tomorrow}` merge tags showed the wrong time on sites not set to UTC, and did not return UTC when the `:no_tz_offset` modifier was used.
  • The `gravityview/template/field/label` filter had no effect on field labels on the [Maps](https://www.gravitykit.com/extensions/maps/) layout's Single Entry page.
  • #### ๐Ÿ’ป Developer Updates
  • The Edit Entry wrapper (`.gv-edit-entry-wrapper`) now also carries the `gv-container gv-container-{View ID}` classes and a `gv-view-{View ID}-edit-{Entry ID}` id.
Added
  • `gk/gravityview/view/output/direct/404` filter to show the previous message page instead of a "not found" response when a View that prevents direct access is visited at its own URL (return `false`).
v3.3.5Unavailable
September 11, 20267.3 MBScanned
This update restores Address field Country searching and fixes merge tag pickers in the View editor, both broken by changes in recent Gravity Forms releases. #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed * A View setting supplied by an add-on could place unfiltered markup in the View editor. * The View editor showed every merge tag picker open and unstyled on Gravity Forms 3.1.1 and newer. * Address field Country issues: - Searching by country returned no entries submitted since Gravity Forms 3.0.3, which stores the country as its two-letter code; - The Country input added to a View on its own showed the code (for example, "PR") instead of the country name; - Searching Country matched every country whose name contains what was searched, so "US" also returned entries from Australia and Austria. #### ๐Ÿ”ง Updated * [Foundation](https://www.gravitykit.com/foundation/) to version 1.32.1.

September 4, 20267.2 MBSuspicious
Other
  • This release fixes an incompatibility with Gravity Flow on Gravity Forms 3.0 and newer, improves accessibility of the Entry Approval chooser, and includes many other fixes.
  • #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed
  • Edit Entry could not be submitted on Gravity Forms 3.0 and newer when Gravity Flow was active: clicking Update or Next did nothing, with no error and no changes saved.
  • A search field's Input Type and other field-specific settings disappeared from its settings window after saving the View until the field was removed and re-added. This affected fields added from your form, including the Gravity Flow workflow fields.
  • Edit Entry logged an "Unsupported submission flow detected" warning to the browser console every time it was displayed.
  • The Entry Approval field could show and change another form's entry in Views with joins using the [Multiple Forms](https://www.gravitykit.com/extensions/multiple-forms/) extension.
  • Entry Approval buttons showed HTML code instead of the approve, disapprove and reset icons when another plugin loaded its own copy of the Tippy tooltip library.
  • GravityView's bundled Tippy and Popper libraries broke tooltips in other plugins that bundle their own copies.
  • Searching by entry creator on a page showing more than one View could search using another View's settings, returning the wrong entries.
  • The Approval Status chooser is now fully usable with a keyboard and a screen reader, in the Gravity Forms Entries list and in Views on your site alike:
  • Press Enter or Space on an entry's approval button to open the chooser, the arrow keys to move between Approve, Disapprove and Reset Approval, and Enter or Space to choose one. Escape or Tab closes it and returns you to the approval button;
  • A screen reader now says which status an entry is set to, and reports the new status once it changes;
  • Opening the chooser with the keyboard no longer jumps the page to the bottom, leaving the chooser and its entry off screen;
  • The approval button and the three options are now large enough to be a comfortable target on a touch screen.
  • The approval status chooser did not work in a DataTables View until the table was redrawn by sorting or paging.
  • #### ๐Ÿ’ป Developer Updates
  • #### ๐Ÿ”ง Updated
  • [Foundation](https://www.gravitykit.com/foundation/) to version 1.32.0.
Added
  • the `gk/gravityview/edit-entry/form-tag` filter, which modifies the opening ` ` tag of the Edit Entry form.
Removed
  • the `gravityview_entries_list-popper` and `gravityview-field-approval-popper` script handles. The bundled tooltip library includes Popper, so the separate file was never used.
v3.3.3Unavailable
August 29, 20267.2 MBScanned
Other
  • This release fixes multiple minor View editor problems that could lose your widgets or your most recent changes, and cleans up field settings that showed up where they do not apply.
  • #### ๐Ÿ”’ Security
  • Hardens how the Support Port identifies you to our support system.
  • #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed
  • Issues in the View editor:
  • Updating a View before the Widgets area fully loaded removed the View's configured widgets;
  • Checking one of two mutually exclusive field options, such as opening a link in a lightbox or in a new window, left the other option checked, so both were saved;
  • Changes made after a save that another plugin interrupted were missing from the next save;
  • Field settings added by other plugins under their own grouping did not appear in the field settings dialog.
  • The "Open in a lightbox?" and "Open link in a new tab or window?" field settings appeared when configuring Single Entry and Edit Entry fields, where they do nothing.
  • URLs entered with a leading space were rejected as invalid.
  • Fields with a Custom CSS Class were missing the separator line above them on single entry screens using the Layout Builder layout.
  • #### ๐Ÿ’ป Developer Updates
  • #### ๐Ÿ”ง Updated
  • [Foundation](https://www.gravitykit.com/foundation/) to version 1.31.1.
Added
  • the `gravityview/merge-tags/setup` JavaScript trigger, fired on `document.body` before GravityView sets up Merge Tag autocomplete in the View editor. Handlers get the textarea and the `wp.codeEditor` instance, and can call `preventDefault()` to take over the field with their own merge tag picker.
v3.3.2Unavailable
August 21, 20267.2 MBScanned
#### ๐Ÿ› Fixed * Edit Entry ignored changes to fields, and could clear stored values, on forms where a field with its Gravity Forms visibility set to "Hidden" controls conditional logic or dynamically populated choices. * View settings that store multiple checkbox choices, such as the Form Notifications setting added by PDF for GravityView, were discarded when saving a View. * GravityView shortcodes inside code blocks were mangled, showing encoded text starting with `b64:` in place of the attribute values. * Issues with entry approval in the Gravity Forms Entries list: - Clicking the approval toggle did nothing, and choosing a status from its popover reported that the request was invalid on WordPress 7.1; - Confirmation messages did not appear after a bulk Approve, Disapprove, or Reset Approval; - The approval column was added to forms that do not have any entries yet, so the "no entries" message did not line up with the table. * Single entry links opened the list of entries instead of the entry on sites running Formidable Forms Pro, when a Formidable view used `entry` as its detail parameter. #### ๐Ÿ”ง Updated * [Foundation](https://www.gravitykit.com/foundation/) to version 1.30.0.
v3.3.1Unavailable
August 13, 20267.1 MBScanned
This release fixes several issues affecting Views that combine entries from multiple forms, View display settings, and Export Link widget visibility. #### ๐Ÿ› Fixed * Issues in Views that combine entries from multiple forms ([Multiple Forms](https://www.gravitykit.com/extensions/multiple-forms/) extension): - The Entry Notes field showed another form's notes; - Choice-based fields from joined forms were missing the setting that chooses between showing the choice value or the choice label. * The Export Link widget offered a download link to visitors who are not allowed to export on Views with "Prevent Direct Access" enabled or Views that are not published publicly. * Issues with View display settings: - The "Hide the View" and "Hide View until search is performed" settings had no effect on Views using a theme or multiple columns; - Views lost their theme, custom CSS class, and the "Hide the View" setting when the site's theme contained a GravityView template override. #### ๐Ÿ”ง Updated * [Foundation](https://www.gravitykit.com/foundation/) to version 1.29.0.
