Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 99% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   I tried this plugin to make a date on my form display a certain way in notifications; this was to save the client having to look at a calendar every time he received a booking to see what day of the week it was. Handy if you don’t have next year’s calendar. At first it didn’t work but I asked support and their help was so thorough, from numerous replies to my emails, to investigating the issue on the website. I got a satisfactory resolution and the support team got it working. Good customer support makes all the difference so I definitely give Gravity Wiz the thumbs up!

   Using Gravity Forms for several years now, I have been able to save time and create great forms. With simple features that can be used in many ways as well as integrations, it’s a plugin worth trying out!

   Love this plugin, used it so many times. The last time I used it was for custom registration\login and Stripe payment integration and it worked out great.

   It’s simple, low drag, and does everything you need. Perfect user case is you want to create a gravity form that writes to any custom post you have made, along as writing to the CPT’s categories, tags, etc. I use stover the organic gravity form advanced post type add-on. Way better.

   Works without any issues. Saved me a lot of time and headaches auto-generating parent-child relationship for custom post types and front end form submissions saved as children. I needed maybe one hour to get it working as expected, more user case demos may have helped to better understand settings. Thank you again for this plugin.

   Worked like a charm. Instructions helped tremendously (never would have guessed to add the Post title form, which I later hid in the advanced settings as I did not need it). Just needed a selection on the category list, not actually ‘posting’ to the custom post type. The category is where we have certain items set up for presenters that want to speak to ‘pick a city’ ergo the category we use.
