Gravity Wiz Weekly Update #26
Salutations, wizards!
We’re going to try something a little different this week. Rather than only covering what we’re doing at Gravity Wiz, we want to share a bit more about what is going on in the Gravity Forms ecosystem as a whole. Brace yourself for an action-packed update!
Highlights
Gravity Forms 2.3; Coming Soon to a WordPress Near You!
Gravity Forms 2.3 Beta 1 is out. Take a closer look at the feature highlights in our first Gravity Forms release review post.
Introducing Pipe Video Recording for Gravity Forms
A new add-on that allows your users to record video directly from their webcam into your Gravity Form using the Pipe Video Recording Platform. This works with mobile devices! Uses? Have applicants record a quick introduction video for your job applications. Allow your field technicians record a video when reporting an issue on the job. This is an awesome add-on!
Introducing Webhooks for Gravity Forms
Gravity Forms now has an official add-on for integrating with all the 3rd party services that it doesn’t already have official add-ons for. It supports conditional logic so you can trigger the webhook when only certain conditions are met. This is just the 1.0 so keep an eye on this plugin. It’s going to get a lot more flexible and a lot more powerful.
