GWW 262: 13 Years of Gravity Wiz

Greetings, wizards!

I just got back from a week in my wife’s hometown of Orange County. You might not have noticed I was gone—aside from the missing newsletter last week—and that’s exactly how it should be. Gravity Wiz is growing into a truly autonomous operation, no longer limited by my own capacity. That’s a win not just for me, but for all of us.

Now let’s catch up on everything that happened at Gravity Wiz while I was away.

New Release: GP Inventory 1.0

GPI 1.0 is here and if it had a theme it’d be 100 Ways to View Your Inventory.

The new Inventory Dashboard gives you a comprehensive view of all your inventory-enabled fields. No more clicking through each fields’ settings to see what’s available.

We’ve added the Inventory Shortcode to core—a powerful tool for displaying inventory-related info anywhere shortcodes are supported. Need to email customers when stock is running low? The Inventory Shortcode makes it easy to show what’s left, right in the message.

Top Picks: Product Highlights

Here are a few of this week’s incantations that deserve your attention.

GP Populate Anything: You can now populate Image Choice fields from ACF Image fields. How magical!

GP Limit Checkboxes: We’ve improved support for conditional logic and spanned limits (e.g. the ability to apply shared limits to multiple Checkbox fields).

GC Google Sheets: This connection is more performant than ever with a series of improvements around caching and rate limiting.

Don’t forget: the full changelog (below) is always worth a read through.

How To: Send Gravity Forms Data to Notion

Wave your wands and poof — teleport your Gravity Forms data straight into Notion! Gravity Connect Notion allows you to send submissions to your favorite Notion database, format the page with merge tag magic, and even sync entry changes like a spellbound assistant.

Whether you’re collecting job apps, project requests, or potion recipes (yes, please), start conjuring structure out of form chaos.

Milestone: 13 Years? Gee Wiz!

Today marks 13 years since the Gravity Wiz website first launched.

What started in 2012 as my own little hub for helpful Gravity Forms content has transformed into a band of merry wizards with multiple powerhouse product suites powering hundreds of thousands of websites around the world.

A big shoutout to our amazing customers—you make the magic possible.

Take a trip down memory lane:

Updated: Show Only Updated Fields in {all_fields}

We updated our free All Fields Template plugin with a new modifier that allows you to display only the fields that have been updated in the {all_fields} merge tag. Try {all_fields:updated} on for size.

Perfect for confirmations and emails after entry updates.
