Gravity Wiz Weekly #60

Merry Christmas, wizards!

Gravity Perks 2.1 has dropped and we’re already up to 2.1.2. This new version introduces a major improvement to how Gravity Perks communicates with the Gravity Wiz licensing and product updates API. If you haven’t already updated, here’s a download link.

For the rest of the muh muh muh monster updates (including FOUR new snippets and a laundry list of bug fixes for Gravity Forms Populate Anything), read on!

Snippets

Gravity Perks // GP eCommerce Fields // Set Tax Amount Dynamically
A useful example of how you can set the tax amount (and any other eCommerce Fields field property) dynamically.

Gravity Perks // GP Limit Submissions // Disable Limit Feeds when Editing via Sticky List
Gravity Forms Limit Submissions will limit all form submissions by default. Use this snippet do disable limits when editing an entry via the Sticky List add-on.

Gravity Perks // GP Populate Anything // Tiny Mailing List
Send an email to each user who submitted Form A when Form B is submitted. This should not be used to large numbers of notifications. This is an excellent complement to our upcoming Gravity Forms Populate Anything plugin.
