Gravity Perks

GP Media Library (v1.2.11)

• Updated how file IDs are retrieved from existing file URLs to use a core WordPress function as it is more comprehensive.

GP Nested Forms (v1.0-beta-8.50)

• Added support for including custom content alongside {Parent} merge tags (e.g. “Name: {Parent:3}”).
• Added support for multiple parent merge tags (e.g. “{Parent:3.3} {Parent:3.6}”).
• Improved {Parent} merge tag. (#18)
• Updated Nested Form field input markup to no longer apply the gform_pre_render filter if the child form is not set, does not exist, or if the Nested Form field is being rendered on the form editor view.
• Fixed issue where {Parent} merge tag that targeted non-existent parent form field would return “undefined” rather than an empty string. This change allows a child form to be used on different parent forms.
• Fixed issue where displayOnly fields (e.g. HTML, Section) were available in form exports.
• Fixed issue where {Parent} merge tag replacement did not trigger Populate Anything population.
• Fixed issue where {Parent} merge tag replacement did not trigger Populate Anything population in legacy jQuery UI modal as well.

GP Populate Anything (v1.0-beta-4.57)

• Added gppa_allow_all_lmts filter.
• Added support for rendering {pricing_fields} merge tag on load. (#44)
• Added new notice at the top of results preview in Form Editor that will show if the query results are limited.
• Improved Entry Edit in WP Dashboard to include selected choice even if it isn’t a valid option return from the Populate Anything results.
• Improved how labels are stored for dynamically populated choices. This improvement will reduce the amount of information being submitted from the frontend.
• Improved compatibility with WooCommerce Gravity Forms Product Add-Ons plugin.
• Fixed issue where unnecessary queries for Object Type properties would be loaded in the Form Editor on load.
• Fixed potential fatal error when non-form value was passed as $form object via gform_pre_render filter.
• Fixed fatal error introduced in 1.0-beta-4.49.
• Fixed issue where the Media Library would not load in Beaver Builder when editing a page with a form using GP Populate Anything.
• Fixed issue where Number and Product Calculations and Nested Forms’ {Parent} merge tag changes were ignored.
• Fixed issue where live merge tags in Consent field’s checkbox label caused a validation error on submission.
• Fixed issue where Live Merge Tags wouldn’t work as intended if inside a Section using Conditional Logic.
• Fixed autofill in Firefox not triggering Live Merge Tag updates.
