Gravity Forms v1.3.13 Beta 2 Released

Carl Hancock By Carl Hancock Published July 12, 2010

Gravity Forms v1.3.13 Beta 2 is now ready to download and test! This is primarily a bug fix release for Beta 1, although we have added some minor new enhancements that were not available in Beta 1. If you’d like to help us beta test, download Beta 2 and take it for a spin.

Here is what is new in Beta 2:

  • WordPress 3.0 Multi-Site Enhancement: Now you can pre-populate your license key for multi-site installs. You can pre-define the license key in your wp-config.php file by adding define(‘GF_LICENSE_KEY’,’YOUR_KEY_GOES_HERE’);.
  • Fixed issue with Conditional Logic in Beta 1.
  • Fixed issue with Post Status not saving correctly on Post Fields.
  • Fixed issue with Form import involving blank conditional logic criteria.
  • Changed Form List to sort by Form Title.
  • Improved support license key handling and visual aid that license key was entered correctly.


Here is a look at what was added in Beta 1:

  • Import/Export Forms: One of the most widely requested features is finally here. The Export menu has now been renamed Import/Export and Gravity Forms can now import/export forms! Using a friendly XML file format you can now move forms from one site to another using the Import/Export functionality. Please note that this only applies to the form setup itself and does not carry over entries.
  • HTML Block Field: Want to display an image or content in between fields? Now you can with the HTML Block. This new Standard Field allows you to position a block of free form HTML anywhere on your form just like a field.
  • Conditional Form Submit: Now you can show or hide the form submit button based on user input. Found under the advanced Form Settings, this feature gives you more control over how and when your form can be submitted by only allowing it to be done when certain conditions are met.
  • Revised Export Entries: The export entries functionality has been rewritten to help insure compatibility with various server configurations. The export entries functionality no longer saves the export file on the server and delivers it purely via instant download.
  • HTML5 Field Option: We implemented new HTML5 field types in the last release but neglected to include a way to turn these off. Our mistake. We have added an option to the Settings page to control the output of HTML5 markup.
  • Filters Filters Filters: We have implemented a handful of new filters that allow you to control various functionality such as the starting tabindex for your form or the file upload path for file upload fields. View the changelog file for more details and examples.
  • Bug Fixes: We have fixed issues with the date formatting variable in notifications, a conditional logic bug involving post custom fields still storing data even when hidden, and inactive forms will no longer appear on the dashboard widget.

We will be releasing v1.3.13 via automatic upgrade once it has undergone beta testing. Own Gravity Forms and want to give it a try and help us test? Grab a copy on the downloads page!
