Brand new release: Partial Entries Add-On 1.8

By Gravity Forms Updated October, 22, 2025

Gravity Forms is pleased to announce the release of the Partial Entries Add-On version 1.8. This release contains updates including…

• Added support for aborting saving or updating of the partial entry if $field->set_context_property( ‘is_value_spam’, true ); is used during field validation.
• Added the gf_partial_entries() helper function to return the current instance of the add-on.
• Added the gform_partialentries_abort_save filter to allow the saving or updating of the partial entry to be aborted.

Turn abandoned forms into new leads

Not every visitor finishes filling out your form – but that doesn’t mean their data has to disappear. The Gravity Forms Partial Entries Add-On captures information even before your form is submitted, so you can turn abandoned forms into new opportunities.

Here’s how it helps:

• View partial submissions right inside your WordPress dashboard and spot where users drop off.
• Use built-in conditional logic to decide when partial entries are saved – for example, only after an email field is filled out.
• Learn which forms need attention and follow up with leads before they’re gone for good.
• Gain insights, recover missed conversions, and fine-tune your forms with smarter data.

For more information on setting up and using the add-on, visit the Gravity Forms documentation.

Note: The Partial Entries Add-On is available with the Gravity Forms Elite and Nonprofit licenses. Visit our pricing page for more information on the features and other add-ons available on each plan.
