Have You Updated to Gravity Forms 2.7 Yet?

Last month Gravity Forms 2.7 became available to all new and existing customers and we’ve been delighted with the response from our community! If you’re yet to do so, simply update the plugin from within your WordPress Admin, or download version 2.7.2 from your Gravity Forms account dashboard.

Here’s what you can expect to find with Gravity Forms 2.7…

• Form Template Library – Our premade, fully-customizable form templates will help you get started in minutes, or can be used as a jumping off point for more complex form builds.
• Form Theme and Block Styling Options – A new front-end form theme, named Orbital, and block styling settings will enable you to easily customize the appearance of your forms, no CSS needed.
• Setup Wizard – A redesigned Setup Wizard will give new customers a user-friendly experience from the get-go.
• Honeypot Field Enhancements – JavaScript will now be used to inject another honeypot field into the form right before it is submitted, helping to identify and reduce the number of spam entries.
• Developer Features – A  significant shift in how we build our products sees us now using React and our new component library to create our back-end UI. This will significantly benefit our developer community, and the experience of building on Gravity Forms.
