By Gravity Forms Published September 29, 2021

We are pleased to announce the release of Gravity Forms 2.5.11. With this latest release, you’ll find a new UI for License Settings, a number of security enhancements and fixes, and an update to the Gravity Forms branding to reflect our new website.

New UI for License Settings

Under Gravity Forms > Settings, you will now find a new UI displaying your license settings. At a quick glance, you can now see the status of your license, the number of websites you have that are using an active installation of Gravity Forms, the date of your license renewal, and more.

This new UI is aimed to keep customers up-to-date with the status of their licenses and save you logging into your Gravity Forms account dashboard to access the information you need.

Brand Refresh for Gravity Forms

This week has seen the launch of our new website and a complete brand refresh for Gravity Forms. With a whole new look and feel, the website boasts beautiful aesthetics, improved customer workflows, and an overall superior user experience.

The brand refresh also takes our renowned Gravity Forms brand that everyone knows and loves, and gives it a fresh, vibrant, and noteworthy new look. We’re sure you’ll love the brighter colors, cleaner designs, and modern finish as much as we do!

Check out the subtle branding enhancements in your WordPress dashboard once you’ve updated to Gravity Forms 2.5.11.

Update to Gravity Forms 2.5.11

Ready to update to Gravity Forms 2.5.11? Here’s some advice to help ensure a smooth transition…

• How to Update Gravity Forms – If you are already using Gravity Forms version 2.5 (or above) and have background updates enables, 2.5.11 will update automatically. However, if you are yet to install Gravity Forms 2.5, you will need to do so manually. You can do this by either updating Gravity Forms from your site’s plugin page within WordPress Admin or downloading 2.5.11 from your Gravity Forms account dashboard.

• Clear Your Cache – Caching and script optimization plugins and services have been known to cause problems with the functionality of forms when Gravity Forms is updated to the latest version. To counter this issue, we recommend clearing/flushing the caches and the browser cache following all updates.

• Further Resources – For more information on 2.5, and to get the most out of this major update to our form builder, check out the Gravity Forms 2.5 Resource Hub.
