By Carl Hancock Published August 18, 2014

Gravity Forms v1.8.10 is now available via automatic update and the customer downloads page. This is a major maintenance and developer focused release that implements multiple fixes and updates to Gravity Forms core, the API and the Add-On Framework.

We recommend all users update as soon as possible. It is important to always keep WordPress, plugins and themes up to date as a matter of best practice.

What’s New In Gravity Forms v1.8.10

• Added gform_enable_shortcode_notification_message hook to allow for disabling shortcode processing of notification messages.
• Added $field_values as a third paramater for the gform_pre_render filter.

• Updated GCommon::is_valid_url() to use filter_var( $url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL ).
• Updated GCommon::is_valid_email() to use filter_var( $email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL ).
• Updated entry details payment information markup.
• Updated complete_payment function to update the entry’s payment_amount, transaction_id, and payment_date for the Payment Add-On.
