description

I presented this to our Oklahoma City WordPress meetup group in August of 2014. Gravity Forms is a must-have plugin for serious WordPress users. It's a contact form and so much more. Many WordPress people use the add-ons to integrate newsletter sign-ups, making complicated multi-page forms, surveys and more. Looking through this presentation will give you some information on what the current add-ons and pricing is for this plugin.

Conditional Logic Video

I found this short video from Worship TimesOn YouTube very helpful

What is Conditional Logic and How Do I Use It With Gravity Forms?

It configures your form to show or hide fields, sections, pages or even the submit button based on user selections. This allows you to easily control what information your user is asked to provide on your WordPress powered site and tailor the form specifically to their needs.

Ready Classes for Easy Styling

In Gravity Forms 1.5 we're adding some new "Ready Classes". Using these new classes, you can easily create more advanced alternative layouts for the fields in your forms.Essentially, Ready Classes are class names that you can add to the parent element surrounding each field to take advantage of pre-defined styles included in the default form stylesheet.

How to Use Ready ClassesTo add a Ready Class to a field, just edit your form in the Form Builder and then select the field you want to add the classes to. Under the "Advanced" tab, you’ll see an input called "CSS class name". Add the Ready Class name or names you want to add to the field here and then save the form.
