Gravity Forms Directory Plugin

This plugin requires Gravity Forms

GravityView is the best way to display Gravity Forms entries

We set out to make a better Directory plugin, and we did it: GravityView takes displaying your form entries to the next level. It is easier, more powerful and more customizable than the Directory plugin. You’ll love GravityView.

How do Directory Search filters work?

If the field is a text field, a text search input will be added that will search only this field. Otherwise, the field choices will be used to populate a dropdown menu search input.

Example: if the “Vehicle Make” field has choices “Ford”, “Chevy”, and “Toyota”, the search dropdown options will have those items as choices in a dropdown search field. If “Ford” is selected and the search form is submitted, only entries with the Vehicle Make of “Ford” will be shown.

To enable a field as a search filter, view “How do I add a field as a Directory Search filter?” below.

How can I translate the plugin?

How do I turn off lightbox grouping?

Add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('kws_gf_directory_lightbox_settings_rel', 'turn_off_directory_lightbox_grouping'); function turn_off_directory_lightbox_grouping() { return 'nofollow'; } 

How do I hide entries from logged-out users?

Turn on the limituser setting, then add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('kws_gf_treat_not_logged_in_as_user', '__return_false'); 

How do I sort by a column?

The sort attribute allows you to sort by an ID. To find the field ID, On the Gravity Forms ìEdit Formsî page, hover over the form and click the link called “IDs” that appears.

If you want to sort by last name, you find the last name id (1.6 for example). Then, you add sort="1.6" to your [directory] shortcode.

Your shortcode could then look something like [directory form="1" sort="1.6"]

I want the URL to be different than `/entry/` – can I do that?

You can! Add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('kws_gf_directory_endpoint', 'different_directory_endpoint'); function different_directory_endpoint($endpoint) { return 'example'; // Use your preferred text here. Note: punctuation may screw things up. } 

How do I change who created an Entry?

You will see a drop-down input titled “Change Entry Creator” in the Edit Entry “Info” box when you are editing an entry on your site. Change the user in the dropdown, then click the Update button to commit the changes.

• Only users with entry entry editing capability will be able to see the drop-down and edit the entry (the gravityforms_edit_entries capability)
• Select a new user from the drop-down, update the entry, and the entry creator will be updated.
• A note will be added to the entry with the following information:
  • Who changed the entry creator
  • When the change took place
  • Who the previous entry creator was

How do I add a date filter?

To add a filter by date, you add either a start_date or end_date parameter–or both–in YYYY-MM-DD format. Here’s an example:

[directory form="14" start_date="1984-10-22" end_date="2011-09-07"] 

How do I find a field ID?

On the Gravity Forms “Edit Forms” page, hover over the form and click the link called “IDs” that appears.

What’s the license?

This plugin is released under a GPL license.

Form submissions are showing as duplicates.

This is a known issue. If the submission page has both a form in the content and the same form on the sidebar widget, the entry will be submitted twice. We’re working on a fix.

How do I remove referrer information from emails?

Add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

remove_filter('gform_pre_submission_filter','gf_yst_store_referrer'); 

How do I use the filters?

If you want to modify the output of the plugin, you can do so by adding code to your active theme’s functions.php file. For more information, check out the add_filter() WordPress Codex page

• kws_gf_directory_output, kws_gf_directory_output_'.$form_id – Modify output for all directories or just a single directory, by ID
• kws_gf_directory_detail, kws_gf_directory_detail_'.$lead_id – Modify output for single entries
• kws_gf_directory_value, kws_gf_directory_value_'.$input_type, kws_gf_directory_value_'.$field_id – Modify output for fields in general, or based on type (text, date, textarea, etc…), or based on field id.
• kws_gf_directory_th, kws_gf_directory_th_'.$field_id, kws_gf_directory_th_'.sanitize_title($label) – Modify the <th> names en masse, by field ID, or by field name (lowercase like a slug)
• kws_gf_directory_lead_image, kws_gf_directory_lead_image_icon, kws_gf_directory_lead_image_image, kws_gf_directory_lead_image_'.$lead_id
• And many more – search for apply_filters and do_action in the gravity-forms-addons.php file

 // This replaces "John" in a first name field with "Jack" add_filter('kws_gf_directory_value_text', 'john_to_jack'); function john_to_jack($content) { return str_replace('John', 'Jack', $content); } // This replaces the "Email" table column header with "asdsad" add_filter('kws_gf_directory_th', 'email_to_asdsad'); function email_to_asdsad($content) { return str_replace('Email', 'asdsad', $content); } // This replaces "Displaying 1-20" with "asdsad 1 - 20" add_filter('kws_gf_directory_output', 'displaying_to_asdasd'); function displaying_to_asdasd($content) { return str_replace('Displaying', 'asdsad', $content); } // This replaces images with the Google icon. // You can modify all sorts of things using the $img array in this filter. add_filter('kws_gf_directory_lead_image', 'kws_gf_directory_lead_image_edit'); function kws_gf_directory_lead_image_edit($img = array()) { // $img = array('src' => $src, 'size' => $size, 'title' => $title, 'caption' => $caption, 'description' => $description, 'url' => $url, 'code' => ""); $img['code'] = ''; return $img; } 

I can’t see the fields in the Add Fields box!

The code is meant to expand all the field boxes so you don’t need to click them open and closed all the time. This works normally in Safari and Chrome (read: good browsers :-P). For some other browsers, it breaks the whole page.

To fix this issue, add this to your theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('kws_gf_display_all_fields', create_function('$content', 'return "";') ); 

I don’t want the values to be formatted

Since 3.6.3, the Directory plugin displays formatted values (like currency). To disable that, add the code below to your theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('kws_gf_directory_format_value', '__return_false' ); 

Bulk Approval/Disapproval of entries doesn’t work for me!

Since 4.1, Bulk Approval requires Gravity Forms 2.2.4 (released August 8, 2017). Please update your Gravity Forms.

Note: This update has only been tested with WordPress 3.2 and Gravity Forms 1.5.2.8 and Gravity Forms 1.6 beta.

2.5.2

• Fixed broken image for lightbox close button (issue #570042)
• Fixed definition list (DL) display mode: each entry in directory view is now wrapped with a dl; single-entry view entries are now wrapped with single dl
• HTML generation fix: <liclass now <li class (thanks @lolawson)
• Improved JavaScript table sorting function (thanks to feedback from heavymark)
• Added option to use links to sort tables instead of JavaScript (jssearch, under Formatting Options)

2.5.1

• Added alternating class of even and odd for rows

2.5

• Improved directory shortcode insertion by checking values against defaults; now inserts into code only non-default items (the default shortcode is now 20 characters instead of 815!)
• Added formatting options for directory & entries: display as table (default), list (<ul>), or definition list (<dl>)
• Added kws_gf_directory_defaults filter to update plugin defaults.
• Added address formatting using appendaddress setting. This will add a column to the output with a combined, formatted address. Use new hideaddresspieces setting to turn off the individual address pieces. Instead of having Street, City, State, ZIP, now there’s one column “Address”
• Added truncatelink option (explained below)
• Added URL formatting filters to modify how links are truncated so you can choose to display the anchor text exactly as you want (the URL itself won’t change). The link text http://example.example.choicehotels.com/hotel/tx173 becomes choicehotels.com, but will still link to the full URL.
  • Don’t show http(s): kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_striphttp
  • Strip www: kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_stripwww
  • Show root only, not the linked to page (example.com/inner-page/ becomes example.com): kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_rootonly
  • Strip all subdomains, including www: kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_nosubdomain
  • Hide “query strings” (example.com?search=example&action=search becomes example.com): kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_noquerystring
• Submit a form using the keyboard, not just clicking the button
• Added filter to change directory pagination settings (results page links): kws_gf_results_pagination
• Fixed issue with malformed pagination link URLs
• Improved “Expand All Menus” checkbox layout
• Discovered an issue: pagination on approved-only entries doesn’t work well. To compensate, you could set your page size to a large number that contains all the entries. This likely will not be fixed soon.

2.4.4

• Added administration menu for Gravity Forms Addons, allowing you to turn off un-used or un-desired functionality. Access settings either using Forms > Addons link or Forms > Settings > Addons.
  • Choose to turn off referrer information, directory functionality, the Addons widget, and Gravity Forms backend modifications

2.4.3

• Should fix issue with Approved checkbox not working in some cases where Admin-Only is enabled. Please report if still having issues.

2.4.2

• Fixed display of textarea entry data for short content (thanks, Tina)

2.4.1

• Included entry-details.php file, required for lightbox viewing
• Fixed issue with single-entry lightbox view – no longer shows admin-only columns if admin-only setting is turned off.
• Fixed Multi-blog single entry view, canonical link and chortling generation

2.4

• Added single-entry viewing capability
  • View single entry details on either a separate page or in a lightbox
  • Entries in separate page have their own permalink (http://example.com/directory/entry/[form#]/[entry#]/)
  • Add entry detail links by having Entry ID column added to directory
• Fixed footer column filters
