GravityView Advanced Filtering

Description

The GravityView Advanced Filtering addon refines which Gravity Forms entries appear in each GravityKit View, applying conditional rules based on form fields, entry author, submission date, and status. Aimed at sites that publish directories, listings, and panels from forms, the addon allows creating chained filters with AND/OR logic without editing code or manually manipulating SQL queries.

Key Features

• Conditional filters by field
  Define rules based on any Gravity Forms form field linked to the View.
• Chained AND/OR logic
  Combine multiple conditions with logical operators to refine the set of displayed entries.
• Filters by date and author
  Restrict entries by submission period, creating user, or approval status.
• Visual interface in the View editor
  Configure all rules within the GravityView dashboard, without needing PHP hooks.
• Advanced comparators
  Supports operators such as contains, equals, different, greater than, less than, and within range.

Benefits of GravityView Advanced Filtering

• Precisely segmented listings
  Display only the entries relevant to the context of each page or logged-in user.
• No custom programming required
  Replaces filters via gform_query or pre_get_entries with visual configuration in the admin.
• More useful directories
  Ensures visitors find information filtered by category, region, status, or author.
• Simplified maintenance
  Future adjustments to rules are made directly in the View, without touching theme code.

Who Is It For?

• Site administrators who publish directories and listings built with Gravity Forms.
• Agencies that deliver custom panels from form entries.
• Editors who need to segment displays by author, date, or status without turning to a developer.

The extension is intended for projects that rely on complex Views in GravityKit, where the display needs to respond to specific contexts such as page, user, or URL parameters. By moving the filtering logic to the visual interface, the component reduces developer dependency and speeds up delivery of directories, internal catalogs, and dashboards powered by Gravity Forms.
