Gravity Forms Enhanced Choices

Gravity Forms Enhanced Choices is the ultimate utility for site administrators and developers looking to break free from the limitations of static form fields. If you find yourself manually updating long lists of options in your Gravity Forms dropdowns, radio buttons, or checkboxes, this plugin is designed to streamline your workflow and keep your forms accurate without constant manual intervention. By transforming how your form choices are populated and managed, it saves you hours of tedious administrative work while ensuring your users always see the most relevant, up-to-date information.

Use Cases / Who It’s For

Gravity Forms Enhanced Choices is an essential tool for anyone managing data-heavy websites. If you run an e-commerce store, a directory site, or a membership portal, you likely have data that changes frequently—such as product inventories, event lists, or member directories. Instead of manually updating your contact forms or registration forms every time a new item is added to your database, this plugin handles the heavy lifting for you.

For developers, this plugin is a massive time-saver when building custom solutions for clients. It allows you to create “set it and forget it” forms that automatically reflect the content of the site. Whether you are building a real estate listing site where users need to select from current properties, or a booking system that needs to display available time slots pulled from a custom database table, Enhanced Choices provides the bridge between your site’s backend data and your user-facing forms.

Setup / How It Works

1. Install and Activate: Upload the plugin to your WordPress site and activate it through the Plugins menu.
2. Select Your Field: Navigate to your Gravity Form and select the dropdown, radio button, or checkbox field you wish to enhance.
3. Configure the Source: Within the field settings, locate the new options provided by the plugin to define the data source.
4. Map Your Data: Choose the WordPress post type, taxonomy, or custom data source you want to populate the choices with.
5. Apply Filters: Use the available configuration settings to filter or limit the data as needed for that specific form field.
6. Save and Preview: Save your form settings and preview the form to verify that the choices are pulling the correct, live data from your site.
