Use Cases and Who It’s For
Gravity Perks Entry Blocks is the ideal solution for anyone looking to turn static form data into interactive website content. If you manage a directory site, you can allow users to submit their business details via Gravity Forms and have those listings automatically appear on a public page. For community managers, it is perfect for creating member profiles, public testimonials, or shared project trackers where users can view the collective input of your audience.
This plugin is specifically built for WordPress site owners who need to display data but lack the time or resources to build custom database queries or complex PHP templates. It is also a massive time-saver for developers who want to provide clients with a simple, block-based interface to manage and display user-generated content without relying on third-party database plugins.
Setup and How It Works
- Install and Activate: Ensure you have Gravity Forms installed, then install and activate the Gravity Perks Entry Blocks plugin.
- Add the Block: Navigate to any post or page where you want to display your entries and add the “Entry Blocks” block from the block inserter.
- Configure the Source: Select the specific Gravity Form from which you wish to pull entries.
- Select Fields: Use the block settings sidebar to choose which specific fields from that form should be displayed to your visitors.
- Apply Filters: Configure any necessary filters to restrict which entries appear, such as only showing entries marked as “Approved” or entries submitted by the currently logged-in user.
- Publish: Save your page or post, and your form entries will be instantly visible to your site visitors.
Similar Plugins
While various solutions exist for displaying Gravity Forms data, Gravity Perks Entry Blocks stands out for its deep integration with the block editor. Alternatives often used for similar purposes include GravityView, which offers a more comprehensive, dedicated interface for building complex views, and various “Gravity Forms to Post” type plugins that map entry data to custom post types. However, for users already committed to the block-based workflow of modern WordPress, Entry Blocks provides a more lightweight and native experience.
