About this plugin

GravityBoard is a handy WordPress plugin that turns Gravity Forms submissions into a visual leaderboard, making it a brilliant pick for educators, community managers, and event organisers who want to gamify engagement on their site.

It integrates directly with Gravity Forms to pull entry data and display ranked results in a clean, customisable table. Compatible with popular themes and page builders like Elementor, it gives your audience a reason to keep participating and coming back for more.

New

Card notes no longer show images loaded from other sites. Such an image could report the IP address and browser of everyone who read the note to whoever added it.
New filters:

Improved

Boards created by an import or MCP ignored the feed defaults until manually updated: nobody could be assigned, @mentions listed nobody, and only administrators had access.

Fixed

A board whose lane field has no choices now guides users how to fix instead of showing an empty space.

Security

This update makes boards easier to use with a keyboard and screen reader, keeps card saves from changing unmodified fields, and fixes issues with attachments, mention emails and large boards. It also improves security.

Removed

Tags could not be added or removed with the keyboard
Feed::DEFAULT_DARK_TEXT_COLOR and Feed::DEFAULT_LIGHT_TEXT_COLOR are deprecated in favor of the same constants on GravityKitGravityBoardIntegrationsEntryTags.

Changed

Large boards render faster: cards that are scrolled out of view in a lane are drawn when they come into view.
A board holding more cards than it can show now says how many of them it is showing, and sets that number by the server's available memory.
Non-editable fields are shown read-only in the card.
Conditional logic in the board settings works better with a keyboard and screen reader.
Saving a card changed fields nobody edited:
A title or description containing characters such as & or ' was rewritten
Assignees were cleared on boards with assignees turned off
Tags were cleared on boards with Entry Tags turned off, or while the Entry Tags plugin was deactivated
A field holding 0 was shown as blank and saved blank
Editing a Label mapped to the same field as the lanes moved the card without the board's lane-change notifications.
Saving only a card's assignees failed on PHP 8 and left an "unsaved changes" warning. On PHP 7 it did not send "Card Edited" notifications.
The card editor:
An optional drop down could not be set back to empty
A radio field showed no choice selected when its stored value was a number
The due date could not be set with the keyboard, and it was shown in month/day order even on sites that use day/month
Saving a note without changing its text showed an error
A file dropped on an existing card was uploaded only with the separate Upload Files button.
Attachments:
The user who uploaded attachemnts was shown as "User #" and a number instead of by name
Uploading a file larger than the server allows showed "No file uploaded." or another unclear message. Such a file is now refused as soon as it is picked, with the maximum upload size
Deleting an attachment required "Who Can Add Attachments", and without it the attachment stayed listed after its file was deleted
Deleting an attachment now also requires permission to view attachments, and a refused delete says which permission is missing.
Mention emails:
Turning off "Enable Mention Notifications" did not stop them
Boards created by an import or another plugin did not send them
A note mentioning several people sent each of them the email written for the first person, with that person's links. Each person now gets their own.
Assignee merge tags such as {gravityboard_assignees:names} showed names containing characters such as & incorrectly.
Keyboard and screen reader use:
Shortcuts such as "?" and "/" did not work until the board had been clicked
Arrow keys and J/K did not move between cards
The card menu ignored the arrow keys, Home and End, and closing it with Escape lost your place
"/" left focus on the filter panel's Close button, and F did not move focus into the fullscreen board
Enter or Space on a vote button opened the card instead of voting
Space did not start renaming a lane
Lane titles, menu items, link buttons and the Tags field showed no focus outline
Screen readers heard "1 cards" and "1 Notes", heard nothing for a card's description icon, and could not tell which note an Edit or Delete button belonged to.
Lanes and cards:
Cards whose lane value matched no lane appeared in an unnamed lane whose actions did not work. They now appear in a lane named "Not set"
A new lane given the name of a renamed lane shared its cards
A new card could take the same position as another card, and the two swapped places after a reload
The drop indicator could flicker while dragging a card over another lane.
Copying the URL of a board filtered by "No assignees" or "No label" opened a different filter.
A card's Activity list did not load its notes on sites using Plain permalinks in WordPress.
The admin board screen told administrators they had no permission to view a board that was switched off.
Conditional logic on product prices matched the wrong entries on sites whose currency uses a comma for decimals or puts the symbol first.
Opening or closing a date picker in conditional logic scrolled the page.
The minimum required WordPress version is now 6.5 and the minimum PHP version is 7.4.
Foundation to version 1.33.0.
Gk/gravityboard/notes/allowed-html sets the HTML a card note may contain. Add img back to allow images in notes.
Gk/gravityboard/data/max-entries sets how many entries a board renders. It receives the cap the server can afford and the feed. The default is set by the request's memory limit, between 250 and 1,000 cards.
Gk/gravityboard/data/pagination changes the pagination data the cards endpoint returns: total, per_page, offset, count and has_more.
Gk/gravityboard/renderer/skip-offscreen-cards turns off drawing cards only when they scroll into view. Safari's find-in-page does not match text in a card that has not been drawn.
Gk/gravityboard/card/writable-fields lists the mapped card fields a card save may write. Removing a key keeps the mapping but stops saves writing that field.
Gk/gravityboard/card/comparison-value sets the form of a field value used to decide whether a card save changed it. The value written is unaffected.
Gk/gravityboard/card/self-managed-keys lists card keys an integration fills in itself through gk/gravityboard/card/data, so the card does not also fill them from the entry.
Gk/gravityboard/feed/field-config changes the editor configuration the board sends for each mapped form field.
An attachment over the upload size limit is refused with the error code gk_gravityboard_file_too_large.
