GravityView Advanced Filtering Extension changelog

2026 8 versions

4.9.0 Latest 8 Oct 2026 1 improved1 fixed4 changed

Improved

• A filter on Entry Date, Date Updated or Payment Date whose value is not a date, such as a merge tag for a text field, caused a fatal error on PHP 8.

Fixed

• This release makes filters on Dynamic Lookup, Populate Anything and Nested Forms fields match the name they show, and fixes filters on product choices and on dates whose value is not a date.

Changed

• The Advanced Filter section in the View settings is now announced by screen readers as a named group with its description.
• Filters on a field that stores the ID of a user, post or entry, such as a Dynamic Lookup, Populate Anything or Nested Forms field, now match the name the field shows, and only the records the visitor may see. "Is" and "is not" with a number still compare the stored ID.
• "Is", "is not", "in" and "not in" filters on a choice of a Product, Option or Shipping field found no entries.
• On a translated site, screen readers announced the day, month and year of a date filter in English.

4.8.0 24 Sep 2026 1 fixed7 changed

Fixed

• This release makes conditional logic more accessible and fixes several filtering issues.

Changed

• Note: Advanced Filter now requires WordPress 6.5 or newer.
• Keyboard and screen reader accessibility of conditional logic: focus stays in place when adding or removing a condition, the AND/OR switch is a single control, and date fields and buttons identify the field they belong to.
• Wider Custom Value box in narrow settings panels.
• Filters on product prices matched the wrong entries, especially with currencies that use a comma for decimals or place the symbol first (such as Pound Sterling).
• Filters on a joined form's fields (Multiple Forms) did not work with relative dates such as "yesterday".
• A form: merge tag showed a value from the main form when the target form no longer had that field.
• The page scrolled when a date picker calendar was opened or closed.

4.7.1 20 Aug 2026 1 improved1 fixed1 removed11 changed

Improved

• Enhanced conditional logic:

Fixed

• This release refines the date and choice pickers used by conditional logic, and fixes choice dropdowns on non-HTTPS sites, form: merge tags, and Number field comparisons.

Removed

• Now uses the current GravityView hooks instead of ones deprecated in GravityView 2.55.

Changed

• Date filters now have a clear button, so a date can be emptied without selecting over it
• The date picker's calendar and clear buttons now sit inside the field and level with the value, so a date field is recognizable before reading it
• Dynamic Lookup filters now use the Lookup plugin's own choice API when available (Gravity Forms Lookup Field 1.8 or newer), with the previous integration kept as a fallback for older versions.
• The searchable dropdown for choice-based filters did not load on sites accessed over plain HTTP (non-HTTPS), which prevented selecting values and saving field changes.
• Numeric comparisons on Number fields using the currency format returned incorrect results when the site currency uses a dot as the thousand separator (e.g. Euro).
• A form: merge tag modifier was ignored unless it was written as the first modifier with no spaces around its colon, so filter values such as {:1:maxwords:5,form:4} and {:1: form:4} showed a value from the main form instead of the joined form.
• The condition value dropdown detached from its input when the page was scrolled while it was open.
• Switching a condition between single-value and multi-value operators could save a mismatched value for fields whose choices are loaded on demand.
• Date picker segments were skipped by keyboard navigation, and the calendar button did not indicate which field it opened. Tab now enters the field once, the arrow keys move between segments, and the button's accessible name includes its field.
• Emptying a date resized the whole date field in locales whose placeholder letters are wider than digits (e.g. jjjj).
• Screen readers announced nothing when focus moved between two adjacent choice fields. Each is now exposed as a labelled group naming its own field.

4.7.0 9 Jul 2026 2 new1 improved1 fixed6 changed

New

• New "has NONE of" operator for multi-value filters
• New keyboard-accessible Date Picker.

Improved

• Enhanced conditional logic:

Fixed

• This release adds type-to-search with paginated results to choice-based filters, lets filters compare one field against another, and fixes the "has ALL of" operator on multi-value fields.

Changed

• Advanced filters can now be configured directly on the new View screen, before the View is saved.
• Choice-based filters now offer a searchable dropdown whose results page in as you scroll, so fields with large option lists stay fast and usable instead of trying to render every choice at once. This covers the standard choice fields (Drop Down, Checkbox, Radio, Multi Select) as well as Dynamic Lookup and Populate Anything fields, which draw their options from large external data sets.
• Now uses a fully keyboard-accessible value picker
• Use a field merge tag (e.g. {Threshold:2}) as a filter value to compare two fields of an entry instead of a static value.
• Compare against a field on a joined form (Multiple Forms) with a form: modifier, e.g. {Reorder threshold:1:form:123}.
• The "has ALL of" operator on Checkbox and other multi-value fields matched every entry instead of only those containing all the selected values.

• Admin-only filters (those suffixed :disabled_admin) no longer error out when applied to multi-value fields.
• Field-level conditional logic targeting a field on a joined form (via the Multiple Forms extension) evaluated against the main form's row instead of the joined sub-entry, causing the field to incorrectly render or hide.
