You would have to have a knowledge of PHP and MySQL in order to do so. There isn't currently a built in Gravity Forms function call to display data on the front end.</p> <p>We do plan on adding this functionality in the future, however it isn't in the current version of the plugin. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-comments-in-recent-comments-widget#post-4162 Sun, 21 Mar 2010 07:22:14 +0000 morten 4162@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Let's say I have a Gravity Form named form1. How to I put the latest 5 submissions from form1 to the sidebar?</p> <p>As it is now, there is no means to communicate to the outside what people have submitted via form1 - I can only see this as an admin in the dashboard. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-comments-in-recent-comments-widget#post-4147 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 11:09:34 +0000 Carl Hancock 4147@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I think the terminology is what is confusing us. Gravity Forms create form entries, not WordPress comments. </p> <p>Gravity Forms doesn't have anything to do with WordPress Comments and therefore wouldn't update the Comments section. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-comments-in-recent-comments-widget#post-4133 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 22:47:00 +0000 morten 4133@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I mean comments submitted by Gravity Forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-comments-in-recent-comments-widget#post-4109 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 11:59:21 +0000 Carl Hancock 4109@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>By comments do you mean form submissions (Gravity Forms calls them entries)?</p> <p>If you are referring to WordPress Comments for posts, Gravity Forms has nothing to do with the WordPress Comment system. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-comments-in-recent-comments-widget#post-4102 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:29:11 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 4102@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It seems there is some confusion. As Carl mentioned, Gravity Forms has nothing to do with WordPress comment functionality. If you simply want to show the comments in the sidebar, there are a bevy of plugins and widgets available to do that for you as well as many tutorials on doing it manually.</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=recent+comments&amp;sort=" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=recent+comments&amp;sort=</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-comments-in-recent-comments-widget#post-4099 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:10:47 +0000 morten 4099@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ok, let me rephrase it then: How do I display, lets say the last 5 comments in the sidebar? </p>
