I misread your request and pointed out a tool that gives front-end WordPress post editing. There is still no front-end entry editing available. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/front-end-editing-with-visual-editor#post-350173 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:19:23 +0000 xcellere 350173@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I was using that link as an example of how GF links individual entries on the front end, compared to the "gform_post_id" format that "Update Post" uses in their example:</p> <p><a href="http://www.dcturanoinc.com/?page_id=230&amp;gform_post_id=239" rel="nofollow">http://www.dcturanoinc.com/?page_id=230&amp;gform_post_id=239</a></p> <p>I was under the assumption that there would need to be something like "gform_entry_id" considering how an entry is different than a post. Or I could be completely wrong about that. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/front-end-editing-with-visual-editor#post-350157 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:08:43 +0000 David Peralty 350157@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I was pretty certain the directory add-on allowed you to edit entries, no? Also, I lack the ability to see anything on that link as I don't have permissions. And you are asking in the right spot. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/front-end-editing-with-visual-editor#post-350144 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:02:24 +0000 xcellere 350144@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thank you for the link David. I don't know if this is the appropriate forum to ask this question, but I'll give it a shot: </p> <p>I read through the details of that add-on, and what I'm not understanding is the difference between editing a POST containing a form, and an ENTRY containing a form. I'm using the Gravity Forms Directory add-on to view multiple entries, and then you can click on an entry to view its full details. </p> <p>Would the "Update Post" add-on allow me to edit an entry in the entry's front end address? On my site for example, an entry's address looks like this:</p> <p><a href="http://www.dcturanoinc.com/blog/tracking/entry/2/3/" rel="nofollow">http://www.dcturanoinc.com/blog/tracking/entry/2/3/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/front-end-editing-with-visual-editor#post-350139 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 12:53:14 +0000 David Peralty 350139@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Here it is xcellere - <a href="http://wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-update-post/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-update-post/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/front-end-editing-with-visual-editor#post-350128 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 12:48:08 +0000 xcellere 350128@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>"There is a 3rd party add-on already out there that allows users to display and edit entries on the front end of your site."</p> <p>Which add-on is that? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/front-end-editing-with-visual-editor#post-55724 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 17:05:50 +0000 Carl Hancock 55724@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>We have have never promised specific release dates for future functionality. Development priorities and schedules change. They are never set in stone.</p> <p>This conversation is precisely why I don't like discussing estimated release dates for functionality that is not in active development because they are just that... estimated. They aren't promises and they aren't guarantees. They are preliminary plans. </p> <p>Is this functionality we plan on introducing? Definitely.</p> <p>Was this functionality originally planned for Gravity Forms v1.7? Yes. But so were enhancements that were included in Gravity Forms v1.6.2, v1.6.3, and v1.6.4. </p> <p>We scrapped the original development plans for v1.7 and have opted to release more frequent incremental updates rather than extremely large updates. Which is why some of the features originally planned for 1.7 were actually included in the last 3 feature releases. </p> <p>As for the specific functionality you are referring to, the decision was made not to build this functionality into the core Gravity Forms plugin and instead create it as an Add-On. It was the right decision. Developing an Add-On allows us to update, refine and enhance the functionality on it's own development cycle independent of Gravity Forms itself.</p> <p>Development on this new Add-On will begin after major feature enhancements to the User Registration Add-On are completed. These enhancements are in active development and once completed the developer who is working on them will be spearheading the new front end display Add-On. </p>
