API to list entries

  1. We bought this plugin to be able to have interaction with boats that arrive at our port. The main goal was to let the captain submit a form with boat details, then process this information and display on our frontpage the ships name and estimated time of arrival.

    Now here is where my problem occurs, I cant find any API Documentation on how to access the form object and fetch entries. After searching the forum I found a link to an extension called "Gravity Forms Directory & Addons". Sadly this plugin don't work. It will not insert any tables no matter how much I try.

    Question; How do I access the Form Object to get X amount of entries that is starred and sort them from according to column Y.

  2. The best source of documentation at this point for your situation will be to look through the code.

    Can you give a more specific example of what you're trying to do exactly? We can show you the code for retrieving entries from one form or multiple forms, then show you how to access those entries. But we'll need more specific information to know exactly what you're looking to do.

  3. Not to hijack, but i'd also be interested in seeing a code example for getting and iterating through entries of a form in php, to generate a custom report/export based on some transformations and summation of submitted field information through lookup tables, etc.

    Thanks!

  4. Custom reporting like this is beyond the support we can offer here. If you take a look through the code you can see all the public and private methods to retrieve the entries. How you process them after retrieving them is completely up to you.

  5. Thanks for the response, Chris, i guess i'll get deep in the code.
