Display User-Submitted Guestbook Entries

  1. I would like to create a very simple guestbook-like form using Gravity Forms. I would like user to complete First Name and Last Name fields and then for their entry to be added to the top of a list (displayed below the form) of others who have "signed" the list. I realize my question is similar to others that have been asked here (i.e. http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/inputs-printed-in-a-page#post-22317 ), but I've seen responses to similar questions that indicate this is functionality Gravity Forms is working on and I want to know if it is something that has been released yet.

    I have tried various other plugins, including DMSGuestbook, and they all require that I include too much information in the form (email address, message, etc). I would really like to create a very simple form using Gravity Forms and have it populate a list of names displayed below the form. I'm not a coder, so I'm looking for a way to do this that, ideally, doesn't require knowledge of CSS/ PHP/ HTML.

    FYI- This is to list names of people who endorse a small, local political campaign.

    Thanks for any help.

  2. This isn't something that is currently a feature. If you want to display form entry data on the front end you would have to write custom code or use the 3rd party Gravity Forms Directory Add-On to do so. You can find it here:

    The alternative is to use Gravity Forms to create Posts and make each guestbook entry a Post that you then display in your theme.
