    Given that WordPress allows you to move the wp-content directory, you can't hardcode it's location. There are all sorts of broken issues like not being able to preview forms because of this.

    Affected constants:
    GRAVITY_MANAGER_URL, use WP_PLUGIN_URL

    Affected files:

    • downloads.php
    • preview.php
    • print-entry.php
    • select-columns.php

    If you need access to WordPress functions, or need to find dynamic paths like wp-content, I wrote some code that allows you to do this:

    Thanks for the tip Ptah.
    However, the GRAVITY_MANAGER_URL refers to the URL in our server (so we can trust on the location of the wp-content folder). I will look at the affected files and try to use your snippet.
