Does the current version of Gravity forms work with wishlist products membership plugin?
I would like to use gravity forms so users can create posts that will only be viewed at a selected membership level.
I know I can create a Posting form that is only viewed at a membership level. I want to make sure the post the user creates also goes to that level.
Gravity Forms post creation doesn't support WishList Member content controls out of the box with a UI where you select which level has access to the post.
HOWEVER if WishList Member stores the content control settings in custom fields, which is most likely does, you could get it working by using the custom fields as long as you 1) what the custom field key is and 2) what the custom field value is supposed to be. So it should be possible. But you would have to find out from the WishList Member team what the custom field value and keys should be if you are setting those manually.

I have seen articles floating around the internet that said there were compatability problems with gravity and wishlist. When I looked at wishlists version log, they make an entry that says "fixed gravity forms issues".
To your knowlege does gravity and wishlist currently get along? I am going to ask wishlist about the custom field keys.
I am not aware of any compatibility issues with Gravity Forms and WishList. The information that you saw was incorrect. Their version log even says they "fixed gravity forms issues" but really there was no issue. It works fine.

Hi All
There was actually an issue, which I identified. The problem was that if you set up a subscription with say 24 hours access, Wishlist was not removing the access after 24 hours. I had lengthy discussions with the Wishlist support guys about this and they identified it as a plugin conflict which, at that time, they couldn't fix. Great to see it's fixed now as it's a good plugin.
There is, potentially, another solution by the way, and that's by using the (premium) WMPUDev Membership plugin: http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/membership I haven't considered this in any detail, but the plugin enables you to set up access roles down to the category level. If it works as I think it might, you could set up GF forms to post to specific categories of posts and then the Membership plugin's access permissions could govern access to those categories.

Here is the current response from wishlist member;
Hey there Mark
Thanks for your message. I have spoken to the development team regarding your request concerning Gravity Forms. We do not use custom keys with WishList Member.
You are not able to accomplish that with the current version of WishList Member but you MIGHT be able to once we release WishList Member 2.5
We don't have a release date for this right now as we are still working away at it, but you can try to set Gravity Forms up in the manner you explained once it comes out to see if it does what you are after.
I have read some threads over at wishlist insider and it seem that if you use a role management plugin they are getting things to work, I do not know much about this, but will do some more research.
