## Overview

GravityBoard's GravityView integration allows you to:

- **View entries in GravityView** - Open card entries in a GravityView View for detailed display
- **Edit entries in GravityView** - Use GravityView's Edit Entry functionality directly from cards
- **Seamless navigation** - Move between kanban and table/list views effortlessly
- **Maintain permissions** - Integration respects both GravityBoard and GravityView permissions

### How It Works

When a GravityView View is connected to your GravityBoard, links automatically appear in cards allowing users to: 1. View the full entry in GravityView's Single Entry layout 2. Edit the entry using GravityView's Edit Entry feature (if enabled and the user has permission to edit the entry)

## Prerequisites

Before setting up the integration, ensure you have:

### Required Components

- **GravityBoard** - Version 1.1 or higher
- **GravityView** - Active license and latest version installed
- **Gravity Forms** - With at least one form configured

### Preparation Checklist {#preparation-checklist}

- GravityBoard is installed and activated
- GravityView is installed and activated
- You have a form with entries
- You have created a GravityBoard for your form
- You understand basic GravityView concepts (Views, Single Entry, Edit Entry)

## Setting Up Integration

Follow these steps to connect GravityView with your GravityBoard:

### Step 1: Create a GravityView View {#step-1-create-a-gravityview-view}

- In the WordPress admin sidebar, navigate to **Views**
- Click **Add New** to create a new View
- Select your View type (Table, List, DataTables, etc.)
- Choose the **same form** that your GravityBoard uses
- Configure your View layout as desired

### Step 2: Enable Single Entry

- In your View editor, navigate to the **Single Entry** tab
- Configure the Single Entry layout with desired fields

### Step 3: Enable Edit Entry (Optional)

- Still editing your View, scroll to the View **Settings** panel
- Navigate to the **Edit Entry** tab
- Check **Allow User Edit** to enable editing (non-admin users will always be able to edit their own entries)
- Optionally, configure the fields that are editable by clicking the **Edit Entry** tab of the View editor and adding the fields you want to make editable

### Step 4: Connect to GravityBoard

- **Create or edit your GravityBoard feed** for the same form that has your GravityView View
- **Navigate to the GravityView section** in the feed settings - this will appear automatically if GravityView is active
- **Select your View** from the "Select a View" dropdown menu
- **Optional: Enter Embed Page ID** - If your GravityView View is embedded on a specific page, enter that page's ID to ensure correct entry links
- **Save the feed settings**

The "View in GravityView" and "Edit in GravityView" links will now automatically appear in your GravityBoard cards and card menus.

### Step 5: Verify Integration {#step-5-verify-integration}

- Navigate to your GravityBoard (via shortcode or block)
- Click on any card to open it
- Look for the new links in the card:

- **"View in GravityView"** - Opens the Single Entry view
- **"Edit in GravityView"** - Opens the Edit Entry view (if enabled)

## Using Integration Features

### Viewing Entries in GravityView

When you click **"View in GravityView"** from a card:

- The entry opens in GravityView's Single Entry layout
- You see all fields configured in your Single Entry template
- Navigation options allow returning to the View or GravityBoard
- All GravityView features are available (printing, sharing, etc.)

### Editing Entries in GravityView

When you click **"Edit in GravityView"** from a card:

- The entry opens in GravityView's Edit Entry interface
- Only editable fields (as configured) are shown
- Form validation runs on submission
- After saving, you're redirected based on your settings
- Changes immediately reflect in GravityBoard

## Troubleshooting

### Links Not Appearing

If the GravityView links don't appear in your cards:

- **Verify View exists**: Ensure you have at least one published GravityView View for the form
- **Check Single Entry**: Confirm Single Entry is enabled in View settings
- **Same form**: Verify both GravityBoard and GravityView use the same form
- **Clear cache**: Clear any caching plugins or browser cache
- **Check permissions**: Ensure you have permission to view the GravityView

### Edit Link Missing

If only "View in GravityView" appears (no edit link):

- **Enable Edit Entry**: Check that Edit Entry is enabled in View settings
- **Edit permissions**: Verify you have permission to edit entries
- **Editable fields**: Ensure at least one field is set as editable
- **User capabilities**: Confirm your user role can edit entries

## Summary

The GravityView integration enhances GravityBoard by providing:

- **Detailed entry views** beyond what cards can show
- **Advanced editing** with full form capabilities
- **Flexible workflows** combining kanban and traditional views
- **Unified experience** across different view types

By following this guide, you can create powerful workflows that leverage the strengths of both plugins.
