Gravity Forms has different entry statuses, like when an entry is in the trash. By default, GravityView **only displays active entries** (not spam or in the trash).

![Gravity Forms entries dashboard showing 16,711 total, with 0 spam and trash entries](https://www.gravitykit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/file-DIJmmkFrm0.png)
The `gravityview_status` filter allows you to choose to show entries that are not active
 The filter passes two arguments:

- `$status` string "active" "spam" or "trash" (default: active)
- `$args` array The parameters for the View, such as form ID, page size, sort direction, and field, etc.
