Featured Entries Changelog

Release notes and version history for Featured Entries . The Featured Entries extension for GravityView enables you to mark Gravity Forms entries as “featured” so they appear highlighted and stay pinned to the top of your View.

2.1.1 on May 14, 2026

This release fixes featured entry styling in DIY Layout and Maps Views and resolves two issues that caused featured entries to be filtered out unexpectedly.

🐛 Fixed

  • Custom styling for featured entries did not apply in DIY Layout and Maps Views.
  • The "Only show featured entries" option on the Recent Entries widget was ignored, showing all recent entries regardless of the setting.
  • The gravityview_featured_entries_always_show filter was ignored, causing featured entries to be filtered out by user search even when "Move Featured Entries to Top" was enabled.
