GravityBoard Changelog

This release fixes an issue where deleting attachments from a card could fail with an invalid file path error on sites with custom upload directories, symlinks, or multisite configurations.

🐛 Fixed

• Card attachments cannot be deleted when the site's upload directory uses a custom path, lives under a symlink, runs on multisite, or surfaces paths with mixed / and separators.

This release fixes an issue that prevented boards from loading on the frontend, along with a missing Add Condition button (used to configure conditional logic on a board) in the feed settings.

🐛 Fixed

• Boards remain stuck on the loading screen and never display their lanes or cards.
• The button to add conditional logic rules is missing from the Advanced tab of the GravityBoard feed settings page.

Let your team or community decide what matters most with GravityBoard Voting! Users upvote and downvote board cards to prioritize feature requests, surface winning ideas, or run polls. Set a vote budget per user, restrict voting to specific lanes, and display voting inside GravityView layouts. This release also improves REST API error handling and conditional logic, fixes a regression affecting admin board access, and adds an admin-bypass permission filter.

🚀 Added

• Card voting: Upvote and downvote buttons on every card let users signal what matters most. Each click adds +1 or -1 to a user's weight on that card, so supporters can stack multiple votes behind the ideas they care about. Optional per-user vote budgets (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or all-time) limit how many votes each user has.
• Lane-scoped voting: Enable voting only in the lanes where it makes sense, such as "Ideas" or "Under Review" but not "Done." Cards in restricted lanes show a disabled widget so the vote count remains visible.
• Upvote-only mode: Hide the downvote button entirely for boards where downvoting doesn't belong, such as feature requests or idea boards. Users get a dedicated remove-upvote button to walk their vote back toward zero.
• Voting permissions: New "Who Can Vote on Cards" and "Who Can See Who Voted" settings open voting to a broad audience while keeping voter identities visible only to admins or editors.
• Vote weight and budget indicators: Each card shows a weight badge when a user has stacked multiple votes (up or down), and the vote widget displays how many votes remain in the user's budget so they can pace their support.
• Voters list: Optionally see who voted on a card, with a "(You)" badge next to the current user.
• GravityView integration: Display and collect votes inside GravityView layouts:
  • "Entry Voting" field renders the interactive vote widget in any layout;
  • "Votes Count" field shows a read-only count, sortable in Table layouts;
  • "Voted By" Advanced Filter targets entries the logged-in user has voted on, for Views like "My Voted Ideas";
  • Default View sort by Votes Count, ascending or descending;
  • Vote counts and remaining budget stay in sync across multiple vote widgets on the same page.
• Notification merge tags: Use {gravityboard_votes:count|average|total|up|down} and {gravityboard_voters:emails} to include vote data and voter email addresses in any Gravity Forms notification. Email every voter when a card moves lanes, surface popularity metrics to subscribers, or build admin digests.

✨ Improved

• Shows an error message when the REST API fails to load board data, instead of a silent blank board.
• Enhanced conditional logic:
  • Empty field values are no longer treated as today's date when using is on, is not on, is before, or is after filters;
  • Filters on deleted or missing forms (e.g. when viewing feed settings for a removed form) no longer trigger errors;
  • Admin-only filters (those suffixed :disabled_admin) no longer error out when applied to multi-value fields.

🐛 Fixed

• Administrators losing access to boards on sites that rely on the gform_full_access capability.

💻 Developer Updates

• Added gk/gravityboard/permissions/admin-has-full-access filter to control whether administrators bypass all board permission checks. Read the documentation.

This release adds Gravity Forms Entry Tags support for board cards, fixes date fields showing one day off, and resolves non-admin users not appearing as assignees.

🚀 Added

• Support for displaying Entry Tags as color-coded labels on board cards, which can be edited from the card detail view and used to filter the board.

🐛 Fixed

• Date fields displaying one day off when the WordPress timezone differs from UTC.
• Non-administrator users not appearing as assignees when their roles were selected in board settings.

This release improves the GravityBoard experience with better attachment handling, translation fixes, and a new developer setting for board focus.

✨ Improved

• GravityBoard Attachments metabox now appears consistently on all Entry Details pages when GravityBoard feeds exist for the form, providing better context and discoverability.

🐛 Fixed

• Embedded boards scrolling automatically when the page loads.
• Attachments not deleting from the Entry Details page.
• Some translations not loading correctly.

💻 Developer Updates

• Added boolean $board_settings[settings][auto_focus] setting to toggle auto-focusing of cards, modifiable via the gk/gravityboard/board-settings filter.

This release introduces checklist templates, more granular board permissions, developer tools for working with checklists, along with important bug fixes.

🚀 Added

• Checklist templates: Added the ability to configure default checklist items that are automatically applied to new entries. Templates can be configured in the Advanced settings tab of each board feed. When multiple feeds are active, their templates are merged sequentially.
• More granular board permissions: Multiple roles can now be applied to each board permission, allowing for more granular control over who can access and manage boards.

✨ Improved

• Conditional logic controlling what cards are displayed is now more powerful, allowing you to add AND/OR groups and powerful filtering options.

🐛 Fixed

• Some checklist items were not deletable or editable.
• Fatal error when trying to access board block settings using an invalid or deleted form ID.

💻 Developer Updates

New Action:

• Added gk/gravityboard/checklists/templates-applied - Fires when checklist templates have been applied to an entry, providing the merged collection, entry data, applied feed IDs, form data, and count of items added.

New Methods:

• ChecklistCollection::flatten() - Combines all checklists in a collection into a single checklist with all items merged sequentially. Returns null if the collection is empty.
• Checklist::add_items() - Batch add multiple items to a checklist for improved performance (~50% faster than adding items individually). Validates all items before adding and returns WP_Error if any validation fails.
• Checklists::get_feed_template() - Retrieve the checklist template configuration from a feed's settings.
• Checklists::parse_template() - Parse checklist template text (one item per line) into a ChecklistCollection object.

This patch release restores compatibility for older PHP versions and removes warnings in newer ones.

🐛 Fixed

• Boards appeared empty after updating to version 1.1 on sites running PHP 7.4.
• Inconsistencies in date handling for attachments and notes.
• PHP 8.1+ compatibility warnings in the ErrorCollection class.
• Some translation strings were not being handled correctly.

This release introduces checklists in cards, GravityView integration, and major accessibility improvements.

🚀 Added

• Displayed unsaved changes warnings when navigating away from a modified card.
• Added "Allow All File Types" setting in the Advanced board settings section to control whether attachment uploads bypass WordPress file type restrictions.
• Enhanced keyboard accessibility and focus management throughout the interface.
• Improved drag-and-drop experience with better auto-scroll behavior and visual feedback—if you drag a card to the edge of the screen, it will automatically scroll your board to reveal additional lanes.
• Enhanced the Boards Overview page with improved capability management and user experience.
• Improved modal positioning and responsiveness across different screen sizes.
• Provided better error handling and validation feedback for form submissions.

🐛 Fixed

• Errors when editing a note after submitting a note.
