# GravityView 1.7 Supports Editing Post Content



### GravityView now supports editing post fields!

In previous versions of GravityView (and in Gravity Forms itself), if you wanted to edit Post Fields, you would see a message like this: ![Before, you could only edit posts from the post page. Boo.](https://www.gravitykit.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Screen-Shot-2015-03-10-at-3.08.31-PM-400x123.png)
*That was no good! Now, you can now edit that post from the Edit Entry page inside GravityView. GravityView supports editing post content in a rich text editor, just like you would expect*[Learn more](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/gravityview/edit-entry/editable-post-fields/). ![Sort View by column](https://www.gravitykit.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/sort-by-column-1024x548.png)
*Users can sort View results by clicking the sort icons at the top of a table. It's*[easy to enable](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/gravityview/filter-and-sort-results/enabling-the-table-column-sorting-feature/) for existing Views, too. **[See sorting in action](https://demo.gravityview.co/blog/view/issue-tracker/)**. We hope you enjoy the new functionality. ---
