Gravity Flow version 2.7.9 is now available via auto-update and for download from the account area.
This is a feature and maintenance release that also includes some bug fixes and security enhancements. We recommend that customers upgrade as soon as possible.
Highlights in v2.7.9
New Update Post Step
Gravity Flow v2.7.9 introduces a new ‘Update Post’ step type that allows workflow administrators to create workflows that update the content or status of a WordPress post. The Create Post and Update Post steps also work with Custom Post Types and both require the Gravity Forms Advanced Post Creation (APC) Add-On.
Not sure where to start? We have a detailed user guide that takes you through building a form and workflow with the APC add-on with steps for creating and updating posts.
Approval Step: Revert Enhancements
New Revert Merge Tags
Workflow assignees, including email assignees, can now revert an entry to request changes from a submitter with a single click from their email inbox.
See One Click Approval Links docs for the complete list of merge tags.
New Custom Revert Confirmation Message
The Reverted Confirmation setting allows workflow administrators to display a custom message when the assignee reverts an entry.
