Overview
Gravity Forms is designed for site owners who need more than a basic contact form. The editor combines drag-and-drop construction with conditional rules, reusable templates, multi-page layouts, calculations, file uploads, and configurable notifications, allowing one installation to support several data-collection workflows. Entries remain within the site’s WordPress database and can be reviewed, filtered, exported, or routed through add-ons and developer tools. The main planning consideration is that the core plugin is not a standalone hosted form service. It requires WordPress, and official add-ons depend on both the core plugin and the license level attached to the account. Before deployment, verify the hosting stack against the current system requirements, confirm that the required PHP extensions are enabled, and test the exact theme, caching setup, payment connection, email delivery path, and add-ons on staging. Sites embedding forms into non-WordPress pages should treat that arrangement as a custom integration rather than native standalone operation.

Compatibility and setup context

- The full functionality requires the documented PHP extensions ctype, curl, dom, and openssl.
- Official add-ons require Gravity Forms Core and may impose additional minimum core-version requirements.
- Downloading the core plugin and official add-ons requires an active Gravity Forms license, and add-on access varies by license level.
- Test the plugin, theme, caching layer, mail configuration, and any payment or CRM add-ons together on staging before production launch.
