Workflow automation and approval routing for Gravity Forms entries.

Gravity Flow spends its autumn on upkeep, with one breaking change in PDF Generator 4.0

wordpressworkflow-automationextensionscompatibilitymaintenance
◆Current state
Gravity Flow is a WordPress workflow-automation add-on for Gravity Forms, in a maintenance stretch after 3.1's Choice Routing. The core 3.1.2 update tightens where Assignee, Multi-User and Discussion fields can go, and fixes upload deletion for logged-out users, a Connected Apps verification fault and two block or JavaScript errors. Around it, the extensions moved in one batch: PDF Generator 4.0 vendor-prefixes its mPDF library, a breaking change for custom code that references mPDF classes, and WooCommerce 1.7.1 adds HPOS compatibility.
◆Where it's heading
The extension family is being kept compatible with what sits around it, Gravity Forms repeaters, WooCommerce's order storage, and third-party PHP libraries, rather than gaining features. Vendor prefixing and HPOS are both about coexisting safely on a busy WordPress install. New workflow primitives have not appeared since July.
◆Prediction
Expect further point releases across extensions, usually batched on one day as on September 30 and October 15. Whether a 3.2 with new step types follows is not visible from these entries.

    PDF Generator Extension 4.0 released

    Version 4.0 vendor-prefixes the bundled mPDF library, which breaks custom code that references mPDF classes directly. There is no user feature here, but it is the one change this autumn that site owners must check before updating.

    WooCommerce Extension 1.7.1 released

    The WooCommerce extension gains HPOS compatibility alongside fixes. That keeps order workflows working as WooCommerce's storage changes, in line with the family's compatibility focus.
