What This Add-On Does
Gravity Forms Logging Add-On gives you a paper trail for every form on your site. This GPL-licensed extension sits on top of Gravity Forms and quietly records what happens to your entries: who submitted them, who edited them, who deleted them, and when. If you’ve ever needed to answer “what happened to this entry?” without guessing, this is the tool that has the answer.
Instead of digging through database tables or trusting your memory, you get a searchable, dated record of form activity. That matters for compliance work, for troubleshooting a form that’s misbehaving, and for keeping an honest account of user data as it moves through your site.
Key Features
- Full activity logging — captures submissions, edits, and deletions as they happen
- Audit trails tied to specific forms, entries, and users
- Query and filter logs by date, user, or form so you’re not scrolling through noise
- Data retention controls to manage how long log records stick around
- Built for debugging — trace exactly when a field value changed or an entry vanished
- Supports compliance recordkeeping where form data handling needs to be documented
Requirements
Gravity Forms Logging Add-On requires an active installation of Gravity Forms, since it extends that plugin’s entry system directly. It’s built to work within your existing Gravity Forms setup — no separate form builder or duplicate configuration needed.
FAQ
Will this slow down my forms if I have a lot of entries?
Logging happens in the background as entries are created, edited, or deleted, so it doesn’t interrupt the submission process for your users. If you’re running high-volume forms, use the retention controls to keep your log tables from growing indefinitely — trimming older records keeps queries fast and your database tidy.
Can I see who edited a specific entry and when?
Yes. That’s the core job of Gravity Forms Logging Add-On. Each logged action ties back to a user and a timestamp, so you can pull up an entry’s history and see exactly who touched it, what changed, and when it happened. This is useful for resolving disputes about submitted data or for confirming that an entry deletion was intentional rather than accidental.
