GravityWP

Hello,

I am not sure if I understand your question. But if you want to filter a subset of entries you can use the filter parameters:
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/gravitywp-count/#how%20do%20i%20use%20values%20to%20filter%20the%20results%3F

If you want to count multiple forms, you can add those as a commaseparated string:
[gravitywp_count formid=65,66]

Did you try to activate ‘Enable Merge Tags in Page Content’? As far as I know it will activate merge tags on all pages.

Hello,

This is not possible with only GravityWP Count. However, it is possible to use mergetags within shortcodes. You will need the {current_post:post_title} mergetag from GravityView and the Post content mergetags plugin from Gravity Perks. Then you can probably do it like this:

[gravitywp_count formid='1' filter_field='1'  filter_value='{current_post:post_title}']

Hi @dapro,

It’s currently not possible to filter on assignees of a workflow step, this would require some custom coding. Feel free to reach out if you need a Gravity Forms expert.

Another alternative is that you determine the assignee based on a value in your form, so you can use the default filter options to count how many entries are at a current step and (in a field) ‘assigned’ to a specific user. You probably need GP Post Content Merge Tags from GravityWiz or GravityView from GravityKit for that to work (e.g. to use Merge Tags inside the count shortcode).

Hi there, glad you like it! While it is a little gem it also has certain limitations…

In case of a dropdown field there is a difference between the choice label and the value. When filtering or adding up a dropdown field only the value will be used.

It seems you are both counting and filtering the same field. Filtering also only works with the value, not the label.

Also, both filter1, filter2 and filter3 will be applied (logical and), which will always result in 0 results when you filter the same field with different filter values.

I hope this helps to find another approach for your challenge!

Hi @rubila69,

for the created_by filter there is an option to use ‘current’ as value, this will count only the entries that are created by the current logged-in user.

This is currently not possible for the filter_value within the current version, but there are workaround: If you want to use the shortcode with a filter on user id in Post Content, you can use the Gravity Forms Post Content Merge Tags Perk from GravityWiz. This makes it possible to use Merge Tags inside Post Content on your site. Your shortcode would then look like this:

[gravitywp_count formid='5' filter_field='1' filter_value='{user:ID}']

But this only works when you install the perk. Other alternatives are to use the shortcode inside GravityView, Gravity Forms Notifications or Confirmations. Those places also allow the use of Merge Tags within the shortcode.

Hope this helps you further!

Hi @pedromag
Thank you for your question. We’ve checked it and found out that with a Gravity Forms Poll Field it works a bit different.

You find a detailed instruction how to get it working here: https://gravitywp.com/doc/poll-field/

Let us know if this helped!

It is possible to use merge tags in shortcodes and GravityView has the {get} merge tag, which will probably do the trick for you: https://docs.gravitykit.com/article/314-the-get-merge-tag

Here is an updated version, which is being actively maintained.

Hello, it is unlikely this is directly caused by the GravityWP – Advanced Merge Tags add-on. (Which is not the same as the GravityWP – Merge Tags plugin, by the way).

Most likely you are using the Gravity Forms Post Fields in your form unintentionally.

If you are still convinced this is caused by the Advanced Merge Tags addon please submit a support request via your GravityWP account. We are happy to help.

Thanks for explaining, but what I meant was there is no calculation checkbox required for the Count plugin to add up a field over multiple entries.

Provided that the form has entries with valid number values in field with field id 1, this should do it:
[gravitywp_count formid="37" number_field="1"]

Maybe you have used the wrong quote characters in the shortcode, I have no idea what really went wrong. But hey, you figured it out somehow, it works, job well done.

Hi, the Count plugin just provides a shortcode and it has no checkbox settings. It seems you are referring to a setting in the Gravity Forms Form builder. But glad you got it working after all.

Hi, I am pretty sure you can do this by using the filter paramaters like this:
filter_field='1' filter_operator='>' filter_value='2022-08-30' filter_field2='2' filter_operator2='<' filter_value='2022-08-01'

Hi Adam, the shortcode won’t work this way as the syntax is not right. I don’t see a way to combine the information in two forms within the count shortcode. This will require a custom coded shortcode. If you want that you can hire us via
aiwos.com or find your own programmer.

Hi Hurlad,

The start_date should be formatted in MM/DD/YYYY format, so I think you should use {date_mdy}. See: https://docs.gravityforms.com/category/user-guides/merge-tags-getting-started/

Also, you need to be sure the merge tag is available within the context were you are using the gravitywp_count shortcode.

Another possibility is to use the relative date format, like ‘-24 hours’ or ‘today’. See:
