About Gravity Forms Advanced Post Creation Add-On 1.3.3
The Advanced Post Creation Add-On is made by Gravity Forms. It lets a form submission create a WordPress post, with form fields mapped to parts of the post such as the title, content and other post data, so you can collect articles, listings or reviews through a form.
The file on record is version 1.3.3, released in February 2022, although the title says 1.2. The listing gives no feature list. It extends Gravity Forms, so it does nothing without that plugin. Check the add-on's documentation for the exact fields it can map, then test it on a staging site.
Requirements
- Gravity Forms
Key features
- Posts from submissions
- A submitted form creates a WordPress post instead of only a stored entry.
- Field mapping
- You choose which form fields fill the post's title, content and other fields.
- Works through form feeds
- Set up in the form's settings like other Gravity Forms add-ons.
- Small file
- The package is around 124 kilobytes.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Sites that accept user-submitted posts, listings or stories through a form
- Gravity Forms users who want submissions to appear as real posts
Look elsewhere if
- Sites without Gravity Forms
- Anyone who only needs entries stored and emailed; the core plugin already does that
How to install Gravity Forms Advanced Post Creation Add-On 1.3.3

- 2

- 3

Notes for this product
- Install and activate Gravity Forms first. This is an add-on and cannot run on its own.
Setup: using Gravity Forms Advanced Post Creation Add-On 1.3.3
- Activate Gravity Forms and the add-on. Make sure Gravity Forms is active, then activate this add-on.
- Build the form. Create a form with fields for the title, body text and anything else the post needs.
- Add a post creation feed. In the form's settings add a Post Creation feed and map each field to the post part.
- Test a submission. Submit the form and check the new post, especially its status and author.
Common problems and fixes
Submissions are saved as entries but no post appears
- Why it happens
- The feed is inactive, a required mapping is missing, or a condition on the feed was not met.
- How to fix it
- Open the feed, check the mappings and conditions, and resubmit.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
- Why it happens
- The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
- Why it happens
- Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
- How to fix it
- Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
- Why it happens
- The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
- How to fix it
- Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
