v0.13.0

⚠️ This release contains multiple breaking changes.

This major release leverages new WPGraphQL v1.26 features to enhance our schema and resolvers. The FormsConnectionResolver and EntriesConnectionResolver have been refactored to take advantage of upstream API changes, and a new FormField model, Dataloader, and ConnectionResolver is used to boost performance and flexibility. The schema DX by narrowing down types from their interfaces, we've adding other new features, bug fixes, and code quality improvements.

In this release, we've also removed the vendor directory from the GitHub repository. If you have been downloading the plugin's source code instead of the release zip, you will need to run composer install to install the required dependencies.

Note: As a result of these changes, the following minimum versions have been bumped:

• WPGraphQL: v1.26.0
• WordPress: v6.0.0
• Gravity Forms: v2.7.0

What's New:

• We've added support for the Gravity Forms Block when using WPGraphQL Content Blocks, by exposing the GfForm on the GravityformsFormAttributes.form field.

• We've implemented a complete Model->Dataloader->ConnectionResolver pattern for Form Fields. As a result resolving form field data is significantly more performant and flexible, and our FormField connections are fully Relay compliant.

  • 🚨 Breaking: The deprecated (int) FormField.id has been reinstated as a relay-compliant ID. If you are still using id as the integer database ID, you will need to update your queries to use FormField.databaseId.
  • 🚨 Breaking: Form Field resolvers now return a FormField model instead of the underlying form. While you can update your custom resolvers to access the underlying form via $source->gfForm, it's recommended to rely on the Model's fields for better performance and reliability.
  • Thanks to the new dataloader, we can now more easily and scalably resolve FormFields in more places in the schema. In this release we have:
    • Added the FieldError.connectedFormField field.
    • Deprecated (int) GfFieldWithProductFieldSetting.productField in favor of .connectedProductField.
    • Updated our existing .connectedFormFields across the schema to use the new Dataloader.
    • Exposed SubmitGfFormPayload.targetPageFormFields to help with multi-page form support. See notes below for more information.

• 🚨 Breaking: We've improved the DX for FormField.choices and .inputs by narrowing down the field definitions on the implementing Types. For example, instead of CheckboxField.choices resolving to a generic GfFieldChoice interface, it now resolves directly to `CheckboxFieldChoice.

  Note: If your queries are checking for "impossible" interfaces, (e.g. ... on ListFieldChoice on a CheckboxField.choices query), you will need to update your queries. A full list of breaking schema changes can be found below.

• We've improved the DX and handling of multi-page forms:

  • 🚨 Breaking: PageFields are now paginated to be at the bottom of the previous page, instead of at the top of the following page. H/t @SamuelHadsall.

    Note: If you are currently working around the old pagination on your frontend (e.g. overfetching and post-processing your formFields), you may need to update your code.

  • We've added targetPageNumber and targetPageFormFields to the SubmitGfFormPayload to help with multi-page form support, allowing you to fetch, submit, and validate a single page at a time before navigating to the next page. Check out the updated docs for more information and usage.

• 🚨 Breaking: We've refactored the EntriesConnectionResolver and FormsConnectionResolver classes to use the new API methods available as of WPGraphQL v1.26.0, leading to improved performance and reliability.

  Note: If you are extending these classes in your custom code, you will need to update your code to match the new method signatures.

• 🚨 Breaking: We've removed the following deprecated code. If you are still referencing these in your GraphQL queries or custom PHP, you will need to update your code:

  • Deprecated GraphQL fields: FormsConnectionOrderbyInput.field, GfFieldWithDisableQuantitySetting.isQuantityDisabled. GfSubmittedEntry.entryId. GfForm.button, gfForm.entryId, gfForm.lastPageButton.
  • Deprecated hooks: graphql_gf_form_modeled_data_experimental, graphql_gf_form_field_setting_properties, graphql_gf_form_field_value_properties.
  • Deprecated helper methods: GFUtils::handle_file_upload().

Breaking Schema Changes

• Field FormField.id changed type from Int! to ID!
• Field {$TYPE}Field.inputs changed type from [GfFieldInput] to [{$TYPE}InputProperty]
• Field {$TYPE}Field.choices changed type from [GfFieldChoice] to [{$TYPE}FieldChoice]
• Field values (deprecated) was removed from object type FileUploadField
• Input field field (deprecated) was removed from input object type FormsConnectionOrderbyInput
• Field isQuantityDisabled (deprecated) was removed from interface GfFieldWithDisableQuantitySetting
• Field button (deprecated) was removed from object type GfForm
• Field formId (deprecated) was removed from object type GfForm
• Field lastPageButton (deprecated) was removed from object type GfForm
• Field entryId (deprecated) was removed from object type GfSubmittedEntry

Fixes

• fix: Add missing descriptions to various GraphQL types.
• fix: Check for Submission Confirmation url before attempting to get the associated post ID.
• fix: Flush static Gravity Forms state between multiple calls to GFUtils::submit_form().
• fix: Handle RadioField submission values when using a custom "other" choice. H/t @Gytjarek .
