PDF for GravityView 1.1: Send View PDF with Gravity Forms Notifications

We’ve just rolled out PDF for GravityView v1.1, which includes two awesome new features that’ll take your View’s PDF documents to the next level!

First up, the plugin now supports the all-new independent view type feature added to GravityView 2.24. This new GravityView setting allows you to display the Multiple Entries layout using the Table view type, but the Single Entry layout using the List format (or any other supported type). And now your PDFs will respect the specific format chosen for the Single Entry layout, too.

Displays a screenshot of the new Form Notifications setting added by the PDF for GravityView plugin, with the 'Admin Notification' choice selected. An arrow points to another screenshot showing an email with the PDF attachment included.

You can also include the Single Entry View PDFs as attachments in your Gravity Forms Notification emails. To facilitate this, a new Form Notification field has been added to the PDF View settings that allows you to select the specific emails. Unlike the Share a PDF field, PDFs from linked views are automatically attached to notification emails when Gravity Forms sends them.

Of course, no release is complete without the usual round of bug fixes 👍. Check out the full changelog below for all the details.
