Gravity Forms Network Entry Manager

A network-activated WordPress Multisite plugin that inventories Gravity Forms data, exports entries to CSV archives, and permanently deletes only an exported entry snapshot.

Compatibility

• WordPress 7.1
• PHP 8.4
• Gravity Forms 3.0.3
• Gravity Forms may remain activated only on individual subsites

What it provides

• Per-site and network-wide form and entry counts.
• One CSV per form in each subsite archive.
• One network ZIP containing a ZIP for each subsite.
• Batched, export-gated deletion that preserves entries submitted after the export snapshot.
• GitHub release updates in the standard WordPress plugin updater.

Operational, security, staging, and limitation details are in readme.txt.

Installation

Install the versioned release ZIP through Network Admin > Plugins > Add New, then network-activate it. Do not activate it separately on subsites.

An installation already running version 1.0.0 must be manually updated to 1.0.1 once. Version 1.0.1 adds the GitHub updater, so later published releases appear as normal WordPress plugin updates.

Publishing an update

1. Update the plugin header version, GFNEM_VERSION, Stable tag, and CHANGELOG.md.
2. Commit and push the change to main.
3. Publish a GitHub release tagged vX.Y.Z.
4. The release workflow verifies the version, builds gravity-forms-network-entry-manager-vX.Y.Z.zip, and attaches it to the release.

The updater accepts only the matching versioned release asset. GitHub-generated source ZIP files are deliberately ignored so WordPress always receives the correct plugin folder.

Safety

CSV archives are for retention and review; they are not deletion-grade database backups. Test on staging, inspect the downloaded archive, and take a production database backup before the first network-wide purge.
