No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.
Readme github.com/kraftbj/gf-rich-text ↗

A standalone WordPress plugin that registers a new Gravity Forms display field, "Rich Text Block." Form creators author formatted content in a TinyMCE editor in the form builder; it renders on the front end with merge tags resolved. Display-only — never collects input, never saved to entries.

Requirements

  • PHP 8.0+
  • WordPress 6.4+
  • Gravity Forms 2.7+

Development

composer install      # install dev tooling
composer lint         # PHPCS (Jetpack standard)
composer lint:fix     # PHPCBF autofix
composer test         # PHPUnit (pure-logic unit tests)

Architecture

  • includes/class-field.php — the rich_text_block GF_Field subclass.
  • includes/class-content-renderer.php — merge-tag + optional shortcode processing (unit-tested).
  • includes/class-content-sanitizer.php — capability-gated wp_kses_post (unit-tested).
  • includes/class-plugin.php — registration, TinyMCE setting, asset enqueues.
  • assets/js/admin-editor.js — TinyMCE ↔ GF field-property sync, live preview, merge tags.

Filters

  • gf_rich_text_block_run_shortcodes (bool, default false) — opt in to shortcode expansion in rendered content.

Manual QA

See docs/QA-CHECKLIST.md. Full end-to-end testing requires a licensed Gravity Forms install.
