Unable to Edit PODS CPT via Gravity View - Edit Entries Option #101

Closed klkwebservices closed 6 years ago

klkwebservices commented 6 years ago

Hi, I am working with a client who I converted from a PODS Form to Gravity Forms (They were losing data due to timeout issue using PODS Form), I am able to successfully add entries to PODS via the PODS/Gravity Forms Add-on, however when attempting to edit an existing entry via Gravity View's Edit Entry Option, the CPT within PODS is not updated, but GF fields are updated successfully via Gravity View.

The Gravity View product is successfully loading the data from PODS when I load the view, however if I change anything within that view, no update appears in the entry for the CPT.

Could this be looked and see if a fix can be implemented or a new feature added to allow editing of PODS data via Gravity View.

Thanks!

Can you invite someone from the Gravity View team to this issue? Since Gravity View is it's own premium product, separate from Gravity Forms, we'd need access to their plugin to perform any additional kind of development to make their product work with our product.

If you could get this to work, it would be great for a site that I am building. It uses front end content and file submission via Gravity Forms, showing the entries to users by means of GravityView tables. I have tried to link the entries to Pods to store them as CPTs in Wordpress and make them searchable with Relevanssi. But content editing via GravityView / Gravity Forms did not result in the Pods being updated...

@jimtrue GravityView uses the default Gravity Forms hooks (i.e. gform_entry_update) when updating an entry so you can listen on those hooks and then update the CPT, without having access to GravityView itself

@naomicbush This would actually be @sc0ttkclark I don't do coding; I do support and route the problems into our GitHub to be handled ;)

Since I"m guessing that's how our Add-on also works, is there any reason to think that GravityView shouldn't follow the same connections or do you think we've got something else going on here?

I'd like to support gform_entry_update, but it'll have to wait for 1.5

Hi @sc0ttkclark, how long does it take approximately until Pods is updated to support a Gravity Forms hook?

Fixed in #86 (ZIP: https://github.com/pods-framework/pods-gravity-forms/archive/feature/skc-fixes.zip)

Also there will be a post with documentation on how to use our new feature that lets you sync Gravity Form entries for a Form to the associated Pod (based on the Form Feed mapping config). This is great because it allows you to sync entries to a Pod even if the entries were added before you added the Pods Feed.
