SearchWP Source – Gravity Forms is an official extension of the SearchWP ecosystem that allows you to turn Gravity Forms form entries into fully searchable content within your WordPress site. If your website uses Gravity Forms to collect submissions, surveys, feature requests, or any type of user data, this extension lets you index those entries and make them accessible through SearchWP's powerful search engine.
This tool is designed for developers and site administrators who need the information captured through forms not to remain buried in the admin panel, but to be queryable by both the internal team and the users themselves. A typical use case is a feature request area where visitors can first search to see if their idea has already been submitted before creating a duplicate, encouraging voting and avoiding repeated entries.
The extension integrates natively with SearchWP's supplemental engines. You can combine entries from multiple Gravity Forms into a single search engine and configure exactly which fields should be considered when searching, assigning individual relevance weights to each field. You also have the option to search the entire entry or include notes added by administrators.
Results are returned in a wrapper object \SearchWP\Sources\GravityForms\Entry that makes it easy to iterate over results within your custom templates. Additionally, you can customize behavior through hooks to adapt the wrapper to your specific needs.
With this extension, any Gravity Forms entry becomes an indexable and searchable resource, leveraging SearchWP's advanced search algorithm to deliver accurate and relevant results. It is the ideal solution for sites that rely on forms to capture valuable information and need that information to be easily locatable.
