Stop Gravity Forms Update Nags
Agencies often struggle with Gravity Forms because of license renewal reminders to clients. Here is how to fix it.
The Problem with Gravity Forms for Clients
While Gravity Forms is a powerful tool, it often presents too many options to the end-user. Clients logging in to manage their site are often overwhelmed by the sheer number of menu items and settings. This leads to:
- Confusion about where to go to perform simple tasks.
- "I broke the site" support tickets.
- A perception that WordPress is "clunky" or "hard to use".
The Manual Way (Hard)
You could try to use custom code in `functions.php` to hide these menus based on user roles. This requires maintaining code snippets, updating them when the plugin changes, and risking breaking the backend if you make a syntax error.
The Client Calm Way (Easy)
Your client doesn't need to know their Gravity Forms license expires in 30 days. You're managing that. Client Calm captures these notifications before clients see them, so you handle renewals on your schedule.
With Client Calm, you just:
- Install the plugin.
- Go to the Menu Manager.
- Toggle off the Gravity Forms menus you want to hide.
It's that simple. No code, no maintenance.
