How to get data from Gravity Forms from child sites into MainWP (Dashboard-Widget, Sites-Overview or Pro Reports)?

Hello,
so far I’m quite impressed about all the out-of-the-box features of MainWP (we have Pro).

But I have so far not managed to get data from gravity forms installed on the child sites into the MainWP Dashboard “somehow”.

By searching the web I found this:

github.com

mainwp/mainwp-child-reports/blob/master/connectors/class-connector-gravityforms.php

<?php
/** GravityForms Connector. */

namespace WP_MainWP_Stream;

/**
 * Class Connector_GravityForms
 * @package WP_MainWP_Stream
 *
 * @uses \WP_MainWP_Stream\Connector
 */
class Connector_GravityForms extends Connector {

	/** @var string Connector slug. */
	public $name = 'gravityforms';

	/** @const string Holds tracked plugin minimum version required. */
	const PLUGIN_MIN_VERSION = '1.9.14';

	/** @var array Actions registered for this connector. */

This file has been truncated. show original

which let’s me think that there should be some related variables available in the Pro Reports, but here is nothing documented under “docs/available-pro-reports-tokens/”.

To have them in the “Pro Reports” would be a good starting point, but much more useful would they be e.g. as Widget in the Dashboard or in the Sites-Overview as Columns.

So I found this snippet, which could be good starting point?

github.com

uamv/snippets-mainwp-code-snippets/blob/master/snippets/gravityforms-overview.php

<?php

	/**
	 * @title Gravity Forms Feed & Entries Overview
	 * @description For those running Gravity Forms, this (1) checks if Gravity Forms is active, (2) lists each Gravity Form and shows (a) if the forms is active, inactive, or trashed, (b) total number of entries for the form by status (read, unread, spam, trash), and (c) all active and inactive feeds associated with the form.
	 * @type This Code Snippet only returns information from Child Site
	 */

	$gf = array();

	$gf['active'] = is_plugin_active( 'gravityforms/gravityforms.php' );

	if ( $gf['active'] ) {

		$gf['forms']['active'] = GFAPI::get_forms();
		foreach ( $form['forms']['active'] as &$form ) {
			$form['is_active'] = true;
		}
		$gf['forms']['inactive'] = GFAPI::get_forms( false );
		$gf['forms']['all'] = array_merge( $gf['forms']['active'], $gf['forms']['inactive'] );

This file has been truncated. show original

=> Do I need this just to put into the snippets extension and it will be executed on all child sites and display it’s data “somewhere”?

In the end I would need other data, but I can customize this in code myself.

If necessary I could write an extension, too.
(BTW: I’m surprised that there exists no Gravity-Form-Pro-Extension as this form plugin seems to be still the most used by agencies…)

Thank you in advance for pointing me in the right directions.
Bye
Sven

Hey @svenni

Welcome to the MainWP community!

I’ll check with the development team for more information, and we’ll update you as soon as we can.

Hey @svenni

The team has informed me that the code for the Gravity Forms connector is from the Stream plugin, on which the MainWP Child Reports plugin was originally based.

That particular code was never in use.

The team suggested that you open a ticket if you wish, and after that, they collect some additional information from you and give you instructions on achieving what you want.
