YMMV Plugins

Post Picker for Gravity Forms revolutionizes how you collect post-related data in your forms by adding a sophisticated custom field type that seamlessly integrates with the Gravity Forms ecosystem.
This plugin solves a common problem: allowing users to select from existing content on your WordPress site through forms. Whether you need visitors to choose from blog posts, select products, pick events, or reference any custom post type content, Post Picker for Gravity Forms makes it effortless.
<h4>What Makes Post Picker for Gravity Forms Special?</h4>
Unlike basic dropdown fields that require manual option entry, Post Picker for Gravity Forms automatically populates dropdown menus with real content from your WordPress database. The field dynamically loads up to 50 posts from your chosen post type, displaying them alphabetically by title for easy selection.
The plugin maintains data integrity by storing post IDs internally while displaying human-readable post titles to users. This approach ensures that even if post titles change, your form entries remain accurate and meaningful.

</ul>
<h4>Technical Excellence</h4>
Post Picker for Gravity Forms is built using the official Gravity Forms Add-On Framework, ensuring maximum compatibility and following WordPress coding standards. The plugin includes comprehensive validation, sanitization, and security measures to protect your site and data.
<h4>Developer Features</h4>
For developers, the plugin includes the <code>ppfgf_get_posts_args</code> filter, allowing complete customization of the post query. You can modify which posts appear, change ordering, add meta queries, filter by date ranges, or implement any custom logic your project requires.
<h3>Developer Information</h3>
Post Picker for Gravity Forms is built with developers in mind and includes several hooks and filters for customization.
<h4>Available Filters</h4>
ppfgf_get_posts_args
The main filter for customizing which posts appear in the dropdown. This filter receives three parameters:
<ul>
<li><code>$args</code> (array) – The WP_Query arguments</li>
<li><code>$post_type</code> (string) – The selected post type</li>
<li><code>$field</code> (PPFGF_Field) – The field object</li>
</ul>
<h4>Code Examples</h4>
Limit to Recent Posts 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args, $post_type, $field ) { 
 // Only show posts from last 30 days 
 $args['date_query'] = array( 
 array( 
 'after' => '30 days ago', 
 ), 
 ); 
 return $args; 
}, 10, 3 ); 
“</code>
Change Post Ordering 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args ) { 
 // Order by date instead of title 
 $args['orderby'] = 'date'; 
 $args['order'] = 'DESC'; 
 return $args; 
} ); 
“</code>
Filter by Meta Field 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args ) { 
 // Only show featured posts 
 $args['meta_query'] = array( 
 array( 
 'key' => 'featured', 
 'value' => '1', 
 'compare' => '=' 
 ) 
 ); 
 return $args; 
} ); 
“</code>
Increase Post Limit 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args ) { 
 // Show up to 100 posts instead of 50 
 $args['posts_per_page'] = 100; 
 return $args; 
} ); 
“</code>
Filter by Category (for Posts) 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args, $post_type ) { 
 if ( 'post' === $post_type ) { 
 // Only show posts from specific category 
 $args['category_name'] = 'events'; 
 } 
 return $args; 
}, 10, 2 ); 
“</code>
Field-Specific Filtering 
“<code>php 
add_filter( 'ppfgf_get_posts_args', function( $args, $post_type, $field ) { 
 // Only apply to specific field ID 
 if ( 5 === $field->id ) { 
 $args['author'] = 1; // Only posts by user ID 1 
 } 
 return $args; 
}, 10, 3 ); 
“</code>

Struggling with adding multiple CSS classes to your WordPress blocks? CSS Class Manager simplifies the process with autocomplete suggestions and a dedicated manager for adding, editing, and organizing your classes. Boost your block styling efficiency!
There are two main motivations behind creating this plugin: 
Limitation of Block Style – When applying a block style, only one CSS class can be added to a block. Unfortunately, the block editor lacks the ability to select multiple block styles. To address this, users must resort to the Additional CSS Class(es) inspector control to apply multiple classes. CSS Class Manager provides a powerful manager and an autocomplete inspector control, enabling users to easily add and apply CSS classes to their blocks. 
Poor UX of the Additional CSS Class(es) control – The default control for adding class names is a simple text input. This can be cumbersome, especially when applying CSS classes frequently. With the custom inspector control provided by CSS Class Manager, users can effortlessly add their class names, enhancing the user experience.
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Advanced Autocomplete Control: Streamline block styling with autocomplete functionality for CSS classes.</li>
<li>Effortless Class Management: Easily add, edit, or remove CSS classes directly within the manager interface.</li>
<li>Body and Post Classes: Add custom class names to post body and post containers using body_class and post_class filters directly from the post editor.</li>
<li>Inline CSS Classes: Add custom class names to any selected text inside paragraph, heading and other blocks that support Rich Text.</li>
<li>Theme.json Integration: Automatically include global class names generated from theme.json settings in your class suggestions.</li>
<li>Show the control in its own panel: User specific settings to show the Additional CSS Class(es) control in its own panel.</li>
<li>Add classes without saving to the database: User specific settings to toggle saving classes to the database.</li>
<li>Import and Export: Seamlessly transfer custom CSS class names to ensure consistency across projects.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Getting Started</h3>
<ol>
<li>Activate the plugin within your WordPress setup.</li>
<li>The advanced control will replace the default “Additional CSS Class(es)” and can be found in the “Advance” block settings section.</li>
<li>Adding and selecting classes in the autocomplete field is similar to the tags and categories fields.</li>
<li>To add body or post classes, look for the “Body Classes” and “Post Classes” controls in the Post tab of the post editor (requires custom-fields support). <a href="https://github.com/ediamin/css-class-manager/wiki/Known-Issues#body-classes-preview-in-block-editor" rel="nofollow ugc">See the limitations</a></li>
<li>To add inline classes to the selected text, use the block format tool control in the text formatting tools options (available in blocks that support Rich Text).</li>
<li>To edit and manage class names, click the “Open Class Manager” link or select “CSS Class Manager” from the More Menu.</li>
<li>Import/Export can be done from the manager modal.</li>
<li>Theme.json generated classes are automatically included and can be disabled from the Preferences in the manager modal.</li>
<li>Use <code>css_class_manager_filtered_class_names</code> filter to add class names with PHP files.</li>
</ol>

CSS Class Manager – An advanced autocomplete additional css class control for your blocks


For years I used the Editors Kit plugin for the sole purpose of the CSS Class Management. However, though the years that plugin became a disaster, with lots of garbage added to it.



Thankfully I found this little gem. The only thing that I want to add as a Wishlist, that the Editors Kit has is to export the custom CSS classes in php as well, so we can simply include that code in our plugins/themes, so we don't have to import/export the json files with each site installation.



Nevertheless, this is one of my must use plugins for every site, since I have dozens of custom CSS classes to deal with.



I can not express enough my gratitude, YOU ROCK !!!


I really REALLY appreciate this.
