This major update includes new field types such as range sliders, toggle fields and improved star rating fields. Automatic updates have also been improved, along with some UI enhancements. The latter is just the first step for their major UI overhaul which will be introduced in version 4.0.

Find out what’s new in Formidable Forms 3.0:

• Separation of Formidable Forms Lite & Pro leading to improved automatic updates
• New form fields: Range sliders & toggle fields
• Improved star ratings: Faster page loads as JavaScript is no longer used
• New API for creating field types
• HTML & section fields with visibility settings
• Beefed up free form builder with phone number, user ID, hidden, number & HTML fields
• Formidable forms are now using CSS grids (12-column layout with classes)
• Easy creation of inline forms
• UI Facelift
• Improved responsiveness of the form builder
• Easier way of selecting form layout sizes
• Better RTL & A11Y support
• New Hooks
• frm_before_get_form: Register & enqueue any scripts
• frm_output_single_style: Insert extra css when styling settings are saved

Apart from above new features and enhancements, they added a new [entry_position] shortcode. This allows you to show incremental content, e.g. an ad after the 3rd entry or a featured first entry in a view. Also, you can now check values in an URL via inline conditionals.
