Gravity Forms & JetSloth – Much More Than Just WordPress Forms
If you follow our blog, you will probably have noticed that Gravity Forms has been our first choice when it comes to WordPress form plugins for many years. This is simply because we have been using it ever since we started working with WordPress. Some competing plugins were not even available back then. But did you know that you can do much more than just contact forms with Gravity Forms using JetSloth?
What is JetSloth?
Gravity Forms probably doesn’t need any further explanation, does it? JetSloth, on the other hand, offers six officially certified add-ons that significantly extend the functionality of the form plugin. This includes Gravity Forms Tooltips, Color Picker, Collapsible Sections, Bulk Actions, Images Choices and Fetcher, their latest add-on.
In the following, let’s take a look at four examples of what you can do with the two plugins.
Custom Form Designs
JetSloth offers not only add-ons but also great tutorials including the required CSS and JavaScript code and on how you can turn rather boring forms into eye-catching ones. Learn how to easily create custom form designs (tutorial) with Gravity Forms.
Tooltips with Images & Videos
JetSloth has recently added support for HTML markup (tutorial) and YouTube embeds to its Gravity Forms Tooltips add-on. For example, you can add headings, images, and more to tooltips to increase form conversion rates.
Form Animations
You can also easily apply CSS animations (tutorial) to your Gravity Forms to create stunning visual effects, including a subtle wiggle animation for submit buttons, a pulse effect for form fields, and dynamic animated gradients for form backgrounds.
