Each email opens with a summary block – how many entries arrived and the date range – followed by an inline table of the actual submissions you care about.
Scan a full week of contact form traffic in thirty seconds instead of thirty emails. Works cleanly even when no entries arrive: you get a tidy “no new entries” note rather than silence.
Every digest leads with an entry count and date range, followed by an inline table of the submissions you've selected - readable on desktop and mobile.
Choose the day and time that works for your team, in your site's own timezone. WP-Cron handles delivery automatically - set it and forget it.
Pick exactly which form fields appear in the digest table. No irrelevant columns, no clutter - just the data your recipients need to act on.
Don't wait for the next scheduled run. Hit the Send Now button to build and email a digest immediately - perfect for confirming your setup looks right.
Entry Digest doesn't track usage or send data to third parties. Digest emails go through your own site's wp_mail() - your data stays yours.
Need a digest for a specific date - an event recap or an end-of-campaign summary? Schedule a one-time send for any future date and time. It goes out once, then clears itself automatically, on its own or alongside your recurring schedule.
Slow periods happen, and you decide what they look like. Per digest, choose to receive a tidy "no new entries" note so you know it ran — or stay completely silent until the next submission arrives.
Install Entry Digest from WordPress.org. Gravity Forms must be active – if it isn’t, your settings stay safely available under Tools instead.
Pick a form, add your recipients, write a subject line, choose which fields to show, and set a daily or weekly schedule with your preferred send time.
WP-Cron delivers your digest automatically. Hit Send Now anytime to preview it on demand. One inbox. One clean email. Done.
Run as many digests as you need, and roll several forms into one email. Aggregate your contact, quote, and registration forms into a single morning summary instead of juggling separate notifications.
Send the right digest to the right people. Route the admissions form to your admissions lead and the support form to your help desk — by individual recipient or by WordPress role.
Include only the entries that matter. Set rules like Status is Complete or Budget greater than 1000 - match all or any - and your digest filters itself automatically on every run.
Attach the full period's entries as a CSV or native Excel (.xlsx) file. Recipients get the scannable summary in the email and the complete dataset ready to sort, filter, or import.
Get fast, direct help from the developer. Pro licenses come with priority email support so setup questions and edge cases don't sit in a queue.
Yes – Entry Digest reads entries through the Gravity Forms API, so Gravity Forms must be installed and active for digests to send. If Gravity Forms is inactive, the plugin’s settings remain available under Tools › Entry Digest so your configuration is never lost.
Yes – every Pro feature is free to try for 14 days. No credit card required; just start the trial and you’re in. Use the Send Now button during your trial to see a full Pro digest in seconds instead of waiting for the schedule. If you cancel, you simply drop back to the fully-functional free version — your digests keep working.
Go to Forms › Entry Digest in your WordPress admin (inside the Gravity Forms menu). If Gravity Forms isn’t active, the page appears under Tools › Entry Digest instead.
Digests run via WP-Cron at the day and time you choose, in your site’s own timezone. Weekly digests cover the previous 7 days; daily digests cover the previous 24 hours. Note that WP-Cron fires on site traffic – very low-traffic sites or sites that have disabled the native WordPress cron may benefit from a real server cron job (such as UpTime Robot) to guarantee timing.
Yes. Every digest has a Send Now button that builds and emails it immediately — great for confirming your setup and recipient list are correct before the first scheduled run.
Yes. Each digest has an optional one-time send field: pick a future date and time and the digest goes out once, then the date clears itself automatically. You can use it on its own (choose “One-time only”) or in addition to a daily/weekly schedule. A separate lookback setting controls how far back the one-time send reaches for entries, and defaults to everything since the form was created.
Digests are sent through your site’s standard wp_mail() setup. If other WordPress emails (like new-user notifications) aren’t being delivered, a transactional email or SMTP plugin – such as WP Mail SMTP – usually resolves it. Alternatively, in the plugin’s settings, for the “When there are no new entries” option, make sure you have not selected “Don’t Send Anything”. The plugin logs delivery problems to your PHP error log.
By default the digest still sends a tidy “no new entries” note so recipients know it ran and nothing was missed. If you’d rather stay silent during quiet periods, set that digest’s “When there are no new entries” option to “Don’t send anything.”
The free version covers one form in one digest. Multi-form aggregation and unlimited digests – including the ability to pull multiple forms into a single email – are part of the Pro upgrade.
