Bootstrap Addon For Gravity Forms – WPMonks

Bootstrap Addon For Gravity Forms – WPMonks

Bootstrap Addon is a styling-focused add-on that elevates standard Gravity Forms with seamless Bootstrap 4/5 integration. Designed to work alongside the base “Styles & Layouts for Gravity Forms” plugin, it injects Bootstrap’s responsive grid, form inputs, buttons, and validation aesthetics into your forms—all applied with a single click.

In the WordPress customizer, a live preview pane allows admins to toggle Bootstrap styling on and off, change themes, adjust button styles, enable striped or animated progress bars, and configure field-specific design attributes. Changes are automatically updated in real time, enabling users to fine-tune visual elements before committing. Underneath, the plugin wraps Gravity Forms X-containers and classes with Bootstrap equivalents—like form-control, btn, row/col, and validated CSS classes—ensuring forms adapt responsively to any screen.

Beyond basic styling, it introduces enhanced validation and feedback: errors highlight cleaner, progress bars animate user advancement within multi-page forms, and inputs are visually optimized for usability and accessibility. The underlying technology leverages Gravity Forms’ hooks and filters to apply Bootstrap wrappers during form render, without modifying core plugin files—offering maintainability and safety. From the plugin UI, you can also choose from pre-built theme sets, matching your site branding in seconds.

Released originally in October 2020 and actively updated through August 2024, it’s compatible with Gravity Forms versions from WP 5.x through 6.x. The add-on requires WordPress plus the base Styles & Layouts plugin, then works across unlimited domains and includes one year of updates and support per purchase. GPL versions are also available, though —pro versions typically are bundled in “club” repositories.

In practice, Bootstrap Addon For Gravity Forms delivers polished, modern aesthetic enhancements and mobile-ready responsiveness to form-based workflows—perfect for contact forms, registration flows, surveys, and multi-step forms—without developers writing a single Bootstrap class. It streamlines the design process with live previews, prebuilt themes, and animated feedback mechanisms, ensuring Gravity Forms users can easily create professional and accessible forms aligned with Bootstrap design standards.
