Resonanz User Role Permissions for Gravity Forms
Control which WordPress user roles can access Gravity Forms features, without giving out admin accounts.
What it does
By default, only Administrators can use Gravity Forms. That creates a problem when editors or content managers need to build forms or review submissions — you either block them entirely or hand over full admin access.
This plugin adds a Role Permissions settings screen under Forms → Settings. On activation, it gives the Editor role a sensible starting set of capabilities: building, previewing, and deleting forms, plus viewing, editing, exporting, and annotating entries. Entry deletion and site configuration changes are not included by default.
From the settings screen you can turn each individual capability on or off with a checkbox. It is a straightforward way to match Gravity Forms access to what each person on your team actually needs.
