Plugin conflicting with Gravity Forms

Gravity Forms is a Premium plugin, so unfortunately there is nothing I can do about this incompatibility.

I know there are issues with Relevanssi and Gravity Forms; it’s probably related to the fact that when Relevanssi indexes posts, it disables the Gravity Forms shortcode (because that breaks Relevanssi indexing).

Now, for some reason the file upload triggers Relevanssi indexing, which disables the Gravity Forms shortcode, and thus you see the shortcode instead of the form you should see.

Because I have no access to Gravity Forms, I can’t tell why that is happening and what Gravity Forms does to trigger Relevanssi indexing. I’d look at Relevanssi indexing settings: are there any post types related to Gravity Forms? Make sure Relevanssi is indexing none of those.

Are those uploaded files added to the WordPress media library as attachments? If they are, then having Relevanssi index attachments may also cause this issue; I’d try making sure Relevanssi is not set to index attachments to see if that helps.

Relevanssi is already turning off the gravityform shortcode when indexing. Does Gravity Forms have another shortcode that’s causing this problem? I could add that to the list of excluded shortcodes, so that indexing with “Expand shortcodes” enabled would still work.

Hm, ok, Relevanssi should already disable that shortcode when saving posts.

So sorry, can’t help you further with this, at least not without having Gravity Forms to study this a bit more. Looks like you need to keep Expand shortcodes disabled then.
