 * > **[Download Version 2.5](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/gravity-forms-addons.2.5.zip)**
 * **Gravity Forms Directory & Addons Version 2.5 is ready for testing**: please
   download and install, and leave a comment on this thread if you encounter any
   bugs.
 * **Version 2.5 improvements:**
    -  Improved directory shortcode insertion by checking values against defaults;
      now inserts into code only non-default items (the default shortcode is now
      20 characters instead of 815!)
    - Added formatting options for directory & entries: display as table (default),
      list (`<ul>`), or definition list (`<dl>`)
    -  Added `kws_gf_directory_defaults` filter to update plugin defaults.
    -  Added address formatting using `appendaddress` setting. This will add a column
      to the output with a combined, formatted address. Use new `hideaddresspieces`
      setting to turn off the individual address pieces. Instead of having Street,
      City, State, ZIP, now there’s one column “Address”
    -  Improved output for `fileupload` files – now able to show as images like 
      with post images.
    -  Added `truncatelink` option (explained below)
    -  Added URL formatting filters to modify how links are truncated so you can
      choose to display the anchor text exactly as you want (the URL itself won’t
      change). The link text `http://example.example.choicehotels.com/hotel/tx173`
      becomes `choicehotels.com`, but will still link to the full URL.
 *  - Don’t show http(s): `kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_striphttp`
    - Strip www: `kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_stripwww`
    - Show root only, not the linked to page (`example.com/inner-page/` becomes `
      example.com`): `kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_rootonly`
    - Strip all subdomains, including www: `kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_nosubdomain`
    - Hide “query strings” (`example.com?search=example&action=search` becomes `
      example.com`): `kws_gf_directory_anchor_text_noquerystring`
 *  - Submit a form using the keyboard, not just clicking the button
    -  Added filter to change directory pagination settings (results page links):`
      kws_gf_results_pagination`
    -  Fixed issue with malformed pagination link URLs
    -  Improved “Expand All Menus” checkbox layout
    -  Discovered an issue: pagination on approved-only entries doesn’t work well.
      To compensate, you could set your page size to a large number that contains
      all the entries. This likely will not be fixed soon.
 * **If you encounter any bugs, please email me to let me know** – if I don’t hear
   back with bugs I’m making the plugin live on the WordPress plugin directory.

 * Zack,
    Installed this plugin on [http://yogaminded.com/teachers-directory](http://yogaminded.com/teachers-directory).
 * Issues I ran into
    – Search only works when ‘approved=false’. Not sure if that’s
   by design or not, I figured if set to true, it would return values. – My layout
   is in list form, regardless of selecting Table. I posted these issues on your
   personal site as Alex vasquez.
 * Thanks for the update. +)

 * Without seeing how you set this up in the backend, I can’t help. Sounds like 
   it’s working properly. `approved` should really be titled `Show Approved Only
   And Hide Not Approved Entries`.

 * Alright – Version 2.5 is live! I’ve added some better descriptions to help with
   the `approved` issue.
 * Keep letting me know if you encounter any bugs!

 * Hey Zack, the search function still isn’t working quite right with the approved
   function set to true.
 * The full list of approved entries displays when approved=”true” (and entries 
   not marked approved are not shown), but if you try to search, it returns “This
   form does not have any entries yet.”
 * Any ideas?

 * I have just updated the latest version and now I always get the message “This
   form does not have any entries yet.” This has nothing to do with he search – 
   the entries do not appear. Also have played with various combinations of approved
   and not approved.
 * Was working great before & I love this plug-in.
 * Hope you can help
    John

 * Please upgrade to 3.0.2 – it should fix that problem.

 * Hi. Zack,
    Thanks for making this wonderful addon. I have been searching the 
   fix for the Search Field not working properly and still have no luck. I have 
   the most recent version 3.2.1 downloaded and installed on wordpress 3.3.1. Already
   checked and when do backend search on the top right of Entries page, it works.
   However, search not working on the frontend. When type in keyword for search,
   it brings the page directly back to website home page. I thought it might be 
   theme issue. Try different themes and all have the same problem. While reading
   through people’s post on the form,some people mention it might be the problem
   with approval, but I don’t think that’s the case for me. Any help is great and
   thank you again for making this wonderful addon. : )

 * [@erahyawen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/erahyawen/), this should be 
   fixed in 3.2.2.
