We’re trying to solve some accessibility issues in sites that already exist. It’s not much fun but some of the solutions might be useful to others.

Backdating a Gravity Forms Created Post
This is something that’ll come in handy with forms creating timeline events. You can add a date field to the form and this will change the post date to match it. It might work the other way too, I didn’t try that. Take note of the notes below as this is setup for the date […]
