Round of the parallel practice tool was done in Google Forms/Sheets. Things went pretty well and an internal award was given to help take the project to the next level. I did a bit of early sketching with the form a little while ago. This week, I’ve been working on it more diligently and I […]
Gravity Forms does all kinds of nice things with merge fields. These mail-merge-like chunks make it really easy to create content, send custom messages, or redirect people using the data submitted via forms. When your plain data doesn’t do what you need, there are a number of useful built in modifiers. I’ve mainly used the […]
