We’ve been brewing updates quickly since launching Referral Source Tracking for Gravity Forms — and version 1.1.3 is our biggest improvement cycle yet.
Get Referral Source Tracking for Gravity Forms!
This release brings expanded search engine detection, major new AI assistant attribution, and a significantly improved multisite licensing experience powered by our unified Brewhouse updater framework. Whether you’re tracking lead sources for clients or running your own marketing operation, this update makes your Gravity Forms referral tracking more accurate and more reliable than ever.
Let’s dig in.
Expanded Search Engine Support
Your analytics just got sharper.
We’ve expanded our detection layer to correctly identify referral traffic from:
- DuckDuckGo
- Yandex
These join existing coverage for Google, Bing, Yahoo, and more. If your visitors come from privacy-focused or international search engines, their referrals now appear in your Gravity Forms entries just as clearly as the major players.
New AI Assistant Detection
AI-generated traffic is growing fast — and now you can tell exactly when your leads originate from the major models.
Version 1.1.x introduced support for:
- ChatGPT
- Perplexity
- Microsoft Copilot
- Claude
- Grok
- DeepSeek
If a user lands on your site after asking an AI assistant a question, you’ll see it labeled automatically in the “Referral Source” field inside your form entries. No manual work. No tracking scripts. Just reliable attribution.
Major Multisite Licensing Improvements
(Unlimited License Plans Only)
This release delivers the biggest improvement yet for WordPress multisite users.
Better Network Activation Flow
Unlimited licenses can now be activated at the network level, automatically propagating referral tracking to every subsite — with chunked, AJAX-based progress so even large networks run smoothly.
Live Status Feedback
Admins can now monitor real-time messages as subsites activate or deactivate licensing in batches. No guessing, no refreshing, no stalling.
Automatic Subsite Handling
When Network Mode is enabled:
- Subsites inherit the license automatically
- No individual site key entry required
- Settings remain active even if the license becomes inactive later
- Deactivation processes run in safe, chunked batches
Stay-On-Page Warnings
Long-running tasks now display leave-page warnings to prevent broken operations or incomplete network activations.
Screenshots you can insert here:
- Network Mode activation screen
- Subsite “inherited license” indicator
- Chunked progress UI
Unified Brewhouse 1.3.1 Updater
Behind the scenes, this release standardizes our Brewhouse licensing and update framework across all Plugin Brewery products.
This ensures:
- consistent updater behavior
- more reliable license key validation
- better version checking
- no cross-plugin conflicts
- smoother multisite communication
It’s not a public-facing feature, but it’s a big step toward long-term stability for the entire Plugin Brewery ecosystem.
Translation Updates
We refreshed every bundled translation file so the newest strings appear cleanly in all supported languages. If your clients run multilingual sites, you’ll notice a smoother, more accurate experience across the board.
Fixes & Quality Improvements
- Hidden referral fields now stay fully invisible in the form builder, block editor, and frontend
- Referral tracking now activates immediately after plugin activation
- Clearing or replacing license keys is more reliable, even if a remote deactivation fails
- Overall multisite license feedback and UI guidance is clearer and more predictable
