We start with some basic forms…
PZForms comes with block components that let you build sophisticated forms. These forms work like other forms in the WordPress ecosystem–the data from each form submission is forwarded to the email destination of your choice.
Oh, and each form is a WordPress “block,” so you can insert copies of this form wherever you need them on your site.
PZPlusForms, the premium version, gives you far more power…
With the “Plus” version of the package, you get access to an underlying business database–and suddenly you can tie each field in a form to a table and field inside PeakZebra.
Customize your website visitor experiences based on segmentation
One great use of PZPlusForms is asking users specific questions that indicate what subgroup of your users they best fit into.
Once you’ve got a segment assigned for a given user, you can use the pzIfThen blocks to display variations on any page’s content based on the current user’s segment.
Coming in late April ’25: Display your data in modern, interactive data grids…
Lightning fast refresh as you scroll through your data. Sort by clicking column headers. Drag columns into the order of your choice. You can even edit rows in place.
Starting to sound like we’re building applications?
Not exactly. No, you’re building applications.
If all you need are forms and grids, then you’ve got “Airtable-style” applications without AirTable’s per-user pricing gotcha.
Need more complex interactions? Remember you can easily customize what happens when forms are submitted with only a little PHP code (we provide lots of samples).
PeakZebra is dedicated to helping you build cool, React-based applications on WordPress systems. And you can customize the application’s performance on the front end using server-based PHP. Because, yes, it’s done using blocks, the key part of the “new era” of WordPress. Blocks make sense for a lot of reasons, including that:
