## Beschreibung

This plugin adds a „Download View PDF“ button to the entry actions dropdown in Formidable
Forms, allowing users to download formatted PDF versions of form entries using your
custom PDF Views.

**IMPORTANT:** This plugin requires a complete Formidable Forms setup including 
Pro license, Forms to PDF Add-on, and custom PDF Views to function.

#### Features

 * Adds a PDF download button to Formidable Forms entry actions dropdown
 * Uses your existing Formidable PDF Views as templates
 * Simple configuration with one PDF View ID
 * Integrates seamlessly with Formidable’s existing PDF system
 * Upgrade to Pro for multiple templates, custom button text, and more

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 5.0 or higher
 * **Formidable Forms Pro** (active license required)
 * **Formidable Forms Forms to PDF Add-on** (must be installed and activated)
 * **At least one PDF View** created in Formidable Forms
 * Form entries to test with

### Installation & Complete Setup

#### STEP 1: Install Required Plugins

 1. Install and activate **Formidable Forms Pro** (requires valid license)
 2. Install and activate the **Forms to PDF Add-on**
 3. Install and activate this plugin

#### STEP 2: Create a PDF View

 1. If you haven’t yet, go to **Formidable  Forms** and create a new form (or use an
    existing one)
 2. To customize how you want the form data displayed in PDF, go to **Formidable  Views**
    and click **„Add New“**
 3. Create a new View to serve as your PDF template
 4. Using the built-in **View Layout builder**, start designing your layout however
    you like
 5. Add the form fields you want to appear in your PDF
 6. Click **„Save Layout“** when you are done designing
 7. **Publish** the view (very important – drafts won’t work!)
 8. **Note the View ID** – you’ll see it in the Views list or in the URL when editing

#### STEP 3: Configure This Plugin

 1. Go to **Formidable  PDF View Settings**
 2. Enter your **PDF View ID** from Step 2
 3. Click **„Save Changes“**

#### STEP 4: Test the Functionality

 1. Go to **Formidable  Entries**
 2. Click on any entry to view its details
 3. Look for **„Download View PDF“** button in the entry actions dropdown (top-right
    area)
 4. Click to download your formatted PDF

### Where to Find the PDF Button

The PDF download button appears in the **entry actions dropdown** when viewing individual
form entries. This dropdown is typically in the upper-right corner of the entry 
details page, next to other actions like „Edit Entry“ or „Delete Entry“.
