Free and paid forms to one directory
I am creating a business directory with both free listings and paid listings. I can create the forms for both, setup woo commerce to pay for the premium (paid) listings and create a view to show the premium listing. But how can i have a page with one a-z directory listing both free and paid listings?

Assuming that the free and paid listings contain identical fields and data, you would have to source a single view from two different forms. This is not possible without a lot of custom coding. Out of the box, Formidable supports one form and its entries when building a view. So a lot depends on your coding skills.
Another approach that would provide easier access to the data, is to use a single form with a "paid entry" flag. The field would be hidden to the person entering the data. It could default to "no" and programmatically changed to "yes" for people with paid accounts. This way you would create two views of the same form. The first would be filtered to display only the unpaid entries, the second would be unfiltered to display all records. This is simpler to implement than using two forms and displaying merged data.
