And if the validation fails for your field, you need to set the failed validation for it and the failed validation message, like in the code example in the documentation located here: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation</a> . Take a look at that documentation and see if that gets you further. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/website-field-not-validating-without-http#post-350777 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 20:53:19 +0000 Phil 350777@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p><u>UPDATE #2</u><br /> My code above works for a website field, but not for a post custom field whose type is set to website. In the latter case, $field['type'] is 'post_custom_field' instead of 'website'. However, in both cases, $field['inputType'] is 'website', so we can use it instead. Given that $field['inputType'] is not set for all fields (e.g., honeypot), we'll include an isset() check to avoid the php "Notice: Undefined Index". So...</p> <ol> <li>Replace line 8 above (<strike>$types[] = $field['type'];</strike>) with<br /> <pre><code>if ( isset($field[&#39;inputType&#39;]) ) $types[] = $field[&#39;inputType&#39;];</code></pre> </li> <li>Then replace line 31 above (<strike>if ( 'website' != $field['type'] )</strike>) with<br /> <pre><code>if ( ! isset($field[&#39;inputType&#39;]) || &#39;website&#39; != $field[&#39;inputType&#39;] )</code></pre> </li> </ol> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/action-a-php-script-upon-form-submission-using-an-external-php-script#post-349765 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 08:22:04 +0000 dustin 349765@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks, just so you are aware, I have removed the code from my functions.php file because it's causing errors. </p> <p>Cheers </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/action-a-php-script-upon-form-submission-using-an-external-php-script#post-349752 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 08:15:19 +0000 Rob Harrell 349752@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'll see if the dev team can spot anything here for you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/action-a-php-script-upon-form-submission-using-an-external-php-script#post-347996 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 10:47:30 +0000 dustin 347996@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi I wonder if anyone can help me?<br /> I've got a call to action gravity form setup on my website where customers can enter their UK postcode and click submit. The user is then re-directed to another gravity form where they can complete their request. I've setup dynamic population so the input entered into form 1 gets populated in the second form.</p> <p>For Form 1 - when a user enters data &amp; clicks submit (Before user is directed to form 2)<br /> Upon submit I would like to action an external php script which would validate the user entry.</p> <p>I've tried various filters and actions But I just can't figure out how to action the PHP script.</p> <p>Link to form1 <a href="http://my-insulation.info/" rel="nofollow">http://my-insulation.info/</a> is the main page </p> <p>When I input data and click submit I get the following error -There was a problem with your submission. Errors have been highlighted below.</p> <p>I'm not a web developer &amp; can't afford to hire one, If someone can offer any assistance I would greatly appreciate it -</p> <p>This is what I've done or got -</p> <p>//Code is placed in the themes function.php file<br /> My PHP code can be seen here - <a href="http://pastebin.com/S9S7dH09" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/S9S7dH09</a> </p>
