So, instead of the visitor seeing "There was a problem with your submission. Errors have been highlighted below." they would see "Email or password is invalid." Is that what you're trying to do? </p> <p>What do you mean exactly with your second question? Are you trying to redirect the user from within your gform_validation function? If so, please see this: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/open-a-new-gravity-form-upon-form-validation-error#post-151086" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/open-a-new-gravity-form-upon-form-validation-error#post-151086</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/change-main-form-message-with-gform_validation#post-155074 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 11:32:58 +0000 stevorevo 155074@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am using gform_validation and need to change the main error message (not for individual field/s) in the event that an error occurs and could possibly be related to multiple fields (e.g., it's a login form and the email and/or password could be wrong but I just want to display one message that says email or password is invalid). I found add_filter('gform_validation_message') but cannot figure out how to call that from within my validation function. Can you point me in the right direction?</p> <p>Also, can I do a redirect from within a function that is called using a gravity forms hook?</p> <p>Thank you. </p>
