If you put the contents of the $_POST variable you will be able to see which index stores the value you'd like to update and can run your str_replace() directly on the $_POST variable. Gravity Forms will then use the $_POST to generate the lead details for the submission. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/equivalent-of-str_replace-on-specific-field-of-form#post-27615 Sat, 11 Jun 2011 12:07:59 +0000 Cliff Seal 27615@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>If this has been answered, I couldn't find it. On one specific field, I want to, basically, run a str_replace() to change an ampersand into the word 'and' upon submission. I don't want validation to report an error, I just want to handle it afterwards since the fields populate a GET URL. </p> <p>I know I can likely dive into the code and create some sort of conditional function, but I wanted to see if there was a hook/filter that would do this more efficiently. Thanks! </p>
