The file is included while execution i.e. a <code>die()</code> in the file halts everything but inside the function nothing is executed, so I think <code>gform_post_data</code> filter is not even firing on my setup.</p> <pre><code>add_filter( &quot;gform_post_data&quot;, &quot;ft_gf_change_post_type&quot;, 10, 2 ); function ft_gf_change_post_type( $post_data, $form ) { $post_data[&quot;post_type&quot;] = &quot;job&quot;; return $post_data; }</code></pre> <p>Also on Gist: <a href="https://gist.github.com/1363676" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/1363676</a></p> <p>P.S. I have gone through the forums a lot, the same filter is working for everyone but not me. Any suggestions what could be failing here? </p>
