Above is the Custom Validation code for a VIN validation form I created.
Works perfectly except that it tries to apply the validation against all Gravity Forms, is there a way to wrap the function or tag it such that it only affects form ID 1 and no other form?

Change This:
add_filter('gform_validation', 'custom_validation');To This:
add_filter('gform_validation_1', 'custom_validation');You append the form id to the end of the gform_validation filter call.
The documentation has been updated to reflect this. Most of the hook/filter calls work the same way and it is reflected in the documentation.

Hm... the reason I asked the question in that way, however, was that I had tried that per another post in the forum to which I think you had responded.
When I add that, it disables the custom validation completely.So there the _1 is appended and it is as if the forms no longer see the filter.
I have confirmed that I am indeed working with form ID 1.I'm running GF1.5, WP3.1, PHP 5.2.10 , MySQL 5.0.81.
Is there another way to confine it to Form ID 1? Aside from that, the custom validation works well.

I'll have a developer look at your code, the filter should work so it's probably something in the code itself.

Wanted to see if there was anything found in the function I submitted or if you need me to try anything specific.

Hi Growth,
Sorry for the confusion. Apparently the gform_validation was one of the few hooks that did not have the ID specific version. We've added this to the core for the next release.
In the meantime, you can do a simple conditional at the very beginning of the function that checks for the form ID and then returns the result if the submission is coming from a different form ID. Here is an example:
[php] add_filter('gform_validation', 'custom_validation'); function custom_validation($validation_result) { // set the form validation to false $form = $validation_result["form"]; if($form['id'] != 1) return $validation_result; ... rest of your code ...Posted 13 years ago on Tuesday March 29, 2011 | Permalink -
Looks like that worked!
I pasted my function above and where I added the != so others could see the resolution.Posted 13 years ago on Wednesday March 30, 2011 | Permalink
