How to Customize Validation Message to Show New Post?

    I am using Gravity Forms so my logged in users can publish new posts without going to the dashboard. It is working beautifully so far! I was struggling with TDO Mini Forms so am thankful this worked right out of the box for what I needed it to do.

    i just want to make one little tweak and not sure how to do it. Right now it says "Thank you, your entry was submitted" after someone submits their post - is there a way to customize this so it would link to the new post that has been published?

    Thanks!
    Chelle

    Hi Chelle,

    We have not added this token yet; however, it is a simple matter to add this as a custom token with a little code.

    Step 1 - Paste the following code into your functions.php file: http://pastie.org/1433007

    Step 2 - Add the {post_url} custom token in the confirmation message wherever you would like the URL to be output. More than likely you will want to add it as the href attribute of a link like so:

    View your post <a href="{post_url}">here!</a>

    That's it! :)
