    I writing plugin that allows using of "special codes".
    On Gravity Form I want to allow people to define an input field named 'special_code' and then access it's value via validation filter from my code.
    GF insists on "input_5" - type of names. Which means on some forms it will be "input_2", on others "input_8". Some people will name it on forms as "Code Specialle", and others as "Preferred code".
    Then how do I find my "special code" field on submitted form to validate?
    I couldn't find a way to set an input name for a field?

    Hi Gleb,

    I'd recommend having them set this as a CSS class. Then you can loop through each class looking for the "special" class. The field label can read whatever the user would like.

    Here is just a bit of sample code:
