New Hooks and Filters

  1. I am assuming that new hooks or filters were added to 1.39 -- I am working with a developer using GF as the front end for the project, and i was curious if the documentation was updated with any new hooks etc. What I am working on with him is in the realm as the mail chimp idea. Submitting info to a central location from the form, so I thought some of the hooks might help in production.

  2. The only new filter that was added in 1.3.9 is a filter to change the primary validation message that appears at the top of a form when there is an error on the form. This is the form wide error message, not an individual field error message.

    add_filter("gform_validation_message", "change_message", 10, 2);
            function change_message($message, $form){
                return "failed " . $form["title"];
            }

    Field level validation message customization is already available as an option under the advanced tab on individual fields.

    It hasn't been added to the documentation just yet.

    I've managed to change it with the jQuery method from another thread. Would be good to have this as a global form setting though please.

  5. Just for anyone else trying to do this:

    - The function hook can sit at the bottom of your functions.php.

    - If you want the same error style, just with your own message, here is the hook/function:

    add_filter("gform_validation_message", "change_message", 10, 2);
    function change_message($message, $form){
        return '<div class="validation_error"> Your Error message here </div>';
    }
