Usage

add_filter( 'frm_display_text_value_custom', 'adjust_text_value', 10, 2 );
function adjust_text_value( $value, $args ) {

Parameters

  • $value (string or array) - The value to be displayed
  • $args (array)
    • $args['field'] (object) - The field being displayed
    • $args['entry'] (object) - The entry that is being displayed

Examples

Format an email address

Switch a displayed email address to a mailto link.

add_filter( 'frm_display_email_value_custom', 'frm_email_val', 15, 2 );
function frm_email_val( $value, $atts ) {
  if ( $atts['field']->id == 500 ) { // Change 500 to the ID of your email field
    $value = '<a href="mailto:' .  $value . '">' . $value . '</a>'; //change the value here
  }
  return $value;
}

Filter page break fields

Use this example to change the default <br /><br /> to a Page # string that counts up with each page break (starting from page 2 since there is no page break rendered at the start).

$page_number = 1;

// Reset page name each time an entry shortcode begins.
add_filter(
	'frm_show_entry_defaults',
	function( $defaults ) use ( &$page_number ) {
		$page_number = 1;
		return $defaults;
	}
);

add_filter(
	'frm_display_break_value_custom',
	function( $value, $args ) use ( &$page_number ) {
		$target_form_id = 464; // Change 464 with your form ID
		if ( $target_form_id !== (int) $args['field']->form_id ) {
			return $value;
		}

		$is_plain_text = isset( $args['atts'] ) && ! empty( $args['atts']['plain_text'] );
		$value         = 'Page ' . ( ++$page_number );

		if ( ! $is_plain_text ) {
			$value = '<b>' . $value . '</b>';
		}

		return $value;
	},
	10,
	2
);
