frm_saved_errors

Heads up!
This article contains PHP code and is intended for developers. We offer this code as a courtesy, but don't provide support for code customizations or 3rd party development.

This filters the error data before showing a form, and that form has already been submitted before.

Usage

add_filter( 'frm_saved_errors', 'add_custom_error', 10, 2 );

Formidable Forms makes advanced site building simple. Launch forms, directories, dashboards, and custom WordPress apps faster than ever before.

Parameters

  • $errors (array): The errors array. Please check frm_validate_entry for the structure of this array.
  • $params (array): See FrmForm::get_params() for more details about what are included in this array.

Examples

Add custom error to a field

add_filter( 'frm_saved_errors', 'add_custom_error' , 10, 2 );
function add_custom_error( $errors, $params ) {
	$field_id = 10; // Replace 10 with field ID where you want to show the error.
	if ( ! isset( $errors[ 'field'. $field_id ] ) ) { // If that field has error, do not overwrite it.
		$errors[ 'field' . $field_id ] = 'Your custom error message';
	}
 return $errors;
}
