Hook Examples

Add two filters combined with OR

This example adds a filter which will check if Field A contains value 1 OR Field B contains value 2. The values will be retrieved from a search URL. In order for this function to be used, you must add a filter to your View which says "Field A is like custom". If you would like to search for a value that is equal to the search term, replace 'like' in the code with = and remove the % characters. Replace the field and View IDs with your IDs. Replace the search terms with your search terms as well.

Auto-Map Column Headers

You can use this code to auto-match the header columns in your .csv file with the fields in your field. This is especially helpful when the header fields in your .csv file are different from the labels of your fields.

Add an hour to the time

My php skills are beginner level at best, so there are probably a lot better ways to do this. I was trying to create a shortcode to add an hour to time and the following actually works.

I am amazed that it worked and happy that after all the examples you've given us, I can give something back.

Prevent URL hacking by adding a Secret field

Formidable Forms has weak resistance to URL hacking (version 3.03.02 - 14 Sep 2018). A user can potentially access secure parts of the system by changing the URL parameters, for example on an Edit . . . Link.One way to improve security is to add a Secret to each record. If this is added to your edit links then you can verify that the URL relates to the correct record.

Stop views making line breaks

Views are really useful for returning text fragments. For example, the number of records matching a WHERE clause (the "filter" in the view). However by default these text fragments are wrapped in . . . which forces a line break in your page.

Shortcode to return the User's domain from their email address

I needed to filter a view using the the user's domain from their email address. To do this I created a pure WordPress shortcode [users-email-domain] that can be used in the filter section of . . . Formidable views.
