The following code 🙂

add\_filter( ‘gform\_incomplete\_submissions\_expiration\_days’, ‘change\_incomplete\_submissions\_expiration\_days’ ); function change\_incomplete\_submissions\_expiration\_days( $expiration\_days ) { GFCommon::log\_debug( ‘gform\_incomplete\_submissions\_expiration\_days: running.’ ); $expiration\_days = 182; return $expiration\_days; }

is now showing at the bottom of our website . . . does anybody know what’s wrong ?

Check your theme functions.php file, the code has most likely been placed after a closing php tag instead of before it

Thx that seems to have done the trick. If Im honest I dont recall manually entering that code into the functions.php file . . . is this dont automatically by the plugin ?

Gravity Forms does not automatically add code snippets to your site, it would have been added manually by someone with admin access to your site or with hosting file system access.
