Hi, I have a client that is looking for a form to accomplish the following, and was wondering if it was possible with Gravity Forms and the best way to accomplish it. They are looking to have a field that would be matched against information from an excel sheet or some other file. If there is a mat…

You can use the gform_field_validation filter for that. That runs when the form is first submitted. At that time you can compare the value they entered to your data source (plain text or database table are probably easiest) and let the submission through if there is a match, or return a validation…

Hi Chris, Thanks for your response. I found a previous thread that was trying to accomplish something similar, except with codes rather than text. This is the thread: http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/database-look-up-validation . Would I be able to adjust this code to fit my needs? Thanks ag…

Yes, you can use that approach. Let us know where you get stuck.

I keep getting an invalid code error, so I think its something having to do with where my file is. I uploaded the .txt to the media folder on my theme, and copied the ful…

You can use the media folder on your server: that’s fine. Can you share the actual error message with the text of the error, or a screenshot? Also, can you share the URL to the text file on your server?

Sure, no problem. [42%20PM] URL for the text file is: http://garritonbar.live/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/test.txt

Hi, should I open this in a support ticket? Thanks in advance.

I took a look at the code and added some logging statements. That will help us figure out where the failure occurs. Here is the new code: add_filter( 'gform_validation_2', 'validate_code' ); function validate_code( $validation_result ){ // add some logging Chris Hajer Gravity Forms Nov 16, 2018 …

OK, that all looks good. It looks like there is probably an issue with the code. Can you share with us the code you are using, and also let us know the form ID and the field ID of the field in the form. Thank you.
