hello i want to get form entry time and date and print it on customer receipt or send it to email

i use this script in function.php theme

```auto

add_filter( 'gform_replace_merge_tags', 'djb_gform_replace_merge_tags', 10, 7 );
function djb_gform_replace_merge_tags( $text, $form, $entry, $url_encode, $esc_html, $nl2br, $format ) {
if ( strpos( $text, '{current_hour}' ) !== false ) {
$text = str_replace( '{current_hour}', current_time( 'G' ), $text );
}
if ( strpos( $text, '{current_minute}' ) !== false ) {
$text = str_replace( '{current_minute}', current_time( 'i' ), $text );
}
return $text;
}

```

this code work well before i update gravityform to 2.5

I recommend using the built in logging in Gravity Forms and adding some custom logging statements to your code. First, enable logging:

> **[Logging and Debugging - Gravity Forms Documentation](https://docs.gravityforms.com/logging-and-debugging/#enabling-logging)**
>
> For quite a while, enabling logging within Gravity Forms has been a go-to method for debugging any issues within Gravity Forms. As of Gravity Forms version 2.2, logging functionality has been moved from a separate add-on to becoming a core feature of...

Then add some custom logging statements to your code to see what’s no longer working. I recommend adding a logging statement inside each conditional and also after any variable is assigned a value:

> While Gravity Forms and its add-ons include numerous logging statements sometimes you may need to add more. This article explains how to add custom logging.
