Hi there!
I am attempting to modify the output of the list field values for my custom notifications using the gform_merge_tag_filter. I want to change the list format from an unordered list to an ordered list by changing the “
I’ve tried modifying the snippet from this thread (I want to format a list field values in a custom notification [RESOLVED]), but it doesn’t seem to work, most likely because I’m not implementing it right.
From how I understand it, I need to target the list merge tag that has my own custom modifier (:numbered), then find any “
add_filter('gform_merge_tag_filter', function ($value, $merge_tag, $options, $field) {
if ( $field->type == 'list' && $modifier == 'numbered') {
$newvalue = $value;
// change opening tag
$find = '#<ul>#';
$replace = '<ol>';
$newvalue = preg_replace($find, $replace, $newvalue);
// change closing tag
$find = '#</ul>#';
$replace = '</ol>';
$newvalue = preg_replace($find, $replace, $newvalue);
return $newvalue;
} else {
return $value;
}
}, 10, 6 );
Am I thinking this through correctly? Is this the wrong implementation?
