Hi All

Im trying to run some code after a form is submitted and before the redirect URL is returned to the client.

My form is in embedded into a learn dash course page and Im pretty sure its submitted via ajax.

My code is in a custom plugin file and the code works 100% if I call it directly. But doesn’t seem to fire when the hook is called.

Ive tried everything inside the callback function, print\_r(), die(), echo(), nothing is working in there.

Tia for the help!

```auto
<?php

namespace PreActive\Hooks;

use PreActive\Courses\Knpcourse;
use PreActive\User\Knpuser;

class Knppa
{
    public $sittingScore = [
        'low' => 24,
        'mid' => [24, 34],
        'high' => 34
    ];

    public $standingScore = [
        'low' => 25,
        'mid' => [25, 36],
        'high' => 36
    ];

    public function __construct()
    {
        //Run after the mobility form is submitted. NOT WORKING!
        add_action('gform_after_submission_4', [$this, 'knp_process_welcomecourse'], 10, 1);

        //Run directly from the browser (domain.com/?knoppys) works fine!
        if (isset($_GET['knoppys'])) {
            $this->knp_process_welcomecourse([18 => 'no']);
        }

    }

    private function knp_process_welcomecourse($entry)
    {

        //Get current user data
        $profile = new Knpuser();

        //Create new course
        $course = new Knpcourse();
        $course->new_course(20096);

        //Assign the new weeks
        $sitstand = $entry[18] == 'yes' ? 'standing' : 'seated';
        $course->assign_sit_stant_weeks($sitstand);

        //Update user profile
        $decodedData = $profile->get_user_profile();
        $decodedData['sit_stand_status'] = $sitstand;
        $profile->update_user_profile($decodedData);

    }

}

```

Your hook isn’t firing because private methods aren’t callable by external functions. If you make the method public, the hook should properly execute.

Staring at code for too long, didn’t even see that!

Thank you!
