Tagged: filter input values
Hello!
I’d like to filter one or all input components of a search form and change what the user put into them, before sending them to S&F.
Something like
function filter_input_values($inputs, $sfid){
if($sfid==365){
if($inputs['_sf_s']['value']) $input['_sf_s']['value'] = NULL;
}
return $inputs;
}
add_filter('sf_filter_input_values','filter_input_values', 10, 2);
Any way of acting upon input values like this?
My reason for doing this is for using a field of the search to transfer some data to my backend login, but without changing/impacting the search itself. Or in some cases just correct address data that a user didn’t enter properly.
Thank you Trevor! The issue I was having with sf_edit_query_args
is that $query_args was empty. I read around in the forum and it turns out I had to use a different priority than the one specified in the docs (like 100) to get results in $query_args using this filter.
