WPForms Custom Smart Tags

Written by Bill EricksonPublished on December 21, 2016Updated on December 5, 2018

WPForms comes with many pre-built smart tags, which are like shortcodes for your form. You can also add your own.

The following code will turn {my_smart_tag} into “Testing 1 2 3”. You can replace the tag name and value with whatever you’d like to use.

function ea_custom_smart_tags( $content, $tag ) {
    if( 'my_smart_tag' == $tag ) {
        $value = 'Testing 1 2 3';
        $content = str_replace( '{' . $tag . '}', $value, $content );
    }
    return $content;
}
add_filter( 'wpforms_smart_tag_process', 'ea_custom_smart_tags', 10, 2 );
