Why we created this snippet?
There are a number of reasons why you might be looking for a snippet like this. We wrote the snippet originally after encountering an issue with a form not submitting if a user entered an incorrect email, even after correcting the mistake. There was a conflict between Gravity Forms preventing double submissions and the browser based support of HTML5 validation. Our fix was to disable HTML5 validation and rely on the Gravity Forms validation.
| <?php | |
| /** | |
| * Gravity Wiz // Disable HTML5 Validation on Gravity Forms | |
| * https://gravitywiz.com/disable-html5-validation-on-gravity-forms/ | |
| */ | |
| add_filter( 'gform_form_tag', 'add_no_validate_attribute_to_form_tag' ); | |
| function add_no_validate_attribute_to_form_tag( $form_tag ) { | |
| return str_replace( '>', ' novalidate="novalidate">', $form_tag ); | |
| } |

welp, this broke my site. It wasn’t clear that only part of it needed to be in the functions.php file. I mistakenly added all of it to the existing code. -__-
