Description
How does it work?
PHP Code Keeper for Gravity Forms…
- creates a directory at
wp-content/uploads/gravity_hopper/code/. - adds a file
gf-global-code.php(for housing globally run code). - optionally creates/duplicates/deletes a
gf-00xx.phpfile for every form created/duplicated/deleted. (for housing form-specific code) - will load all files in the code directory associated with an existing form or having prefix that has been explicitly allowed.
- allows exporting any number of code files to compressed .zip.
- introduces pages in the Gravity Forms interface whereby you can manage custom PHP code.
Code Keeper does not restrict when specific files are included on the site. All code from allowed files residing in the gravity_hopper/code/ directory will run for all forms. Always use appropriate hooks and/or conditional checks when targeting specific forms and fields.
Why use it?
PHP Code Keeper provides orderliness to your code customizations, gives you a better sense of the specific code running across your site, and helps ensure your customizations are not lost when other site modifications are made.

You can also add a link to open the files directly in your preferred code editor using the filter gravityhopper-cck/opoen_file_uri.
`
add_filter( ‘gravityhopper-cck/open_file_uri’, function( $uri, $filename ) {
return array(
‘app’ => ‘VS Code’,
‘protocol’ => ‘vscode:/’,
‘path’ => $filename
);
}, 10, 2 );
`
Allowed files within the directory gravity_hopper/code/ of your uploads directory will be loaded.
The file gf-global-code.php will always be loaded and will be loaded before other files.
Any files matching prefix patterns allowed via the filter gravityhopper-cck/allowed_file_prefixes will be loaded in the order they appear in that filtered array.
Finally, any form-specific files named using the convention gform-00xx.php will be loaded next, provided a form matching the ID exists on the site.
