Using Gravity Forms ‘gform_entry_list_bulk_actions’ PHP filter

by

The gform_entry_list_bulk_actions Gravity Forms PHP filter allows modifying the dropdown of available bulk actions on the entries list. This filter works well with the gform_entry_list_action action for handling the custom actions added.

Usage

To apply this filter to all forms:

add_filter('gform_entry_list_bulk_actions', 'your_function_name', 10, 2);

To limit the scope of your function to a specific form, append the form ID to the end of the hook name (format: gform_entry_list_bulk_actions_FORMID):

add_filter('gform_entry_list_bulk_actions_21', 'your_function_name', 10, 2);

Parameters

  • $actions (array): An array of the bulk actions to be used in the dropdown list.
  • $form_id (int): The ID of the current form.
