Changing form token cache time

    Hi;

    I was searching a way to solve the incompatibility of cache time of your token and my cache plugin and I found this article on your website:

    https://wpforms.com/developers/how-to-change-the-cache-time-on-your-form-token/

    I want to apply that, but I don’t understand exactly what I have to write on the php inserter. If I want to allow a token cache for one week, should I use the next code?

    add_filter( 'wpforms_form_token_check_before_today', 'example_add_longer_token_time_before' );
 
    /**
     * Extend the expiration time. 
     */
    function example_add_longer_token_time_before( $times ) {
        // Allow the token to persist for 5 days
        $times[] = 7 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;
    }

    If not, could you please help me to solve that.

    Thank you in advance.

  • Hey @alexbosch,

    Thanks for contacting us!

    You can use following code to extend the expiration time:

    add_filter( 'wpforms_form_token_check_before_today', function ( $times ) {  

   $times[] = 3 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;  
   $times[] = 4 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;  
   $times[] = 5 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;  
   $times[] = 6 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;  
   $times[] = 7 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;  
   $times[] = 8 * DAY_IN_SECONDS;  

return $times; } );

    The above code would increase the token lifetime to 8 days and that should also fix the issue for you.

    Kindly,
