custom field label for survey questions

Hi @liaos,

The docs has a pretty extensive explanation on changing labels. I think the answer is in there. If not please let me know.

Hi Doeke,
As usual, thanks for the lightening-fast reply. ^_^ And thanks for the link provided.

In the documentation, it shows how to change label by identifying Field ID.
However, when using likert Survey, it may have 10 Yes/No questiosn for one survey that shows only one field ID.
Here is the html from the likert survey example:
<table class=”gsurvey-likert” id=”input_11″><tr>
<td data-label=”” class=”gsurvey-likert-row-label”>Q1</td>
<td data-label=”” class=”gsurvey-likert-row-label”>Q2</td>
<td data-label=”” class=”gsurvey-likert-row-label”>Q3</td>
<td data-label=”” class=”gsurvey-likert-row-label”>Q4</td>
<td data-label=”” class=”gsurvey-likert-row-label”>Q5</td>
</tr></table>

Sometimes, each survey may have 10+ questions, so is there any possible way to map field labels so in the excel file for surveyA, the labels can be customized to something like these?
Q1 = SurveyA_Q1
Q2 = SurveyA_Q2
Q3 = SurveyA_Q3
Q4 = SurveyA_Q4
Q5 = SurveyA_Q5

I am hoping that it is still possible.

Hi @liaos,

Sorry i didn’t realise you ment a plug in. I don’t own that specific plugin, so it’s hard to say. If you can provide me with the plugin on [email protected] I’d love to take look.

Hi @liaos,

Luckily this was way easier than I thought. Add the following code to your functions.php and adjust were needed.

// This is the likert field for form 6, field id 1.
add_filter('gfexcel_field_label_likert_6_1', function ($label, $field) {
    // update / add values here
    // If you only need to update the fourth field, remove the rest and only add:
    // '4' => 'your value',
    $labels = [
        '1' => 'label1',
        '2' => 'label2',
        '3' => 'label3',
    ];

    // leave this as is. 
    foreach ($field->get_entry_inputs() as $input) {
        if ($input['label'] === $label && $parts = explode('.', $input['id'])) {
            if (isset($labels[$parts[1]])) {
                // overwrite the label
                return $labels[$parts[1]];
            }
        }
    }

    // use the original label
    return $label;
}, 10, 2)
