    Hi,
    i’m surprised this is not a built in feature of the plugin.
    Anyway it’s imperative to sanitize user content.

    I tried this, but it doesn’t work. How to do it properly?

    function sanitize_forms( $error ) {
	
	
    if ( isset( $_POST['user_content_copyright'] ) ) {
		sanitize_text_field($_POST['user_content_copyright']);

    }

	return'';

}

add_filter( 'wpuf_add_post_validate', 'sanitize_forms' );

    The goal here is to sanitize $_POST[‘user_content_copyright’] BEFORE it gets in the db.
