wpcf7_validate_text* hook doesn’t work?

See Contact Form 7 5.6 Beta

To developers: the existing filter-based validation mechanism will continue to work. If you have created custom validation filters, you don’t need to modify them (they only work for the server-side validation, though).

Thank you for the swift reply.

If the mechanism still works, what could be the cause of it not working in our staging site?

I have a similar issue. Prior to update 5.6 I was using this line of code to stop validation on radio buttons:

remove_filter('wpcf7_validate_radio', 'wpcf7_checkbox_validation_filter');

But after the update, radio buttons are being validated again. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Same problem here since the update to 5.6.1 version. wpcf7_checkbox_validation_filter not working anymore.

@takayukister I’ve searched the cf7 plugin codebase and haven’t found those filters. In previous versions those filters were in \contact-form-7\modules\textarea.php and \contact-form-7\modules\text.php.

Maybe if you could tell me where these filters are in this version, I could try to debug the issue myself.

Yeah I don’t think the validation works anymore, not sure why but just almost anything is let through.

I tried the most basic

	
	if(empty($_POST[$tag->name]) || strlen($_POST[$tag->name]) == 0) {
		$result->invalidate( $tag, "Field cannot be empty." );
	}
	
	
	return $result;

Just to see it working. But seems email field is not checked?
