 * Hello,
    is there a generic action to validate a form, without having to use preprocessor?
   Ie., I’d like to stop submission during the `caldera_forms_submit_start_processors`
   hook.
 * Thanks
    Vaclav Greif

 * Hi {%customer.firstName,fallback=%},
 * Thanks for using Caldera Forms, it means a lot to us.
 * To be honest, I don’t think Caldera Forms is a good fit for this. We have many
   abilities to create custom processing of Caldera Forms data but the Caldera Forms
   processor is an integral part of how our plugin works. [https://calderaforms.com/doc/custom-processing-of-caldera-forms-submissions/](https://calderaforms.com/doc/custom-processing-of-caldera-forms-submissions/)
 * Sorry about that, but I hope we can be of help to you in the future. As always,
   you can get same-day help from us by opening a Priority Support ticket at [https://calderaforms.com/support](https://calderaforms.com/support).
