Disable auto-completion

Hello @massdoo11 !

I trust you’re doing well!

Forminator doesn’t have a built-in option for that, but you can try the following script:

<?php

add_filter(
	'forminator_render_form_markup',
	function( $html, $fields ) {
		return str_replace(
			array( '<input', '<form' ),
			array( '<input autocomplete="off"', '<form autocomplete="off"' ), 
			$html 
		);
	},
	10,
	2
);

To install the script, please copy the code to a .php file and place the file in wp-content/mu-plugins directory (please create the directory if it doesn’t exist).

This snippet will disable autocompletion on all Forminator forms, in all fields.

Best regards,
Pawel

Hi @massdoo11

If you have modified the code but it remains the same on the page (in page source) then it means usually that cache is serving “old” version of the page.

Make sure that all the cache (on site/server/CDN if there is any) is cleared and, just in case, you may also either clear browser cache or test in incognito browser tab after that. Purging all caches should get the change applied.

Kind regards

Hi @massdoo11

I’m sorry but I’m a bit confused now:

– the original code that Pawel shared doesn’t work?
– or your modification is still not applied (the one that apparently worked for you when added via Chrome browser)?

I’ve just tested Pawel’s code on my test site and it worked as expected there so either it’s still not applied correctly or there’s something in addition that’s breaking it.

I think you have tried to add that code using some sort of “php snippet” plugin, right?

Can you instead try to add it “manually”?:

– create an empty file with a .php extension (e.g. stop-autocomplete.php)
– copy and paste code that my colleague shared earlier – exactly as it is – into it
– save the file
– upload it to the “/wp-content/mu-plugin” folder of your site via FTP, Cpanel “File Manager” or similar way

Once it’s there, again clear all cache on site/server and check if it works then, please.

Kind regards,
Adam
