Hello @tgilber007 !
Hope you’re doing well today!
Due to security precautions, HTML can’t be used in the custom fields. This would potentially open a serious security hole where someone could add a <script> instead and run any code on your site. We prevent this from happening by removing any HTML tags from the data.
You can do this in a different and secure way though:
– set the value to just {url-1}
– on the page itself display the link, for example like this:
<a href="<?php echo get_post_meta($post_id, 'custom', true); ?>">view</a>
You can also create a custom shortcode to display this link from any builder:
add_shortcode('my_view_link', function($atts, $content) {
global $post;
return '<a href="' . get_post_meta($post->ID, 'custom', true) . '">view</a>';
});
And then you can place [my_view_link] in the content where you want to display it.

Thank you for a suggestion, By surfing online i find the below method and it’s work well.
1. But i have one doubt if this code is secure for use or not.
2. How to apply this code only for form with id (342).
Thanks in advance
add_action( 'forminator_post_data_field_post_saved', function($post_id, $field, $data){
$the_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id, //the ID of the Post
'meta_input' => array(
'custom' => '<a href="'.$_POST['url-1'] .'">view</a>'
)
);
wp_update_post( $the_post );
}, 10, 3);

You can modify the code like this:
add_action( 'forminator_post_data_field_post_saved', function($post_id, $field, $data){
if($_POST['form_id'] == 342) {
$the_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id, //the ID of the Post
'meta_input' => array(
'custom' => '<a href="'.$_POST['url-1'] .'">view</a>'
)
);
wp_update_post( $the_post );
}
}, 10, 3);
I’ve just tested it on my test form and it worked as expected.
Best regards,
Pawel
