Overview of the issue

After updating to WPForms 1.10.0.5, translated values from multilingual choice fields such as:

  • Multiple Choice
  • Checkboxes
  • Dropdowns
  • GDPR Checkbox fields

may fail validation when submitted on translated forms. As a result, forms may not submit correctly

This happens because WPForms introduced stricter validation for submitted choice values.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full site backup of your site before proceeding.


  • Open your functions.php file.

  • Add the following code:
    add_filter( 'wpforms_field_choices_allow_unknown_value', '__return_true' );
