'(): running.' ); $field = GFAPI::get_field( $form, $field_id ); if ( is_object( $field ) && $field->type == 'survey' ) { $value = $field->get_value_export( $entry, $field_id, true ); gf_activecampaign()->log_debug( __METHOD__ . '(): Value: ' . $value ); } return $value;}

'(): running.' ); $field = GFAPI::get_field( $form, $field_id ); if ( is_object( $field ) && ( $field->type == 'checkbox' || $field->type == 'multiselect' ) ) { $value = str_replace( ', ', '||', $value ); gf_activecampaign()->log_debug( __METHOD__ . '(): Value: ' . $value ); } return $value;}
