Plugiva Pulse is intentionally focused. It does not try to be a full form builder.

Usage Inline Feedback (New) Plugiva Pulse allows you to embed lightweight feedback prompts directly inside your content using a shortcode.

Example:

[ppls_question q="Was this helpful?" type="yesno"]

You can also use emoji-based feedback:

[ppls_question q="How do you feel about this?" type="emoji"]

Inline feedback is designed for quick engagement:

No page reloads (AJAX powered)

Duplicate submissions are prevented automatically

Feedback is stored with post context

Works seamlessly inside posts and pages

Custom response types can be added using the developer hooks below.

Block Use the Plugiva Pulse block in the block editor and select a pulse.

Shortcodes Pulse [ppls_pulse id="pulse_id_here"]

Replace pulse_id_here with the pulse ID shown in the admin panel.

Inline Feedback Use inline feedback to collect quick reactions directly inside your content.

[ppls_question q="Was this helpful?" type="yesno"]

You can also use:

[ppls_question q="How do you feel about this?" type="emoji"]

Developer Hooks Plugiva Pulse provides filters to customize inline feedback behavior and extend response types.

ppls_inline_options Modify or add custom inline question types.

Each type is defined as an array of key → label pairs.

Example:

add_filter( 'ppls_inline_options', function( $options ) {

$options['rating'] = [ '1' => '⭐', '2' => '⭐⭐', '3' => '⭐⭐⭐', ];

return $options; });

Use in shortcode:

[ppls_question q="Rate this post" type="rating"]

Note: Validation is handled automatically based on defined options.

ppls_inline_feedback Modify the feedback message shown after submission.

Example:

add_filter( 'ppls_inline_feedback', function( $feedback ) {

return [ 'icon' => '✓', 'text' => 'Thanks for your feedback!', ]; });

ppls_inline_hash_window Control how long an inline session remains valid.

Default is 1 hour.

Example:

add_filter( 'ppls_inline_hash_window', function( $window ) { return 600; // 10 minutes });

Notes

Labels support safe HTML (sanitized via wp_kses_post)

Custom types automatically work with validation

No additional hooks are required for custom answer handling
