fswa_normalize_object
Converts custom PHP objects in hook arguments into plain arrays for JSON serialization.
$
/ Signature
apply_filters( 'fswa_normalize_object', $data, $object )
/ When it fires
Fires for each PHP object encountered when serializing WordPress hook arguments to JSON — except closures, DateTimeInterface and Traversable objects, which are converted before this filter runs.
/ Parameters
| Name | In | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $data | param | mixed | yes | Current normalized value — `null` initially. Return an array to replace the object. |
| $object | param | object | yes | The PHP object to normalize (e.g. a `WPCF7_Submission`). Use `instanceof` or `get_class()` to pick yours. |
/ Returns
array|null Return an array to use as the object's representation; its values are normalized recursively and a `__type` key with the class name is added. Return anything else (leave `null`) to fall through to the default extraction: `get_data()`, then `jsonSerialize()`, then `get_properties()`, then the public properties./ Examples
Normalize a custom form submission object
add_filter( 'fswa_normalize_object', function ( $data, $object ) { if ( ! $object instanceof My_Form_Submission ) return $data; return [ 'form_id' => $object->get_form_id(), 'fields' => $object->get_fields(), ]; }, 10, 2 );
