Gravity Forms comes with the ability for users to save and continue forms.
By default forms will automatically expire after 30 days, and this can be customised using the gform_incomplete_submissions_expiration_days filter.
Despite the the filter being named “days” you can actually set the expiration to less than days by returning a floating-point number – for example 0.0416666666666667 for 1 hour.
The example below shows how to set the expiration to 1 hour.
If you’re not sure where to place this code I highly recommend you read How to create a WordPress plugin for your custom functions.
add_filter( 'gform_incomplete_submissions_expiration_days', 'expire_saved_one_hour', 1, 10 );
function expire_saved_one_hour ( $expiration_days ) {
return 0.0416666666666667;
}
