How to validate review form?

    I want to validate custom fields in standard comment form and in review form.
    I try to use:

    function verification_test( $commentdata ) {
    
    // for test
    if ( is_product() ) {
        $test = "This is product page";
    } else {
        $test = "This is NOT product page";
    }
    
    if( is_product() ) {
        if( ! isset( $_POST['chb_review_test'] ) ) {
            wp_die( '<strong>ERROR: </strong>you must accept required fields.' . $test . '<p><a href="javascript:history.back()">' . __( '&laquo; Back' ) . '</a></p>');
        }       
    } else {
        if( ! isset( $_POST['chb_comment_test'] ) ) {
            wp_die( '<strong>ERROR: </strong>you must accept required fields.' . $test . '<p><a href="javascript:history.back()">' . __( '&laquo; Back' ) . '</a></p>');
        }      
    }
    return $commentdata;
}

add_filter( 'preprocess_comment', 'verification_test' );

    Function is_product() not working – always returns “This is not product page”. And I can not validate my custom fields.
    Is any filter like preprocess_comment dedicated for review form?

    The same problem is probably with:
    add_action( 'comment_post', 'my_function' );

    Any ideas?

  • comment_post acts on a comment, and comment of course is not a product. You need to use get_comment to retrieve comment object, then identify the post which was commented (comment_post_ID), then test whether it is a product or not (is_product will not work here, you’ll need get_post_type).
