Mandatory field in form… not mandatory

    Hi,

    I’ve added a field in my registration form, called “URL de votre book EtoileCasting” as in https://actu.etoilecasting.com/evenements-a-venir/chant-casting-avec-renaud-hantson

    I’d like it to be mandatory, so I’ve added this to my functions.php file :

    function em_validate($result, $EM_Event){
    if (!is_user_logged_in() && $_REQUEST[‘booking_comment’] == ”){
    $EM_Event->add_error(‘Merci de remplir votre nom, mail, téléphone et URL de votre book en ligne EtoileCasting.’);
    $result = false;
    }
    return $result;
    }
    add_filter(’em_event_validate’,’em_validate’, 1, 2);

    But the field still isn’t mandatory.
    The strange thing is that I’ve done the same for the user field (changing the name of the field in the request for user_name) and it works fine.

    Please note that I use the “non-logged in” mode of the plugin.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Hi Deborah,

    Because you’re using a different type of text field (textarea) for booking_comment, it needs to be checked differently.

    Replacing

    if (!is_user_logged_in() && $_REQUEST['booking_comment'] == ''){

    with

    if (!is_user_logged_in() && !strlen(trim($_REQUEST['booking_comment']))){

    should work.

    Hi,
    Well, it didn’t ??
    I’ve added this to my functions.php file as you suggested :

    function em_validate($result, $EM_Event){
    if (!is_user_logged_in() && !strlen(trim($_REQUEST[‘booking_comment’]))){
    $EM_Event->add_error(‘Merci de remplir votre nom, mail, téléphone et URL de votre book en ligne EtoileCasting.’);
    $result = false;
    }
    return $result;
    }
    add_filter(’em_event_validate’,’em_validate’, 1, 2);

    and the whole page became white.

    Thanks anyway.

    maybe you can try

    if (!is_user_logged_in() && empty($_REQUEST['booking_comment']) ){

    instead ?
