Message not displayed after blocked email registration

Hello @mgeorg45

Please try following code snippet to block and show message for blocked domains:

add_action( 'um_add_error_on_form_submit_validation', function( $array, $key, $args ){
    $blocked_domains = ['gmail.com','yahoo.com','aol.com'];
    if( 'user_email' == $key ){
        $email_arr = explode('@',$args[$key]);
        if( in_array( $email_arr[1], $blocked_domains)){
            UM()->form()->add_error( $key, __( 'We do not accept email from this domain.', 'ultimate-member' ) );
        }
    }

},2,3 );

You will have to replace domains in $blocked_domains = [‘gmail.com’,’yahoo.com’,’aol.com’]; as per your requirement.

Hello @aswingiri,

Thanks for the reply.
I tested the code in my functions.php file but I get the same outcome. Still, no message just refresh the page.

Update:
I had to remove the blocked domains from the WP Admin > Ultimate Member > Settings > Access > Other > Blocked Email Addresses.

Now everything works fine!
Again thanks for the reply.

@mgeorg45

What is the URL when you expect to get the error message?
Do you get a value of the err= ?

Have you used the UM Setting “Blocked Email Addresses (Enter one email per line)”?
Please post here in the Forum an example of an email address in this list which fails the error message.

This is a basic UM core function which should work without adding a code snippet.

Hello @missveronicatv,

Yes I did use the UM Setting Blocked Email Addresses (Enter one email per line).
The problem is that when a user registered with an email from a blocked domain, the page just refreshes to the homepage without an error message.
After adding the above snippet and removing the domains from UM Setting Blocked Email Addresses, everything works perfectly.

@mgeorg45

I’m interested to find out why the basic UM function of email blocking did not work as expected.

What was the format you used for blocking an email domain?

gmail.com
*gmail.com
*@gmail.com

The tooltip for the email block setting is:

To block an entire domain, use something like *@domain.com

Yes I did use *@domain.com

The problem was that that the registration was blocked but I wasn’t shown an error message. I just wanted to show an error message to the user to let him know why the registration failed.

@mgeorg45

I tried to do registrations with gmail.com email addresses with blocking set to *@gmail.com

I got the error message on top of the Registration form as expected:

We do not accept registrations from that domain.

I can not recreate the error.

Hello @missveronicatv,

As I said above, the problem is solved now.
That is the reason you can’t duplicate the error.

Thanks for letting us know how you’ve resolved the issue.

Thanks @missveronicatv, for extending help.
