[SOLVED] age check field

13 years 3 weeks ago - 13 years 1 week ago #161780 by ellare
[SOLVED] age check field was created by ellare
I've created a field that is required at registration where a user has to enter their Date Of Birth.

But what I really need is an age-checker. I do not want people signing up to use the site unless they are 21yrs or older (it's a site about alcoholic beverages).

How would that be implemented?

Thanks
LrG

You could set the minimum/maximum year for the date field to ensure the user is at least 18, they wouldn't be able to select anything less then that. Aside from that there's no custom validation methods for the date field.

You could try using CB Redirect incubator project and the on before registration trigger, condition the field, if it doesn't match appropriately then redirect back to registration. No idea how well this will work, but if you use the on before it'll stop the user from being created allowing you to have custom validation rules.

Krileon -


Your plugin worked for me!! I mean, really, any online age checker is going off the honesty of the person entering the information. But this provides a good way for me to redirect the user to the terms and conditions of the site :woohoo:
