[SOLVED] Add controls on some registration fields

13 years 4 months ago #147988 by ienna
I'm using community builder 1.3 and I have addedd into the registration two fields, that is two codes of a product, I would like to check these two fields so that nobody can register users with false codes, these codes are entered in a table created by me.
Is there a way to make this?
thank in advance

You could use a text field and adjust the validation method to use PERL regular expression and validate against a list of words/numbers. There's no way without developing a new fieldtype plugin to validate against your database. The below regex should do the trick.

[code:1]
/^STRING1|STRING2|STRING3|STRING4|ETC..$/
[/code:1]

ok I did it, but the problem is that the list of codes is continuously updated, at least once a day, is convenient use this type of control?

In this case you'll have to continuously update the field. Only other alternative is to develop a new fieldtype plugin, which is significantly more complicated if no development knowledge is present.
