Adding email verification in registration form was created by Stefan Schröder

Hi all,

I would like to make some custom changes to parts of the component and add email verification to the registration form of event booking pro. I found some php on web which I must modify, but currently I don't know, to which file I must add it. The goal for me would be, that if a registrant enters an invalid email adress in the registration form, a message appears that the email adress is invalid and the input is rejected,

This is the code I found.

Code:

function checkEmail($email) {
 // checks proper syntax
 // preg_match needs improvement!
 if(preg_match("/^( [a-zA-Z0-9] )+( [a-zA-Z0-9\._-] )*@( [a-zA-Z0-9_-] )+( [a-zA-Z0-9\._-] +)+$/" , $email)) {
  // gets domain name
  list($username,$domain)=split('@',$email);
  // checks for if MX records in the DNS
  if(!checkdnsrr($domain, 'MX')) {
   return false;
  }
  // attempts a socket connection to mail server
  if(!fsockopen($domain,25,$errno,$errstr,30)) {
   return false;
  }
  return true;
 }
 return false;
}

Code:

$email = trim($_POST['email']);  
if(!checkEmail($email)) { 
echo 'Invalid email address!';
}
else {
 echo 'Email address is valid';
}

Any help would be appreciated,
Regards
Stefan

Hi Stefan

The idea is creating a second email field and use validation rule to make the two fields become the same. Try to create a custom field, set Validation Rules property of that custom field to

Code:

validate[equals[email]] 

Then check it again to see how it goes ?

This is exactly what I will do.

If I remember correctly, you submitted a support ticket. Our support team is checking it. There is a javascript conflict on the site causes the validation / javascript in Events Booking doesn't work

We will update you when it is fixed. Please be patient and wait for us
