[#7785] How can I validate different fields at Registration?

Hi,
I tried your solution but doesn't work...can you tell me where I'm wrong?

This is the scenario:

1) cb_uname1 Text Field
2) cb_uname2 Text Field


in the cb_uname2 Text Field I have the follows values

Tab: Integration >> CB Code Field >> Validation

1) Code Validation = Enable
2) Code:

if (strcmp('[cb_uname1]', '[cb_uname2]')) {
return true;
}else{
return false;
}

3) Ajax Validation = Enable
4) Additional Fields: cb_uname1

thanks

Ensure CB is up to date with the latest build release then replace [cb_uname2] with [value]. That should work fine.

Unfortunately doesn't work

this is my code:

if (strcmp('[cb_uname1]','[value]') !== 0) {
return true;
}else{
return false;
}

this always returns true, even if the two fields are the same clearly there is something wrong here --> strcmp('[cb_uname1]','[value]').

I've tried with and without '' I mean --> strcmp('[cb_uname1]','[value]') and --> strcmp([cb_uname1],[value]) neither of them works.

I have

SO= MacOS Catalina 10.15
PHP 7.3.8
Mysql 8.0.17
Joomla 3.9.19
CB 2.4.2+build.2019.12.05.20.13.38.f766ba0fb
CB Code Field 2.0.0+build.2019.12.05.17.48.08.28f23544

What's wrong??? :blink:

No idea why you're using strcmp. The below should be sufficient to check that the two values are not the same

Code Validation: Enable
Code (PHP): Ajax Validation: Enable
Additional Fields: cb_uname1

That should validate to true if the current fields value does not match the value of the field cb_uname1.

Hi,
I've tried your solution but it doesn't work either, or better it works only in Edit Profile, not during the Registration Process but I need it in the registration process too.

Is it possible?

Thanks

It should work fine during registration assuming cb_uname1 is also on the registration page otherwise it's just going to be empty. Are both fields accessible on your registration page (the field the validation is on and cb_uname1)?
