Tag: email

Hello useful internet people,

I have a template form in one of my add-ons for users to send events. In that form, I would like to include a mandatory email field for your PayPal-enabled email address. Then, that email would be saved in a backend user field created with the field ID: dbem_paypal_account. As someone with practically 0 coding knowledge, I have a lot of problems for this to work with add-on support, although it's hard to believe it's such a difficult task.

I am able to edit that template and the functions of my son hijo.php and I have discovered (I believe) how to validate that email field or, otherwise, an error appears. All I really need is for that email to be saved in the back-end field, which the user can not access.

I have a vomit code, which I'll include, but it's not pretty, so I suggest avoiding it altogether. I've been doing circles on this for the past few weeks, so any help is appreciated. Thank you!

function em_event_form_custom2 () {
?>
    

        <input type = "email" id = "dbem_em_paypal_account" name = "dbem_em_paypal_account"   />
        
        <! -->
    
    dbem_em_paypal_account, $ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'], dbem_em_paypal_account);
}


yes (isset ($ _REQUEST['event_rsvp'] )) {

yes (! isset ($ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] ) || $ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] == 0) {
$ EM_Event-> add_error (sprintf (__ ("Please accept the terms and conditions.", & # 39; Event Manager & # 39;)));
$ result2 = false;
}
}
returns $ result2;
}


add_filter (& # 39; em_event_save & # 39 ;, & # 39; custom_event_save & # 39 ;, 1,2);
function custom_event_save ($ result, $ EM_Event) {

// assuming that the user who is currently logged in is sending an event
yes (! empty ($ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] ) && is_user_logged_in ()) {
$ current_user = wp_get_current_user (); // get registered user details
update_user_meta ($ current_user-> ID, & # 39; dbem_em_paypal_account & # 39 ;, $ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] );
}

returns $ result;
}

note: Ignore the typo with the field ID in the code (dbem_em _…). I have fix it.
