Hello useful people on the Internet,
I have a standard form in one of my plugins to allow users to submit events. On this form, I would like to include a mandatory email field for their email address enabled by PayPal. Then this email will be saved in a user field already created with the field ID: dbem_paypal_account. As a person with virtually no coding know-how, I have a lot of trouble making sure that it works with plug-in support, even though it's hard to believe that this Is such a difficult task.
I am able to edit this template and the functions.php of my child theme and I understood (I think) how to validate this email field, otherwise an error will appear. All I need is that this email is saved in the back-end field that the user can not access.
I've got vomit code, which I will include, but it's not pretty, so I suggest avoiding it completely. It's been a few weeks since we're going around in circles, so any help is welcome. Thank you!
function em_event_form_custom2 () {
?>
dbem_em_paypal_account, $ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'], dbem_em_paypal_account);
}
if (isset ($ _REQUEST['event_rsvp'] )) {
if (! isset ($ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] ) || $ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] == 0) {
$ EM_Event-> add_error (sprintf (__ ("Please accept conditions && conditions.", & Nbsp; Events-manager & # 39;)));
$ result2 = false;
}
}
return $ result2;
}
add_filter (& # 39; em_event_save & # 39 ;, custom_event_save & # 39 ;, 1,2);
function custom_event_save ($ result, $ EM_Event) {
// assuming that the currently logged in user submits an event
if (! empty ($ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] ) && is_user_logged_in ()) {
$ current_user = wp_get_current_user (); // get the details of the logged in user
update_user_meta ($ current_user-> ID, & dbem_em_paypal_account & # 39 ;, $ _REQUEST['dbem_em_paypal_account'] )
}
return $ result;
}
Note: Ignore the typo with the id field in the code (dbem_em _…). I have already corrected it.
