Custom site registration form

Custom site registration form

Hi all,

I've been battling with a custom site registration form and just as I thought it would work - nothing.

The client requires that certain fields are required depending on whether other choices have been made. So if choice A is "yes" then choices B and C should be visible and required.

I've been hacking signup_form.php and signup.php to add and arrange standard and custom profile fields as well as fiddle with the form logic (visibility of different sections on/off) and bypass the client-side validation for fields that are currently invisible.

But when I click on the submit button the page reloads, no validation complaints, nothing.

All the fields I create are of the same types as the custom user profile fields (using advcheckbox for checkbox items).

You can see and test the site at here. 

Debugging mode is on full and I'm not seeing anything complaining about anything - it just doesn't work. auth.log has one entry at the time for a registration attempt but I don't think that's relevant.

Can anyone give tips as to how to get the system to talk to me? Any experiences to share with similar endeavours? All insights greatly appreciated.

Thanks

David

Svar: Custom site registration form

Update:

It's complaining about null values being written to the db. The value in question is the first custom select element but I can read and manipulate that in the validation function and the output buffer below shows that there is a value to the data.

The data with field id == 3 is [profile_field_employerType] => municipality

Can anyone offer an explanation?


Thanks

I'm required do the same thing with our sign up page. Did you just edit the php file with your own JS code to achieve this?


Thanks, 


Andy
