This is a feature request. I want an option to have input field comparison so that a user must type in their email address twice.
This is important because email is our only “delivery” method. If they register with the wrong email address, they don’t get their registration, even though they paid. I noticed this when a patron typed in @yahooo.com
thanks

Hello again, take a look at this tutorial:
https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/e39ba6aa9ec60a59fc93
That will setup the Mailcheck resource which checks for misspellings in common email addresses (e.g. hotmail.com, gmail.com, yahoo.com)
It works with Event Espresso 4.6.x and up.
Thanks

Lorenzo,
That’s very cool! Thank you for that.
While that works for domain names, it doesn’t help with user names. If they type loreno@yahoo.com, it won’t raise a flag.
If they have to type their full address twice, though, we can be more sure that they have entered their correct address.

Alright, we have a new feature request for an email registration form question.
In the mean time, would something like this work?

Thanks for creating the feature request and for the suggestion.
Which file could I add the code to?

Hi, you would need to create some new coding similar to what I shared here:
