Hello, I am creating an event registration website for my client. The event is only for my clients’ employees, therefore I would like to limit the user e-mail input to (or validate it against) a specific domain name (eg. *@xyz.com). How can I do that?

Hi freshform,
You can use the WordPress is_email filter hook to perform custom email validation. There’s some example code in this gist:
https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/c3236ca17bfe3df5b3e5340183eb56c6
You can add the above to a functions plugin. The above filter function will be applied if you have the “Email Validation Level” option set to “WordPress Default” in Event Espresso > Registration Form > Reg Form Settings.

Josh, I have another question connected with the previous one – how do I change the validation error message (if the given e-mail is from outside the allowed domains)?

Hi freshform,
You can change any translatable string with a translation function:
https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-change-wording-with-poedit/#custom-function
The specific strings in this case are:
An error has occurred:<br />
Please enter a valid email address.
So in the above code you’ll include the following in the array of strings:
'An error has occurred:<br />' => 'Your replacement here<br />',
'Please enter a valid email address.' => 'Your replacement here',
