Hello EE Team
After a law change we need to validate a given(filled in) date in the ticket registration form. But only if it concerns certain events. For example, if the string “WAB 2” is in the event title, then we need to check if a filled in date date is later/ starts after 2019/12/31 and alert “no registration needed”.

I already do some individual validation in the functions.php like jQuery(document).ready(function() {

jQuery(“input.ee-reg-qstn-20”).attr(“maxLength”, 3);
err_msg1 = “blabla”;
jQuery(“.ee-reg-qstn-zip”).attr(“data-msg”, err_msg1);

Can you give us a hint?
Thanks a lot!
Markus

Hi Markus,

One thing you could do is add & adapt this code to your site:

You can add the above to a functions plugin or if available, into your WordPress theme’s functions.php file.

What that will do is add an additional CSS class to the registration form page’s body tag. So you’ll be able to write jQuery that targets only events with the string WAB 2 by starting your selector like this:

$('body[class*=wab-2]')
