I worked it out.
add_action( 'user_profile_update_errors', 'validate_steamid_field' );
function validate_steamid_field(&$errors, $update = null, &$user = null)
{
if (!preg_match("/^STEAM_[0-5]:[01]:d+$/", $_POST['_bbp_steamid']))
{
$errors->add('empty_steamid', "<strong>ERROR</strong>: Please Enter a valid SteamID");
}
}
Do you know of one that does work? Maybe even include the steps that are needed?
Thanks.
It’s not “incorrect”. Its just not “complete”. I am using Cimy Extra User Fields, I changed forum-user-edit.php to include the new field. I then set the field in the admin panel with a value which is being populated correctly however I was unable to find the function where all the information is being saved in bbPress when “Update User” is being clicked so I cant put in the code needed to save the Cimy fields.
They aren’t mirrored and if the extra fields are manually added into the theme then on update they aren’t set. I have looked through a lot of the bbPress files and can’t work out where I should add some custom code so on user profile update it will also update the custom entries I added.
Any help would be much appreciated.
