You should upgrade to cpg1.5.12 immediately.

To make all user defined required, open register.php, comment out/delete

Code Select Expand

array('label', $lang_register_php['optional_info'])
and

Code Select Expand

$form_data = array_slice($form_data, 0, count($form_data)-1);

find

Code Select Expand

    $profile1 = $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile1');
    $profile2 = $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile2');
    $profile3 = $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile3');
    $profile4 = $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile4');
    $profile5 = $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile5');
    $profile6 = $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile6');
    $agree_disclaimer = $superCage->post->getEscaped('agree');
and replace with

Code Select Expand

    $profile1 = $CONFIG['user_profile1_name'] != '' ? trim(get_post_var('user_profile1')) : $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile1');
    $profile2 = $CONFIG['user_profile2_name'] != '' ? trim(get_post_var('user_profile2')) : $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile2');
    $profile3 = $CONFIG['user_profile3_name'] != '' ? trim(get_post_var('user_profile3')) : $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile3');
    $profile4 = $CONFIG['user_profile4_name'] != '' ? trim(get_post_var('user_profile4')) : $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile4');
    $profile5 = $CONFIG['user_profile5_name'] != '' ? trim(get_post_var('user_profile5')) : $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile5');
    $profile6 = $CONFIG['user_profile6_name'] != '' ? trim(get_post_var('user_profile6')) : $superCage->post->getEscaped('user_profile6');


If you want to show an error message before the form will be submitted, open register.php, find

Code Select Expand

            if (isset($lang_register_php[$element[1].'_warning2']) == TRUE) {
                $warning2 = '<div id="'.$element[1].'_warning2" class="cpg_message_validation formFieldWarning" style="display:none;">' . $lang_register_php[$element[1].'_warning2'] . '</div>';
            } else {
                $warning2 = '';
            }
below, add

Code Select Expand

            if ($element[1] == 'user_profile1') {
                $warning1 = '<div id="user_profile1_warning1" class="cpg_message_validation formFieldWarning" style="display:none;">';
                $warning1 .= 'The ' . $CONFIG['user_profile1_name'] . ' mustn\'t be empty!';
                $warning1 .= '</div>';
                $warning2 = '';

http://www.empireballroom.ca/Coppermine/login.php

[Αndré]

It's in the language file lang/english.php.

[crazysved]

Thank you for all your help!

Andre
Can you explain what you mean on the first step, Comment out/delete?  Do I delete those first to lines you have at the beginning?

Thanks

[crazysved]

the way i did it was found the lines of code he was talking about and surrounded them with /** **/ to comment them out.
like so

Code Select Expand


/**array('label', $lang_register_php['optional_info'])**/
/**$form_data = array_slice($form_data, 0, count($form_data)-1);**/

you can either do that or remove them entirely

to find lines of code on my windows pc in dreamweaver i held down ctrl and pressed f then copied the original lines of code into the find box and pressed find next or find all, that should let you find the lines of code.
hope it works for you too.

[Αndré]

Just delete that lines or comment them out as described in the PHP docs: http://php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.comments.php

[travelbuff]

Thanks, that worked!

Hello

I tried to enter the code for the mandatory fields below and apparently I did something wrong so I backed out all the code but now when I try to register I get this error; PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ' ' (T_STRING) in register.php on line 211

Here is what I have on 211              if (isset($lang_register_php[$element[1].'_warning2']) == TRUE) {

What did I not copy and paste correctly.  I do not see anything.

Thanks

[travelbuff]

Thanks for the link, is the correct register.php code?

[ron4mac]

Don't know your version.  Find it here:  https://sourceforge.net/p/coppermine/code/HEAD/tree/tags

Though, it looks more like an issue with whatever you are using for an editor inserting bad (as far as PHP is concerned) characters.
