    Hi there,

    in my telephone field the user has to insert the phone number with the international prefix.

    Is it possible to validate the field before it get sent to Saleforce, and be sure that the prefix is there? So that I can also show an error message if the user didn’t insert the number correctly?

    Thanks a lot,

    Simone

    Hi there,

    I found the solution in the documentation :’)

    Here what worked for me:

    // Check if phone number has internazional prefix
function check_international_prefix( $error, $name, $val, $field ){
    
    if ( $name == 'phone' ){

        $phone = $val;

        if ( strpos( $phone, '+39' ) === 0 || strpos( $phone, '0039' ) === 0 ) {
            $error['valid'] = true;
        } else {
            $error['valid'] = false;
            $error['message'] = 'Inserisci anche il prefisso internazionale +39.';
        }

    }

    return $error;
}
add_filter( 'sfwp2l_validate_field', 'check_international_prefix', 10, 4 );

    Thanks a lot and sorry,

    Simone

    That’s a relief, I thought I was missing something obvious. Mistakes are fine. 😉
