custom field validation

[sujay paul, geändert vor 11 Jahren.]

Hi,

I have add a custom field in liferay 6.1 create account screen .
the new field is "Phone Number"
But i can not add validation for this custom field such as the Phone number should start with 9 ,8 or 7 as well as the length should not more than 10 digit etc.
In future i will add more custom field with validation.
How can i do it?

I had create a hook for it & modify the create_account.jsp page & add this chunk of code to display it
<!-- add for phone -->
<liferay-ui:custom-attribute className="com.liferay.portal.model.User"
classPK="<%= 0l %>"
editable="<%= true %>"
label="<%= true %>"
name="Phone No"
/>


Please help.

You need to override action class for create account . If i am not wrong then it is CreateAccountAction.java ..
Override class using hook and your problem should resolved.

I recommend doing Jitendra's suggestion for a server side check and if you want to provide real-time error handling also, then do the input check client side with javascript.

Please help.

Try the following:

<aui:script use="liferay-form">
         Liferay.Form.register(
             {
                 id: '<portlet:namespace />fm',
                fieldRules: [
                     {
                         body: '',
                         custom: false,
                         errorMessage: 'Please enter the company name.',
                       fieldName: '<portlet:namespace />ExpandoAttributeName',
                        validatorName: 'required'
                    }
                ]
            }
        );
    </aui:script>

hope this will help...

Its a bug in liferay.

Hope it will fixe in future.
