Cimy User Extra Fields
No Validation Working (9 posts)

    I have set up minimum length=3 and max length=20 on all the text fields. I can leave them blank and the form/login stills allows me to register with no error.

    Did you uncheck 'Can be empty'?

    Yes. All my fields are unchecked and none of them will do validation if left blank or less than minimum length

    Looks like you have uncovered a bug.

    There are two sections of fields in the CIMY panel: WordPress fields and Extra fields.

    For me, the validation fails on the WP fields, but works on the Extra fields.

    I am using WP 3.3.1 and CIMY 2.3.4.

    Great. Thanks for validating.

    How do we get the developer to read this?

    There is this support link in the FAQ page of the plugin page in the WP repository.

    In the past, Marco has been very responsive to questions I have posted.

    Actually this is by design, WordPress fields' rules are validated only during registration but not in the profile.

    Not sure why I decided that, but probably because password can be empty for example (aka no change).

    Thanks for the explanation Marco.
