 * Hi,
 * I need the form to check the email.
 * I created 2 cells where the user enters his email twice, this is to avoid typing
   errors.
 * Another solution also the best, which sends an email to the sender and must click
   on the link to validate it.
 * On the web I found this page [https://contactform7.com/2015/03/28/custom-validation/](https://contactform7.com/2015/03/28/custom-validation/)
   I entered the code in the functions.php file, but it doesn’t work
 * Thanks

 * Hi.
 * I lost two hours today on this page
    [https://contactform7.com/2015/03/28/custom-validation/](https://contactform7.com/2015/03/28/custom-validation/)
   because of an error.
 * Replace the priority from “20” to “5” and it will work.
 * This page is not up to date !!!
