 * Hello Support,
 * I’m preparing a form for users registration in my website and I would like to
   validate the zipcode with this format 0000-000.
 * How can I accomplish this?
 * Thanks

 * Based on your example from here: [https://docs.wpeverest.com/user-registration/docs/how-to-add-custom-validations-to-fields-programmatically/](https://docs.wpeverest.com/user-registration/docs/how-to-add-custom-validations-to-fields-programmatically/)
 * I’ve tested without success:
 * add_action( ‘user_registration_validate_zipcode’,’ur_validate_zipcode_field’,
   10,4);
    function ur_validate_zipcode_field($single_form_field, $data, $filter_hook,
   $form_id) { $field_label = isset( $data->label ) ? $data->label : ”; $value =
   isset( $data->value ) ? $data->value : ”; if( 1 === preg_match(‘/\b\d{4}(-\d{
   3})?\b/’, $value)) { add_filter( $filter_hook, function ( $msg ) use ( $field_label){
   return __( $field_label . ‘Erro!’, ‘user-registration’ ); }); } }`
 * Can you please help?

 * Hi [@shibby15](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shibby15/),
 * Thank you for writing in,
 * In the free version of the plugin, we do not have a specific field for Zipcode.
   If you are using the other input text field then the codes for validation do 
   not work because the fields name does not save with “user_registration_validate_zipcode”.
 * Could you please provide us your registration form link and mention it so that
   we can look into it and get back to you accordingly.
 * Regards!

 * Hello [@shresthauzwal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shresthauzwal/)
 * I’m using the input text default and changed the field name to zipcode. I’ve 
   also tried the example you shared using the field “text” and it worked.
 * My registration form is available in this URL: [https://wordpress-377373-1615575.cloudwaysapps.com/registo-de-utilizadores/](https://wordpress-377373-1615575.cloudwaysapps.com/registo-de-utilizadores/)
 * There you can check the field text and also the zipcode.
 * Thanks a lot for your help.

 * Hi [@shibby15](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shibby15/),
 * Thank you for writing back,
 * Could you please try the following code,
 *     ```
       add_action( 'user_registration_validate_text','ur_validate_text_field',10,4);
       function ur_validate_text_field($single_form_field, $data, $filter_hook, $form_id) {	
       	if( 'input_box_1627459889' === $data->field_name ) {
       	$field_label = isset( $data->label ) ? $data->label : '';
       	$value = isset( $data->value ) ? $data->value : '';
           $pattern = 'Place Your validation code here';
       	if( 1 === preg_match($pattern, $value ) ) {
       	    add_filter( $filter_hook, function ( $msg ) use ( $field_label ) {
       	        return __( $field_label . 'should not contain a  number.', 'user-registration' );
       	   });
       	}
       }
       }
       ```
   
 * You need to replace the **input_box_1627459889** with your field name.

 * Hello [@shresthauzwal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shresthauzwal/),
 * Replaced field name zipcode to input_box_1627459889,
 * Then updated functions.php of the childtheme with the code you shared but then
   I got broken website, so I removed the code. 🙁

 * Also, I tried to apply the pattern ‘/\b\d{4}(-\d{3})?\b/’to the field text, as
   the example code you shared worked:
 * `add_action( ‘user_registration_validate_text’,’ur_validate_text_field’,10,4);
   
   function ur_validate_text_field($single_form_field, $data, $filter_hook, $form_id){
   $field_label = isset( $data->label ) ? $data->label : ”; $value = isset( $data-
   >value ) ? $data->value : ”;
 *  if( preg_match(‘/\b\d{4}(-\d{3})?\b/’, $value ) ) {
    add_filter( $filter_hook,
   function ( $msg ) use ( $field_label ) { return __( $field_label . ‘Testing this’,‘
   user-registration’ ); }); } }
 * This pattern should have restrited the user input to the format _ _ _ _ – _ __
   but it didn’t worked.

 * Hi [@shibby15](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shibby15/),
 * Sorry for the delay,
 * We have well tested the code and provided the solution for you, it seems the 
   preg_match code is not appropriate so that your added code is making your site
   down.
 * Please use the following code to validate your input field with this format 0000-
   000.
 *     ```
       add_action( 'user_registration_validate_text','ur_validate_text_field',10,4);
       function ur_validate_text_field($single_form_field, $data, $filter_hook, $form_id) {
           if( 'input_box_1627459889' === $data->field_name ) {
               $field_label = isset( $data->label ) ? $data->label : '';
               $value = isset( $data->value ) ? $data->value : '';
               if ( !preg_match( '/^[0-9]{4}([- ]?[0-9]{3})?$/', $value ) ) {
                   add_filter( $filter_hook, function ( $msg ) use ( $field_label ) {
                       return __( $field_label . 'should contain 0000-000 format zipcode.', 'user-registration' );
                  });
               }
           }
       }
       ```

 * Hi there
 * Thank you for writing back,
 * Yes, you can change the “input_box_1627459889” with the “zipcode” field if your
   input field name is “zipcode”. For profile edit please use the following code
 *     ```
       add_action( 'user_registration_validate_user_registration_input_box_1627459889', 'ur_validate_text_field_in_profile_details', 10, 2 );
       function ur_validate_text_field_in_profile_details( $value ) {
        if ( !preg_match( '/^[0-9]{4}([- ]?[0-9]{3})?$/', $value ) ) {
        if ( 'yes' === get_option( 'user_registration_ajax_form_submission_on_edit_profile', 'no' ) ) {
        wp_send_json_error(
        array(
        'message' => __( 'should contain 0000-000 format zipcode.', 'user-registration' ),
        )
        );
        }else {
        ur_add_notice( __( 'should contain 0000-000 format zipcode.', 'user-registration' ), 'error' );
        }
        }
       }
       ```
   
 * Similarly, you need to change input_box_1627459889 with your field name. (please
   use latest version of the user registration plugin to support this code on your
   edit profile)

 * Hello [@shresthauzwal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shresthauzwal/),
 * Thank you for your support.
 * About User Registration form – It is working but accepts the user registration
   when he puts only 4 digits, I mean when it only meets the first segment of the
   pregmatch. Users can enter only the first 4 digits or the correct pattern.
 * About the Profile Details – not working here 🙁 I can share with you login data
   of a test user.
 * Thanks
