Hello,

I’ve many spam on my forum so i want exclude all email .ru

I’ve added on my function.php, this code :

function my_acf_validate_email( $valid, $value, $field, $input ){
	if( !$valid ) {
		return $valid;
	}
	$email = explode($_POST["acf"]["field_5775908e70ce0"], "@");
	if(preg_match("/(.*).ru$/", $email) || preg_match("/(.*).co.pl$/", $email)){
		$valid = __("error", "monsite");	
	}

	if(email_exists($_POST["acf"]["field_5775908e70ce0"])){
		$valid = __("error.", "monsite");
	} 
	return $valid;
}

But it’s not working.
Any idea ?

Thanks for your help
Regards

Hi @triixx

It seems the way you were using the explode() function is not correct. Instead of like this:

$email = explode($_POST["acf"]["field_5775908e70ce0"], "@");

It should be like this:

$email = explode("@", $value);

Because this issue is more related to PHP, kindly visit PHP community instead for further support.

I hope this helps 🙂
