Required field in registration?

[LisaC]

I went into the page to try and set it so that "phone number" is not a required filed. I also tried to remove it but that failed badly lol.

How can I modify it so that when they register, their phone number is not mandatory?

 

Thanks :)

Did it not ask you in the installation if you wanted to make it required or not. Im not too sure as i installed via Fantastico.

I also installed via fantastico and no there was no where it asked that. Its not in admin (that i could find) either.

Instead of bumping you could try a search. See if the thread found HERE helps. If not do a search for required fields and I bet you will find one that will. It takes a few secs to run the search and a few minutes to find some threads.

I did try a search and didn't find the solution or didn't understand the replies given that is why i posted it. I always search before asking cause I know the forum is busy and people don't have time to reply to the same thing over and over again :)

Thanks for the link I will go see it now.

That's an interesting solution- I'd like to make the birthdate entry optional but I'm also using the birthday enhanced contrib. If I use this solution will it interfere without the forced formatting I wonder?

Administration/Configuration/Minimum Values/Telephone Number:

Delete the value and UPDATE as blank.

 

English.php:

define('ENTRY_TELEPHONE_NUMBER_TEXT', '*');

 

Delete the *

define('ENTRY_TELEPHONE_NUMBER_TEXT', '');

 

Works for me anyway.
