RSFrom Pro - Making Custom Validation

Post by lovejoomi » Wed Mar 27, 2024 2:14 am

Hey everyone.

I was thinking if it would be possible to make a Custom Validation on RSForm Pro for Submitters' IP address.

In TextBox field, we have a Validation called "Unique Field" which basically disallows the submission if an specific value is submitted before on the form.

I thought maybe there would be a possibility to make a rule so that if submitters IP was used to submit the form before, it would disallow the submission based on the database of the form from previous submissions.

You could create a custom validation rule:

In that rule you could add some SQL to check if the submitters ID has already been used in the database for that current forum ID.

That is correct but problem is since I have no coding skills, creating that module seems hard for me.

I was going to ask and see if anyone can guide me through that.

RS support team said they wont do it.
