Hi everyone,
I have a couple of CFv5 installations where the forms are being abused with submissions from emails with .ru email addresses (i.e.name@xyz.ru). How do I setup email validation where if the email address has .ru extension the form will not submit?
I am not a programmer so if the setup requires code, I would appreciate step-by-step instructions.
Thank you in advance for you assistance!
Jose

Hi Jose,
In v5 I think that you will need some PHP code to test the email address in the data:

if(strpos($this->data["email_field_name"], ".ru") !== false){
//redirect
}in v7 there is a validation rule for "does not contain", which you can use to block certain string
Hi Max.
Thanks for the info. I looked on several places and couldn't figure out where to put it. If I recall correctly (I might be incorrect), it should not go in the Form Code tab because that gets rewritten every time the form is edited.
Where do I add the PHP code?
Thanks for your help,
Jose
