    Default Age Restriction...

    Ok, I'm currently looking to apply some sort of 'age restriction' to my website. By this I mean that people will have to be over 18 to create an account.

    Is this possible?

    I've had a quick search of the forums, but not found an answer... yet.

    Any advice welcome.

    Since the DOB is one of the fields on the registration form, I would guess that you could write some sort of routine could check the age and make sure it is >18.

    I'm not a coder so I can't offer anything further on this.

    Maybe one of the DEV's has an answer.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I was thinking of writting some sort of field validation code, but didn't want to waste any time if ZenCart already catered for my needs (or if a contribution was available).

    I tried editing the \includes\modules\pages\login\jscript_form_check.php

    Any idea why this code wont show the value of DOB entered by user?

    Code:
    //CODE ADDED
    function check_age(field_name, field_age, message)
    {
    	var today =new Date;
    	//var enteredDate=field_name;
    	//alert("form.elements[field_name]");
    	var TestVar = form.elements[field_name];
    	alert ("You typed: " + TestVar);
    	if ((today.getTime() - form.elements[field_name]) < 10)
    	{
    //	alert("Wow");
    	}
    }
    All it says is
    You typed: object HTMLInput Element
    Thanks

    If you are just loging in you don't need a dob because you're already registered and just require an e-mail address and password.

    Try your code in pages -> create_account -> jscript_form_check.php

    Fine, but when you say login and fill fields etc for account registration and say Submit the file which gets called is jscript_form_check.php placed in pages/login

    That file is also located in the create_account folder.

    When you create an account (register) then and click submit the file getting called is in pages -> create_account

    When you login and click the login button the file getting called is pages -> login

    Although Login and Create Account appear on the same page they are actually handled by two different forms.
