Hello, I extended the forum validation and created a separate function to match a specific layout. It is working fine, however the core forum validation error messages are weird. Not sure how I broke them, any help would be great!
MY_Form_validation in applications/library/
Code:
<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed.');
class MY_Form_validation extends CI_Form_validation {
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
// matches_pattern()
// Ensures a string matches a basic pattern
// # numeric, ? alphabetical, ~ any character
function matches_pattern($str, $pattern) {
$characters = array(
'[', ']', '\\', '^', '$',
'.', '|', '+', '(', ')',
'#', '?', '~' // Our additional characters
);
$regex_characters = array(
'\[', '\]', '\\\\', '\^', '\$',
'\.', '\|', '\+', '\(', '\)',
'[0-9]', '[a-zA-Z]', '.' // Our additional characters
);
$pattern = str_replace($characters, $regex_characters, $pattern);
if (preg_match('/^' . $pattern . '$/', $str)) return TRUE;
return FALSE;
}
}
Language File under lanugage/english/
Code:
<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed.');
$lang['matches_pattern'] = "The %s field does not match the required pattern.";
Again, the actual validation of my custom script is working fine, however the core validation error messages are breaking
