How to make fields mandatory (required) in Vendor Registration form

[Sam]

How can I make some of the built-in field required? such as First Name, store phone etc.? I don’t mind to use the Ultimate version if there is an easier way than coding.
I am not referring to custom fields.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for get in touch with us.

Well, Ultimate not even has option for this.

This can be possible to achieve in two ways –

1. Template Override
2. Custom coding

Please know me which fields you want to set required, I will give you custom code for this.

Thank you

thank you for your response.
I am trying to make First and Last name required.

Super!
Where would that file be located? sorry, I am a bit of a novice with wordpress.

HI,

Add this code to your child theme’s functions.php –

add_filter( 'wcfm_membership_registration_fields', function( $registration_fields ) {
	if( isset( $registration_fields['first_name'] ) ) {
		$registration_fields['first_name']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'required' => 1 );
	}
	if( isset( $registration_fields['last_name'] ) ) {
		$registration_fields['last_name']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'required' => 1 );
	}
	return $registration_fields;
}, 50 );

Thank You

Thank you very much. That did the trick.
However, the code change did not affect Vendor Registration form: https://martezone.com/vendor-register/
can you advise?

this is great and works on the vendor registration or for first name and last name however if i try to add State and City to the list of required fieds it does not work?

add_filter( 'wcfm_membership_registration_fields', function( $registration_fields ) {
	if( isset( $registration_fields['first_name'] ) ) {
		$registration_fields['first_name']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'required' => 1 );
	}
	if( isset( $registration_fields['last_name'] ) ) {
		$registration_fields['last_name']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'required' => 1 );
	}
	if( isset( $registration_fields['state'] ) ) {
		$registration_fields['state']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'required' => 1 );
	}
	if( isset( $registration_fields['city'] ) ) {
		$registration_fields['city']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'required' => 1 );
	}
	return $registration_fields;
}, 50 );

how to make that work?
