Checkout Manager allows you to set validation rules for certain standard fields (name, address 1 & 2, email) and for custom fields. Validation rules can only be applied to text box field types where buyers enter information.
You can select from four different validation rules:
- Disable: removes all validation of the field input
- Email: checks input for valid email pattern; note this does not verify that the email entered exists or is genuine—only that it follows the standard email address pattern (X@X[dot]XX)
- Number: checks that input is numerical
- Number range: checks that input is numerical and between a stated range (for example 123 is between 0 and 200).
To enable validation rules:
- From the Checkout Manager, click the "Page Configuration" link.
- Click the tab with the field you wish to modify, select the field in the Page Sections table, and click "Edit".
- Click "Next".
- Select the validation rule you wish to apply:
- Disable
- Email
- Number
- Number range (you will also need to enter values for the range with this option)
- Click "Finish".
- Click "Save" when finished or "Preview" to save and view your changes.
- Return to the Store Manager and publish your order settings to publish your changes to your checkout pages.
