Contact Form 7 Confirm Email Field

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

0 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 14 days ago and the previous band took 2.2 years to cross, so the real count is still just under 2K.

   I generated the tag using the email name field to check for a match and it will not work. Every form submission with unmatched email addresses went through with no errors. I tried tweaking the tag to see if it can be resolved but it doesn’t work. Not sure why it wont work but I will have to deactivate this plugin and delete it.

   I really like this very efficient and easy plugin. Some code should be added to get the full features : – A RED text saying that the email is wrongly written. – Style completely similar to the email field of CF7. Hope this helps ! And thank you to Author to adapt his code more or less as described, or better… (Code bellow is partially given by KliffBlack) ———————————————————- ———- Here is the code and where to put it ———- ———————————————————- <<<< Getting the message about wrong match >>>> 1. Open the php file –> Named : contact-form-7-confirm-email.php –> In folder : […]wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7-confirm-email-feild (yes, f e i l d, this is a typo from the author of the plug in) 2. Add the filter: –> What : add_filter( ‘wpcf7_messages’, ‘confirm_email_messages’); –> Where : at line 24 (for example, must be with the others) 3. Add the function it refers to : –> What : //add error message function confirm_email_messages($messages) { $messages[‘invalid_confirm_email’] = array( ‘description’ => __(‘The email addresses do not match.’), ‘default’ => __(‘The email addresses do not match.’), ); return $messages; } –> Where : at line 109 (for example, must be outside an existing function. <<<< Making the confirm_email input field look like the email one >>>> What : $class .= ‘ ‘.wpcf7_form_controls_class( $tag->type, ‘wpcf7-text’ ); Where : at line 50 This topic was modified 9 years, 9 months ago by darlio.

   I submitted below comment on an open support request that is about 2 months old: This seems like it would be a really nice plugin if the author would maintain/fix it. I am NOT a coder, but I waded into this because I really think this sort of validation is valuable. I found the comment by aswitahidayat to be correct. There was no message in the code for invalid_confirm_email. Digging back into a much older support thread, I found this: add_filter( ‘wpcf7_messages’, ‘confirm_email_messages’); function confirm_email_messages($messages) { $messages[‘invalid_confirm_email’] = array( ‘description’ => __(‘The email addresses do not match.’), ‘default’ => __(‘The email addresses do not match.’), ); return $messages; } After some fiddling around, I determined where to insert the “add_filter…” and “function…” pieces. Plugin seems to work now with WPv4.5.2. What I don’t understand is why the author says he fixed this some 8 months ago, but the above fix is not in the plugin I installed today. And the same problem is reported 2 months ago. I would love to up this rating to 5-stars, and I will if I become convinced that the author is properly responding to issues and committing fixes he says in support are done, but in fact are NOT in the plugin when downloaded.
