Author Topic: Modifying validation rules (Read 2563 times)

I'm using CiviCRM v2.2 running standalone on a Fedora Core 10 Linux box.

When I try to import data into a website field of the form "civicrm.org", I get an error message complaining about the format. It's close enough to a valid URL for me - is there some easy way to modify the validation rule that's checking the URL format to allow such entries to be imported?

Thanks.

Comment out the line shown below:

Code: [Select]

static function url( $url, $checkDomain = false) 
    {
        $options = array( 'domain_check'    => $checkDomain,
                          'allowed_schemes' => array( 'http', 'https', 'mailto', 'ftp' ) );

        require_once 'Validate.php';
        //return Validate::uri( $url, $options );  <- comment out this line
    }

Sorry to open up an old thread but I'm having the same problem in 4.5.6, and the code in rule.php now looks like this:

Code: [Select]

  static function url($url) {
    //return (bool) filter_var($url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL);
  }

...which doesn't seem to have had the desired effect (ie. allowing www.wibble.org, rather than enforcing http://www.wibble.org) am I missing something?

OK so that's not the thing to do and means that pretty much anything fails the validation. I ended up just adding the http:// globally onto all the records. But I still think enforcing this is a bit draconian.
