Hello,
how to validate a custom email textfield as normally SuiteCRM use to do?
Thank you
Hi,
I don’t think you can do this through the Out of the box features in the CRM itself.
You’d have to do this through the code.
I imagine that you’d be able to do run some Custom Javascript on the field that fits your validation requirements.
A blog post by Andy shows how to add Validation for a meeting’s status: http://sugarmods.co.uk/how-to-add-custom-validation-to-form-fields-in-sugarcrm/
You may be able to re-purpose this for your E-mail field.
You can also have a look at the following issue related to email field validation:
https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/issues/1120
Your email validation might not be working due to the known bug where form can be saved and any email field required rule is ignored.
There is a fix proposed to this issue and it might be relevant to your question.
