People visiting our store enter telephone numbers in all formats including prefixing 0, 00, +(countrycode).
By default(and strangely) Opencart registeration field for telephone allows alphanumeric values upto 32 characters in length.
Could anyone guide how can I go about setting the length to 10 digits on registeration and checkout pages.
You need to edit your register controller File. You can find your register controller file here catalog/controller/account/register.php
Then in this file you can see below function in this file.
protected function validate() {
You can change below code :
if ((utf8_strlen($this->request->post['telephone']) < 3) || (utf8_strlen($this->request->post['telephone']) > 32)) {
To
if ((utf8_strlen($this->request->post['telephone']) < 3) || (utf8_strlen($this->request->post['telephone']) > 10)) {
You need to change validation message as well. Just open this file :
catalog/language/english/account/register.php
$_['error_telephone'] = 'Telephone must be between 3 and 32 characters!';
To
$_['error_telephone'] = 'Telephone must be between 3 and 10 characters!';
I have the same code in my website, what it's supposed to do is just accept numbers but this code allows alphabets to be written as well.
