[vekia]

it is possible, if I were you i will change Validate.php class (classes/Validate.php)

 

there is a function which checking birthdate format:  public static function isBirthDate($date)

 

add there if condition to check age:
 

if (date('Y')-$birth_date[1]<=18)
    return false;  

final code of isBirtDate function:

	public static function isBirthDate($date)
	{
		if (empty($date) || $date == '0000-00-00')
			return false;
		if (preg_match('/^([0-9]{4})-((?:0?[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))-((?:0?[1-9])|(?:[1-2][0-9])|(?:3[01]))([0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2})?$/', $date, $birth_date))
		{
		    if (date('Y')-$birth_date[1]<=18)
		        return false;  
			if ($birth_date[1] > date('Y') && $birth_date[2] > date('m') && $birth_date[3] > date('d'))
				return false;
			return true;
		}
		return false;
	}

voila

How you can do it if everybody can cheat.

[vekia]

that's correct, but in some countries you have to block possibility to "watch" or "order" adult contents.

May i know where you live?

here, in europe, in several countries we have really weirdy law in some cases (like cookies notification: LOL)

[amodkarmarkar]

Thank you Vekia it helped.

 

Tuk 66: Even though it is needed.

 

Again Vekia: I am from india. It is not about adult site. Here technically online purchaser must be 18 and above. Some Obey some dont.

hi vekia

 

this condition is not really accurate.

We are now for example in 2014 and let say some1 turned 18 last or any oder day this year. the condition wont work. It is now taking into account only customers that have been born until 31 - Dec - 1995

the conndition must be written according to entire date not only year

 

if (date('Y')-$birth_date[1]<=18)

[sooroos]

the right code for this seems to be this one 

public static function isBirthDate($date)
{
if (empty($date) || $date == '0000-00-00')
return false;
if (preg_match('/^([0-9]{4})-((?:0?[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))-((?:0?[1-9])|(?:[1-2][0-9])|(?:3[01]))([0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2})?$/', $date, $birth_date))
{
   if ((floor((time() - strtotime($date))/31556926))<18)
       return false;  
if ($birth_date[1] > date('Y') && $birth_date[2] > date('m') && $birth_date[3] > date('d'))
return false;
return true;
}
return false;
}

i have tested and it works

[sooroos]

it worked for 1.5 but seems like it wont work for 1.6

 

edit: it works with my code in 1.6 too the problem is that i couldnt override the class. i have modified the original file

Thank you, works perfectly. Only need to change the error message log(if you are not 18 years old), but that's no problem.

Hi,

 

Could you please explain how do you change the error message log only if the user isn't 18 years old ?

 

Thank you

[vekia]

you can do it with code like:

if (Validate::isBirthDate($date)==false) {
echo "you aren't 18 years old";
}

Thank you for your answer !

But could you precise me where I have to write this ? Because .tpl files don't support php code...

[vekia]

but i don't know what you're trying to achieve

please shed some more light on this

[Nanou2301]

For example, if an user isn't 18 years old and try to create an account, the error message says "you aren't 18 years old".

ve a tu pagina/translations/es o en/errors.php y busca la linea 736 donde dice Fecha de nacimiento inválida

cambialo por Debe tener 18 años de Edad para poder Registrarte en nuestra Tienda o algo asi. cierra guardas los cambios y listo

lo hice asi y me funciona de maravilla claro con el codigo que ustedes me dieron.

so, you followed guidelines that i mentioned severa posts before?

an answer for your question is there

just follow guidelines, apply code that i suggested to use (and sooroos) and it will work

i don't understand

please in english here

[paez903]

sorry was not my intention, first of all go to your website via FTP, and seeks the following address: name of your page / translations / en / errors.php and Find the line where it says 736 invalid Birthdate 

By change it must be 18 years of age to check in our store or message you want it to say. Guard changes and ready. 

 

I did it that way and it works to perfection and use the story to the code that provided in this topic.

Hi can you tell me if this Validate.php has to be edited with Notepad++ only or it can be edited with regular notepad also?

Edited November 22, 2014 by iip (see edit history)

[vekia]

Hi can you tell me if this Validate.php has to be edited with Notepad++ only or it can be edited with regular notepad also?

 

better to edit with notepad++ because it will handle proper coding of file.

in some cases simple notepad can change the file encoding and you will have little troubles with BOM (weirdy chars at the begining of the file). it can affect many things.

[paez903]

Cheers for that I do not complicate sending the file to copy it and sin as it appears therein are indications that must do to detail.

Thank you, yes i think i recently had troubles when editing with just notepad so i had to restore the language to fix it.

 

So in order to set limitation to age on my website i just have to edit validate.php file the way you wrote on the begining of this thread right?

[KevinNash]

 

you can do it with code like:

if (Validate::isBirthDate($date)==false) {
echo "you aren't 18 years old";
}

 

Hi

 

I tried to place that code on several places in Validate.php but I got an error each time.

 

Can you give me the full piece of code master Vekia ?

[vondrys]

Hi, I'm using pres 1.6 and it doesn't work for me too....

[Kai2040]

where can i find the validate.php file? I have looked in override/classes and theres nothing.

Edited May 10, 2015 by Kai2040 (see edit history)

[visualcd]

Sorry to revive old topic. I use PS 1.6 and it worked for me.

 

Just want to say Thank you !

 

 

it is possible, if I were you i will change Validate.php class (classes/Validate.php)

 

there is a function which checking birthdate format:  public static function isBirthDate($date)

 

add there if condition to check age:
 

if (date('Y')-$birth_date[1]<=18)
    return false;  

final code of isBirtDate function:

	public static function isBirthDate($date)
	{
		if (empty($date) || $date == '0000-00-00')
			return false;
		if (preg_match('/^([0-9]{4})-((?:0?[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))-((?:0?[1-9])|(?:[1-2][0-9])|(?:3[01]))([0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2})?$/', $date, $birth_date))
		{
		    if (date('Y')-$birth_date[1]<=18)
		        return false;  
			if ($birth_date[1] > date('Y') && $birth_date[2] > date('m') && $birth_date[3] > date('d'))
				return false;
			return true;
		}
		return false;
	}

voila
