Is it possible to set up error checking on the date fields in the custom fields area of the Events Tickets Plus plugin so that if someone types in the birth date that is beyond a certain date (based on today’s date) that an error appears? <\/p>\n

For example, If someone enters a date that means the child is over 12 then they are not eligible to purchase tickets to the event, as the tickets are aimed to be sold to children of ages 5-12, so the error checking would need to know the current date and then check the date that they enter and show an error if they are over 12.<\/p>\n

Is this possible? If not as a support request, could you recommend someone that already understands the Events Tickets Plus plugin to make a change?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1625083","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nError Checking within the Date field in the Custom Fields -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/error-checking-within-the-date-field-in-the-custom-fields\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Error Checking within the Date field in the Custom Fields -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Is it possible to set up error checking on the date fields in the custom fields area of the Events Tickets Plus plugin so that if someone types in the birth date that is beyond a certain date (based on today’s date) that an error appears?
