Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Just wanted to confirm whether you considered the following option in Amelia:

Hello,

I am afraid Amelia doesn't have this facility at the moment.

You can submit this here as a feature request:

https://wpamelia.cnflx.io/boards/feature-requests

In addition to my previous email, you can consider the following:

You can edit the email field in the database, adding a unique constraint, like this:

ALTER TABLE myTableName ADD CONSTRAINT UQ_MyTable_Email UNIQUE (emailColumnName)

And it will not allow anyone to add the same email address if it already exists in the table.

Hello,

I understood your query but Amelia doesn't include this at the moment, I am afraid.

Hello there.

Email verification is not possible with Amelia, but there's a workaround you can apply that will check the email. Here's what you need to do:

Go to Amelia/Customize/Custom Fields, and create a "Text" custom field, with "Required" check-box enabled and apply it to all services:

Then go to Amelia/Notifications and click on "</>Show Email Placeholders" to see the ID of that custom field:

Then, on the booking page, add a custom script:

<script>
window.afterConfirmBooking = function(appointment, bookable, provider, location) {
  if (appointment.bookings[0].customer.email !== appointment.bookings[0].customFields[14].value) {
    var alertElement = document.getElementsByClassName('el-alert__title')[0];
    alertElement.innerHTML = 'Emails do not match';
    var alertBlock = document.getElementsByClassName('am-payment-error')[0];
    alertBlock.children[0].style.display = 'flex';
    alertBlock.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'start'});
    throw "Abort";
  }
}
</script>

Just make sure to enter the correct Custom field ID in:

customFields[14].value

This will not allow the customer to proceed with the booking if the email in the email field and the email in the custom field do not match:

Custom code needs to be applied to the page where the booking form is. Depending on what you're using (Gutenberg blocks, or some page builder), adding the CSS or JS can be done in a few different ways. 

If you need help with adding custom JS to the page, please take a look at this article.

Hello again.

If the tag is "CODE1", your shortcode should be [ameliaevents tag='CODE1], nothing more.

This script can be added in a simple text block, if you enclose it with <script>...</script> or in a JS block, without <script>...</script> it really varies from builder to builder, from site to site.

For example, I added it in a Classic block (edit as HTML) in Gutenberg:
