This is probably in this forum somewhere; however, I haven't been able to find it - and my membership is increasing each day significantly so I could use an answer quickly.

I have included only 1 extra field to the standard registration page, for the standard s2member plugin. That is the zip code. I've searched, but haven't found out why or if that is causing the issue, but I figure it is, since most other countries use a postal code.

I don't want to delete it, useful information, but I do want to be able to get the fans from other countries registered! website: www.jaredblakefanclub.com

thanks!

You can review the different possible code formats here https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ ... stal_codes

Then choose a format for the custom field that will allow the codes you want to accept, although it won't do a validation of it as a valid code specifically. WP Admin -> s2member -> General Options -> Custom Registration Fields -> Expected Format

most are numeric - just not 7 digits - some have letters tho - I guess I could make it expect alphanumeric code -
Or is there a way to do like some other sites I've seen - you choose your country / state / zip - so that it would recognize/validate a proper code? - I'm just trying to avoid bogus codes, while still being able to know more about the user...

YES s2member is working GREAT for me

s2Member custom fields won't change the format depending on the country entered. And bogus codes can happen even with the format validation, look: 12345. So you'll have to trust what they input, I guess.

That's wonderful.

I put for it to look for whole integers with no commas.

Can i create a custom field for country - that once you choose it will display input your zipcode or alternatively if a different country display in put your postal code - a new field for each - but only showing up according to the choice - "choose your country" ?

No, nothing dynamic like that, I'm afraid.
