Forminator Email validation For Dropdown values

Hi again @akhilser

We have snippets for one submission per email address. Please add a must-use plugin to your site’s wp-content/mu-plugins folder like this https://wpmudev.com/docs/using-wordpress/installing-wordpress-plugins/#installing-mu-plugins, then add the following code to the plugin’s php file:

<?php
/**
 * Plugin Name: [Forminator] - Limit the submition by email.
 * Description: [Forminator] - Limit the submition by email.
 * Author: Thobk @ WPMUDEV
 * Author URI: https://premium.wpmudev.org
 * License: GPLv2 or later
 */
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
	exit;
} elseif ( defined( 'WP_CLI' ) && WP_CLI ) {
	return;
}
​
add_filter( 'forminator_custom_form_submit_errors', function( $submit_errors, $form_id, $field_data_array ){
	$your_list_forms = [79397];
	if( empty( $submit_errors ) && in_array( $form_id, $your_list_forms ) ){
		$your_unique_field_name = 'email-1';
		$your_error_msg = 'The email is already submitted';
		foreach( $field_data_array as $field ){
			if( $field['name'] === $your_unique_field_name ){
				global $wpdb;
				$table_meta = $wpdb->prefix . 'frmt_form_entry_meta';
				$table_entry = $wpdb->prefix . 'frmt_form_entry';
				if( $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT COUNT(1) FROM $table_meta as m LEFT JOIN $table_entry as e ON m.entry_id = e.entry_id WHERE m.meta_key = 'email-1' AND m.meta_value=%s AND e.form_id = %d LIMIT 1;", $field['value'], $form_id ) ) ){
					$submit_errors[][$your_unique_field_name] = $your_error_msg;
				}
				break;
			}
		}
	}
	return $submit_errors;
}, 10, 3);

We recommend to test this on the dev/staging version first before putting it on the live site.

Kind Regards,
Kris
