Agree on some terms before registration

[Hassan Alnatour]

Dear ALL,

How can i make the user agree to some term using a check box before registration ??

[Massimo Di Pierro]

add a boolean field to the registration page and require it to be true

auth.settings.custom_fields['auth_user'].append(Field('agree','boolean',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message='you must agree this')))

[Hassan Alnatour]

it works but its not showing any text next to the check box  , how can i show some text next to the check box ?

How are you inserting the form into your view? If you're using SQLFORM you can supply labels to your fields (in your case the 'agree' field) using something like:

form = SQLFORM(db.auth_user, fields = ['agree'], labels = {'agree':'Do you agree to the Terms and Conditions?'})

Obviously you will need to add all the fields to the fields list you want to include in the form.

Just add a label argument to Massimo's answer:

auth.settings.custom_fields['auth_user'].append(Field('agree','boolean',label='Abandon hope all ye who enter',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message='you must agree this')))

custom_fields or extra_fields???

[Massimo Di Pierro]

sorry extra_fields.

[Hassan Alnatour]

auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user']= [

  Field('Country',default="None"),

  Field('City',default="None"),

  Field('gender',requires=IS_IN_SET(genders,zero=None)),

# Trying to Show a massage new to the checkbox using this Field ..

  Field('agree','boolean',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message='you must agree this'))

  ]

Hello.

Here is a complete solution without the use of a custom form.

auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user']= [
    Field('agree_terms_and_conditions','boolean', label=T('I agree to terms and conditions'),default=False,requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=T('You must agree the term conditions')),comment=XML(A(T('Read the terms and conditions'), _href=(URL('default', 'terms_and_conditions')), _target='blank')))
]
