Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a front end user registration form that asks for an email address. Is there no way to validate the email address by asking for it a 2nd time and comparing the 2 entries, and rejecting if they do not match? This is extremely common and weeds out people mis-typing their own email address. I can not find a field to accomplish this with and am surprised if it is not included in toolset.
"Please enter your email address"
"Please re-enter your email address" <-results in error if not the same as first

Hello and thank you for contacting Toolset support.
I am afraid there is not such a field or feature in Toolset Forms. If you believe this should be part of Toolset, please ask for it here https://toolset.com/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/
However, you can still implement this feature with some custom codes. This is what you will need:
- Use a generic email field for the email-confirmation. And give it a slug.
- Use a custom Javascript code to perform the validation in the frontend.
- Use a custom PHP code to perform the validation on the server after submitting the form. You will need to hook into the cred_form_validate filter.

You can find examples of uses of generic fields and validation with this scoped google search hidden link
I hope this answers your request. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Thank you for answering my question
