OPT_IN error

[Anonymous]

I used the placeholder #REQ_OPT_IN and it kept giving me this error regardless whether I choose ‘Yes’ or ‘No’:

“Please make sure all of the following required fields are filled out: OPT_IN”

Is this a bug or did I do something wrong?

This should fix that:

Although it is not very GDPR-compliant to force opt-in on mailing lists, so I’d advice to just use #_OPT_IN (#REQ_OPT_IN will force you to choose “yes”, “no” is not a valid choice then …).

I thought #REQ_OPT_IN is to force users to make a selection, not specifically for ‘Yes’.

Added the code and it works. And after adding the code, it works on both selections. I checked the database and it shows that when choosing ‘No’, it reflects as ‘No’ for mass mailing. So, it’s ok to use #REQ_OPT_IN now?

#REQ_OPT_IN will force a selection, but since there’s only 2 choices to pick from, there’s no real need to use REQ 🙂
