Merge domain TLD Dropdown into one input field

[USA_Webmaster]

May you please help point me in the right direction? I'm using "Modern" Cart plus Six theme design.

 

• How do I combine input value="{$sld}" and input value="{$tld|substr:1}" into one field?

 

The two php snippets I'm looking at in configureproductdomain.tpl file are:

 

input type="text" id="owndomainsld" value="{$sld}" .....

 

AND

 

<input type="text" id="owndomaintld" value="{$tld|substr:1}" .....

 

I'm browsing over the Registrar Module Dev Docs but don't understand everything...I wish to combine "I will use my existing domain and update my nameservers" input fields into one. Customer may type "domain" and the "TLD" all at once without tabbing.

 

 

Thanks for taking a look at the thread.

I don't think you do want to combine them into one field - the cart will be expecting $sld and $tld to be passed separately and will likely not function if it doesn't get them...

 

the only two options I can see would be to either have one field and then split the entered values into $sld and $tld - perhaps in jquery or a hook... or bypass the $sld/$tld validation, enabling you to pass $sld (domain.com) and then split it into $sld and $tld at the next stage (domainoptions.tpl).

 

i'm struggling to recall a thread of something attempting this before, but I can't recall anyone trying.

Thanks for the response brothaman, I will use what you've shared to create a more detailed post in the future should I choose to hire a freelancer. If you somehow recall a thread, I'll be here holding my breath.
