Hi,
I am using drupal-6.17 and the COPPA module coppa-6.x-2.0-beta1 and relatively new to PHP and Drupal. I have seen other emails about bugs/unexpected behavior which resolved through the latest version. Perhaps I am not understanding how to use it. I have added the profile_dob (date type) and parent_email (single-line textfield) through the Profiles admin interface. The parent_email is hidden onload so would be present if JS was disabled. I think this is how the module should be integrated.
What I see in the user registration is a normal registration along with the date selects. I have setup the pparent_email to show onchange of the selects to a birthdate that would make the user under 13. I enter a date that triggers the parent_email, give it a value and submit the form. Now the user exists in the system and the profile_dob and parent_email are stored. The next form presented is the same registration form, now with a new parent_email field above the birthdate selects along with my hidden parent_email. This new registration form does not show the age selects with the correct values, but the new parent_email has the correct value, my custom one has no value. (Prior to this I had just tried with the profile_dob (no custom parent_email), and the same thing happens without showing my custom parent_email and of course no value in the new parent_email field.)
I re-enter the form info using the same username, email, parent_email and birthdate. I get errors returned saying the username is taken and the email has already been used.
Am I setting it up incorrectly? How is it supposed to work?
thanks, -Rob
