I am trying to add Jquery validation to the comments page in WordPress. Everything works except it won't post the fields. May someone help?
FUNCTIONS PAGE
function comment_validation_init() {
if(is_single() && comments_open() ) { ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#commentform').bootstrapValidator({
message: 'This value is not valid',
feedbackIcons: {
valid: 'glyphicon glyphicon-ok',
invalid: 'glyphicon glyphicon-remove',
validating: 'glyphicon glyphicon-refresh'
},
fields: {
author: {
validators: {
notEmpty: {
message: 'Please Enter Your Name'
}
}
},
email: {
validators: {
notEmpty: {
message: 'Please Enter Your Email'
},
emailAddress: {
message: 'This Is Not A Valid Email Address'
}
}
},
comment: {
validators: {
notEmpty: {
message: "Don't Forget To Leave A Comment"
}
}
}
}
});
});
</script>
<?php
}
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'comment_validation_init');Comments page
