Gravity Forms Customization

I am using Gravity Forms for WordPress:

So just like email fields come with a second field asking for confirmation, I was wondering how could I create a custom field that needs a confirmation as well.

Example:

I want my client to enter their social security number in a field but then be asked to confirm their social security number by adding it again.

Thank you for your help.

```// register field IDs 1 and 2 on form ID 8 register_confirmation_fields(8, array(1, 2));

Basically just make two identical fields and then use the above code in your functions.php file, making sure to substitute the id values.

Hey Derek,

Thanks for the reply -

So I tried your solution but I think I may have done something wrong.

Two fields I have:

Social Security (ID: 17) Social Security Confirm (!D: 32)

Form ID: 1

So according to your code I did this

// register field IDs 17 and 32 on form ID 1 register_confirmation_fields(1, array(17, 32));

Thanks for your time and help
