Validating a specific field before submitting

    I would like to validate a field to be a eight-digit number but am not sure how to implement this.

    I have found the follow code which should probably be implemented in my functions.php

    add_action( 'wpmem_pre_register_data', 'my_reg_hook' );
function my_reg_hook( $fields )
{
}

    Two questions,

    Is this the correct hook to use for this? And how would I call one of my fields?

    The rest I’ll be able to figure out.

    Yes.

    $fields is an array of the fields where the array keys are their meta keys (the WP-Members field option name).

    If you have a field with option name my_number, then it will be in the array as $fields[‘my_number’]
