Laravel 4 custom validation - [method] does not exist

I am trying to implement and use a couple of my own custom validation methods in a class called WBValidation that extends Illuminate\Validation\Validator

I have this method validateCombinedRequired:

 class WBValidation extends Illuminate\Validation\Validator{


     public function validateCombinedRequired($attribute,$value,$parameters){
            return (    $this->validateRequired($attribute,$value)  )
            and    (    $this->validateRequired($parameters[0],$this->data[$parameters[0]])     );
        }
}

I have placed this class in the libraries folder. For the framework to automatically pick up this class, it might be getting picked up because I can see it in autoload_classmap.php ( I might be wrong ).

When I try to use it in my model, I am getting this error which says BadMethodCallException","message":"Method [validateCombinedRequired] does not exist:

class UserModel extends Eloquent{
    protected $table='user';
    public static function VerifyUserAdd($data){


        $rules = array('password'=>'required|combined_required:repassword');

        // stuff

        return Validator::make($data,$rules,$errormessages);
    }
}

Is there anything else I should be doing? Please help me!

You need to register your custom Validator extension:

Validator::resolver(function($translator, $data, $rules, $messages)
{
    return new WBValidation($translator, $data, $rules, $messages);
});

I suggest reading the documentation as it covers several was of adding your own custom validation rules.
