I want to first thank the creator of this plugin - It is absolutely wonderful and something that I needed greatly but had no idea where to even start! So far it works perfectly except for one problem: When I go to add a new field in form, and click on "yes" under "Required", for some reason it doesn't do anything to the actual form. I "Save Changes", and I then go to test it to see if it will actually require that the field have at least something in it... But when I hit submit, it just goes through like normal and goes to the "response text" and sends the information(or lack of information, in this case) through. Is it supposed to react this way?
Also, on this same subject - Is it possible to require that a person answers a certain way or else they cannot submit correctly? For example: If you have a question setup in a tab that says "Are you a user of google?" and there are two radio buttons "Yes", and "No" - Is it possible to require that their answer be "Yes" or else when they hit submit, the form stops itself from sending and comes up with a message like "You have to be a user of Google in order to send this form"?

You must log in to post replies.Thanks for the bug report! Required fields were working for content forms at one point, but now they are clearly not - I've also confirmed this bug.
I'll look into it now.
No other field validation is currently supported but I could add that if there was enough demand. That would require people using this plugin to write their own validation code, however, so I would likely add it to the field type extension API.
OK, I see the problem. The fix will be in the next release.
Thanks!
Awesome! Thanks for keeping on top of this - I can't speak for everyone here but I definitely appreciate all of your efforts!
