Hi Max,
I'm having a number of fields of which some are required and others are not. You can see in the first screenshot that all of them are filled out correctly, the one that is left blank is not required. There are no other checks apart from "required".
However, when I submit the form, it gives the "required" error for all the fields on the page.
Some more context:
* The purpose of the form is that a user can subscribe for an event.
* The field id's and names are created dynamically. I have a database table where the fields are defined, as they are specific for every event.
* Upon submitting, the data that is entered in the form is written to the database.
* If I make none of the fields required (in the database), the form works fine.
I have been looking for errors in my configuration for the whole day, but cannot find anything and I suspect it might be a bug.
Could you please assist me?
Best regards,
Bart
the problem is that dynamic fields names (names with shortcodes) are not supported by the "Validation" code, that's why you get an error
I have fixed this issue and the next update should make it run without an error
is this urgent ? do you need a quick code fix ?
Oh, good to know, thank you Max. It is not that urgent, it is not that much of an issue if the fields are not required, so I can wait for the next release.
Related question: if one of those dynamic fields is a file upload, could it be the reason why the file doesn't get uploaded? I have a test form where it works perfectly, but in this form the file upload field doesn't work, even if none of the fields are set as required it still doesn't upload.
In the debug information the field doesn't even show up under Data, Vars or Information, while it does in my test form.
yes, I think it's the same issue
Hi Max,
I tested this in V8.0.39, but it is still not working.
The fields themselves are not red anymore, but I still cannot submit.
Do you need anything from me for further troubleshooting?
Best regards,
Bart
Hi Bart
You re correct, it's still not working if there is a Loop variable in the field name, other shortcodes should be fine, but loop vars no!
So I have fixed this here and it will be available in v8.0.40
