Here I am with an answer for you.<br /> The gform_pre_render only fires when the form is displayed and not when the form is submitted. That is the reason fields are being marked as required (and appear to be required) when the form is displayed, but when the form is submitted, those fields are no longer marked as required. The solution is simple. In addition to using the gform_pre_render you will also need to use the gform_pre_validation. This is a relatively new hook available on GF 1.6.12 +, so make sure you are running the latest version. To make it more clear, following is the code that is needed to make this work:</p> <pre><code>add_filter(&quot;gform_pre_render&quot;, &quot;set_required&quot;); add_filter(&quot;gform_pre_validation&quot;, &quot;set_required&quot;); function set_required($form){ foreach($form[&quot;fields&quot;] as &amp;$field) { $field[&quot;isRequired&quot;] = false; } return $form; }</code></pre> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/changed-isrequired-but-still-validating#post-152505 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 17:58:48 +0000 Rob Harrell 152505@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've reached out to the dev team to see if they have any ideas for you here. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/changed-isrequired-but-still-validating#post-152429 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 14:13:27 +0000 mikc03 152429@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>seriously, no response??? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/changed-isrequired-but-still-validating#post-151295 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 02:27:31 +0000 mikc03 151295@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>Any update on this?

This code seems to make the field not required and also does not let us force a validation error. How did you hide the zip code in the first place? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/changed-isrequired-but-still-validating#post-150173 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 11:01:03 +0000 mikc03 150173@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Chris,</p> <p>The site is not public. I'm developing on my machine.</p> <p>Is there a sample code for removing validation on a field?</p> <p>Do you see anything wrong with my code?
