Could it not be possible to put the error message in the form settings?</p> <p>Anyway, in the meantime, could you please explain what I have to do with the code found here <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation_message" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation_message</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/changing-validation-massage#post-55628 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 08:07:24 +0000 Rob Harrell 55628@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This should help you out:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation_message" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation_message</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/changing-validation-massage#post-55613 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 06:29:05 +0000 intigo 55613@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,<br /> 1.
