We will handle it via your priority support ticket.</p> <p>In the future please do not post the same issue on both the support forum and priority support. The same people do not handle both and by posting on both you can cause a duplication of effort by different people handling support.</p> <p>If you had submitted the priority support ticket because you had not received a response on the forum yet, please keep our support hours in mind when posting on the support forum. Your forum posts were created over the weekend which is after hours. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/checkbox-post-category-field-validating-incorrectly#post-59505 Sat, 19 May 2012 09:52:52 +0000 Welltree 59505@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello!</p> <p>Please review the screencast of the issue I am running into, here:<br /> <a href="http://www.screencast.com/t/U9waJtsHg" rel="nofollow">http://www.screencast.com/t/U9waJtsHg</a></p> <p>I have created a form using POST fields, with a fieldset of CATEGORY checkboxes.</p> <p>The form works just fine, EXCEPT when I set the Category Checkbox field to "Required" then it fires a Validation error, even when a checkbox is checked.</p> <p>One thing to note is that the Category checkbox field is not using all the available categories, it is only using SELECTED categories.</p> <p>Please advise, Thanks!<br /> Terran<br /> ----</p> <p>Environment:</p> <p>Windows 7 Home Premium - 64bit<br /> Tested on Chrome v.19 and FF v.12<br /> Wordpress 3.3 Network (multi-site) install<br /> Buddypress 1.5<br /> Gravity Forms </p> <p>Active plugins - see screenshots:</p> <p><a href="http://screencast.com/t/mZ5whI26hP" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/mZ5whI26hP</a><br /> <a href="http://screencast.com/t/VaUtjmTI8" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/VaUtjmTI8</a><br /> <a href="http://screencast.com/t/p1nuvC7QV" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/p1nuvC7QV</a> </p>
