When I turned the Ajax setting off, the validation started working.</p> <p>Is this a known issue?</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Timo </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-enable-validation-messages#post-47133 Mon, 23 Jan 2012 09:23:22 +0000 Richard Vav 47133@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Timo,</p> <p>I have had a look and it seems that when you hit submit the error classes aren't being applied to the fields that have failed validation, not sure why just yet, is the validation working when you preview the form in admin. </p> <p>It is probably a plugin conflict that is causing the problem which you will need to test for by following the instructions in this post <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Testing_for_a_Theme/Plugin_Conflict" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Testing_for_a_Theme/Plugin_Conflict</a></p> <p>Just one point though it looks like you are using a caching plugin, my first step would be to go into the plugins settings and disable it for the page with the enquiry form on, sometimes they can cause problems with contact forms.</p> <p>Update: It looks like your form isn't submitting at all which would point to a plugin/theme conflict disrupting the gravity form scripts. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-enable-validation-messages#post-47131 Mon, 23 Jan 2012 08:49:47 +0000 TimoK 47131@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi!</p> <p>How can I enable validation messages in my form?</p> <p>In properties, I have selected the Required check box and in Advanced tab, I have entered my validation message.</p> <p>However, no message is displayed if I try to submit the form which has empty required field.</p> <p>Any ideas for this?</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Timo </p>
