Turn off required fields while developing

    I'm developing a very (very, very) long form with multiple pages and lots of required fields. I was wondering if there is a quick and simple way to disable all required fields while I am developing the form to help with testing the conditional logic etc. Once I am happy with that I could then turn the required fields back on. Having to fill in every required field while testing the page logic is a pain.

    I dont think it's possible but I'd be happy to be wrong :)

  2. There is no built in way to disable all required fields for testing purposes.

    Thanks Carl, didn't think there was a way to do this. Could it be added to a future feature list? Or am I alone in thinking this would be useful?

  4. It may be something we could add in the future, depends on how complex it actually is to implement. Sometimes simple things can be extremely complex to actually implement.

  6. Found this old thread while searching for a solution to the same problem. Just wanted to chime in so you know others would like this feature too! :) Hopefully something can be added in the future.

  7. There is this post by developer David Smith on skipping pages on multi-page forms which may be beneficial to you, depending on the type of form you're developing:
