    Default Required Fields Issue

    I have set up my form to use the required fields. I am testing it right now and am finding the following happens.

    If I miss a field that is required it returns a message stating that there are multiple fields missing. For example I fill out my form with realname, lastname, and the flie uploads, skipping the email address.

    I get an error stating that I missed the email address, but I also missed lastname, file1, and file2 when in fact those fields contained data

    Why is this not working properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,

    Is your "required" field between your <form...> and </form> tags?

    If that's not the problem, please post your form's URL so we can have a look.

    Hi,

    You've called the field "LastName" but in the required spec you specified "lastname".

    Notice the case difference?

    For your file attachments, there's currently no way to force them to be required. We've got this additional feature planned for the next version.
