Required fields inside conditional groups – CF7

    Hello,

    I’m actually using and enjoying “Conditional Fields” plugin on my wordpress website. I was wondering if it is possible to put a *required field inside a conditional group.

    e.g. in one of my event forms I ask users to specify the number of participants and then I ask them (with appearing conditional fields based on the number they picked) to insert the names.. unfortunately I am not able to set these name fields as * required. Can you help me?

    Thanks!

    Yes sure. Let’s take this example:

    [group g][text* t][/group]

    If the group g is visible during submission it will trigger a validation error for t if t is empty.

    It doesn’t seem to work on my form. The submission works even if I leave text* fields empty, without any validation error.

    Here’s my code: 

    <label> Numero partecipanti * 
     [select* posti include_blank "1" "2"] </label>

[group group-partecipanti1]
Nome e Cognome partecipante 1
[text* partecipanti1 id:width100]
[/group]

[group group-partecipanti2]
Nome e Cognome partecipante 1
[text* partecipanti1 id:width100]

Nome e Cognome partecipante 2
[text* partecipanti2 id:width100]
[/group]

    Do you notice any mistake?

    Yes, you are using duplicate field names. 2 fields are named partecipanti1

    Please read this: All field names should be unique

    I solved. Now it works fine.
    The key was: All field names should be unique

    Thank you!
