Problem:
Make custom post fields required ONLY for the frontend User CRED Form when submitting or editing post from frontend.
Solution:
1. Uncheck the required field option from the back-end (if its selected).
2. Please add this code in your theme’s or child theme’s functions.php file. Please note the comments in this code and replace your field-names (slugs), form ID, etc where needed, otherwise code will not work:
add_filter('cred_form_validate','form_field_validation', 2, 10);
function form_field_validation( $field_data, $form_data ) {
// field data are field values and errors
list($fields,$errors)=$field_data;
// validate if specific CRED form ID
if ( $form_data['id'] == 3650 ) {
// set error message per field
if ( $fields['wpcf-text-field']['value'] == '' ) // Field slug with wpcf "wpcf-text-field"
$errors['text-field'] = 'Text Field must not be empty'; // Field slug without wpcf "text-field"
if ( $fields['wpcf-text-field2']['value'] == '' )
$errors['text-field2'] = 'Text Field 2 must not be empty';
}
return array( $fields, $errors );
}
Problem:
Using HTML codes in the custom checkboxes field value
Example of such checkbox:
Title: Library
Value to store: Library *
(i choose 'display the value of this field from the database') (Ffxt1HFfWKrCkbNb being the shortcode of the specific popup)
when editing the profile backend, checking some checkboxes, those with that href code are being saved as checked and appear on frontend, but after saving/loading the profile in backend, those checkboxes turn to be 'unchecked'. So, the next time i'll save that profile, those previously checked boxes will become unchecked and that content won't be seen in frontend any longer.
In other words: it doesn't stay checked after saving. The boxes without that code are fine.
Solution:
It is not recommended to use HTML codes in the "Value to store" of custom checkboxes field, I suggest you store only the simple value in the field "Value to store", enable option "Show one of these two values", move those HTML link codes into the field "Selected", see screenshot: checkboxes-link.JPG https://d7j863fr5jhrr.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/560188-checkboxes_link.JPG Relevant Documentation:
