Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You can use the Toolset Form hook: cred_form_validate to validate your form.
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_form_validate

Please check the Usage example and adjust your code accordingly.

Opps thank you Mensh but though I am not a programmer could you just give me an example what will be my code and where I have to put.

You can add the code to the "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/

Here is the sample example:
- https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/require-at-least-one-checkbox-of-a-checkboxes-field-to-be-checked-in-a-toolset-form/

If you still do not know how to do it, please let me know your form field slugs for phone, email or whatsapp.

Sorry it is bit complicated.
Below are the fields:

Phone: phone-number
Whatsapp:wpcf-whatsapp-link
Email: e-mail

And do let me know where I have to paste that code

Please try to add the following code to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset:
- https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/

add_filter('cred_form_validate','func_validate_my_form',10,2);
function func_validate_my_form($error_fields, $form_data) {
 
   //field data are field values and errors
    list($fields,$errors)=$error_fields;
 
    if ($form_data['id']==99999) {
        
        if (empty($fields['wpcf-phone-number']['value']) and empty($fields['wpcf-whatsapp-link']['value']) and empty($fields['wpcf-e-mail']['value']) ) {
         
            $errors['wpcf-phone-number']='Please enter value for at least Phone,Email, Whatsapp';
        }
    }
    //return result
    return array($fields,$errors);
}

Where:
- Replace 99999 with your original form ID
- please replace field slug if required and error message.

If it does not work, please share problem URL where you added your form as well as access details.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
