How to make post fields required?

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

The issue here is that the user wanted to make their post fields required in Toolset Forms.

Solution:

We actually have a hook for this and you can set the field to be required by using out validation hook to ensure that its not being submitted empty.

I can see how to specify custom fields as being required in the admin, they are then required in the auot-generated CRED form. But how do you mark generic WP Post fields as required in the CRED form?

For example, I am using the Toolset Classifieds demo site, and can't figure out how to make the Ad forms require a decription and main image...how do I do this?

Thanks
