Dear Sir/Madam,
I have two custom fields "social media" and "social media account", "social media" is a selection field if customer select any one of the selections, the "social media account" is showed for entry. "social media account" is set as the required field when "social media" field is selected.
There is no error if I submit the post via CRED form but when I edit the custom post from dashboard, the "social media account" is must be filled, how can I fix this issue?
Best regards,
Kelvin
Hi Kelvin
I think I misunderstood your problem, because my colleague pointed out that the behaviour is the same when editing posts in the backend as it is in front-end forms, and I just tested it now myself and that's correct: if the second field is conditionally displayed according to the value of the first field, when it is hidden the required setting is not applied.
I think your problem when editing the post in the backend is that the second field is not hidden.
Go to Toolset > Custom Fields and edit the second field and add a condition so that it is only displayed when needed based upon the value of the social media field.
In the screenshot you can see I added a condition to a field based upon the value of an "add required" field.
