Is there a way of automatically displaying an asterisk next to the label text on the front end for fields that are set to be required?

Dear Julie,

I assume we are talking about the CRED form, it should be possible within some CSS codes, see similar thread here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23141854/adding-asterisk-to-required-fields-in-bootstrap-3

For your reference.

Hi Luo

Yes, I do mean CRED forms.

Thank for the link. I've worked through this but it actually involves changing

<div class="form group">

to

<div class="form group required">

and

<label>

to

<label class="control-label">

in each instance of every form where a field is required. It would actually be easier to simply type an asterisk after the label text! Either way it means manually checking the form against the settings for the custom fields to make sure every required field has an asterisk.

Whilst the desired end result is achievable albeit it in a somewhat clumsy and potentially inaccurate way, what I was really wanting to know is whether there is a way of tapping into the custom field validation setting of 'required' to automatically generate an asterisk in all the right places.

Is this possible?

You are right, you will need to it actually involves changing HTML codes, there isn't such a built-in feature within CRED form, if you agree, we can take it as a feature request, our developers will evaluate.

Yes please!
