Hi,

On our page www.istwente.org we have a form with a checkbox list.
We would like to make it required, but if we do the user needs to select all.
We would like, off course, that is also possible to select one field instead of all.
But at this moment user receives notification.

Best regards
Gerard

Hi Gerard

Currently that is not possible. The required flag is based on the html5 specification that requires all the checkboxes in the group to be checked - and not only one in the group, which would much more logical. See more here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5884582/required-attribute-on-multiple-checkboxes-with-the-same-name

So to fix this, a custom validation is required.

The forms for editors update due in 9.6 is planned to have a built-in validation feature - and that should be able to handle this scenario.

Hi Nicolai,

Thanks for your reply, for now I think we can fix it with workarounds.
Good to hear that it will be in 9.6.

Hi Nicolai

Has this built-in validation feature been implemented in  v9.6 or later?
