FrontEnd Required fields not working [SOLVED] was created by igcorreia

The required fields in front end are not being validate.

So the TITLE is the only minimum required.
Please could you fix this.

Regular test, create a new custom Flexi Field, make it required and try to create a new item in the form end without filling this item.

The required feature is implemented for most field types, but not for all.

I guess you are using v1.5.6 ? (you have mentioned before)

Which field type is this not working? Do you have javascript errors (e.g. conflict with jquery loading multiple times)?
Have you enable the parameter in the field configuration?

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

This is the version: FLEXIcontent version 1.5.6 beta2 (r926)
Field: Text Area - Set Required YES
No errors what so ever in FF with maximum Errors.
It validates in the back end.

Ok, we are talking about v1.5.6 , didnot test in previous version, i can see that in frontend that we are not loading the custom FLEXIcontent form field validator.

This should fix it but i need to test it a little more:
In file components/com_flexicontent/views/items/tmpl/form.php just after line:

$this->document->addScript( JURI::base().'administrator/components/com_flexicontent/assets/js/itemscreen.js' );

add:

Code:

$this->document->addScript( JURI::base().'administrator/components/com_flexicontent/assets/js/admin.js' );
$this->document->addScript( JURI::base().'administrator/components/com_flexicontent/assets/js/validate.js' );
