Conditional Logic issue with validation

    Hello!

    I need help with my registration form. I have 2 context issues with conditional logic and validation.

    First, I have a radio button to know if my member wants to receive our newsletter. Options are Yes/No. If member ckecks Yes than I show a list of checkboxes so they can add their preferences. Ckeckboxes are By email/By mail. They have to check at leat 1 checkbox. The problem is that when they select No at first, the form won’t submit because of the mandatory checkboxes that are hidden. The form should ignore hidden fields when validating the form.

    Also I noticed that when I submit the form and there are errors triggered, neither my radio buttons no my checkboxes are ckecked anymore…

    Second, I have a radio button asking if they want to provide their clinic information. Again Yes/No. If answer is Yes I show a bunch of other text fields that are required. If I check No the form will still validate the hidden fields.

    How can I fix this? Is this a bug or am a not setting my form correctly?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi there!

    At this time, we can’t have “required” fields inside a “conditional logic” as both are opposite to each other. e.g. The field can be optional in theory if the user didn’t specify a rule that makes it show based on condition. So making it require will stop the form from loading.

    Is it the same issue you’re facing or different one? It’s a current limitation in the conditional logic I am afraid.

    Thanks!

    Hi!

    Ok I will try to work around that the conditional logic. Same problem but 2 differents contexts.

    What about the radio buttons and checkboxes that were checked before the submit but are empty after submitting form with errors. Is there a solution for that?

    Thanks
