Mandatory file validation is not working

  • Hi,

    I have installed the latest version of the plugin and can see the additional filters for files validation in the code, but these do not work if no file is sent (like for any mandatory fields).

    Basically, the [file* …] does not trigger any of the filters we could use programmatically to validate the field, and also the wpcf7_validate field does not account for the object at all (looking in the WPCF7_FormTag, there is no [type] => file*). Am I missing something or using this in the wrong way?

    Thank you for your time and for sharing this awesome tool!

    Hi,

    The staging site is https://desiro.golive.ro/. In meanwhile, I came up with this solution (which is not that elegant).

    add_filter( 'wpcf7_validate', 'custom_file_validation', 30, 3 );

/**
 * Validate custom file.
 *
 * @param  object $result Result object.
 * @param  object $tags   Form tags.
 * @param  array  $args   Form arguments.
 * @return object
 */
function custom_file_validation( $result, $tags, $args = [] ) {
	if ( ! empty( $_FILES['bonfiscal']['error'] ) ) {
		if ( 1 === $_FILES['bonfiscal']['error'] ) {
			$result->invalidate( 'bonfiscal', 'Fi?ierul trebuie s? nu dep??easc? 2MB.' ); // The size is too big.
		} else {
			$result->invalidate( 'bonfiscal', 'Fi?ierul nu a fost ?nc?rcat.' ); // The file was not selected.
		}
	}

	return $result;
}

    I can remove the filter, to revert the code to the default behavior. Let me know how I can assist with troubleshooting.
