Hello Guys!

I would like to check on how to make a text field required* (required to fill in) based on if another text field is filled.

For example if I have a text field for Name and Email like this:

Name:
Email:

Once someone keys in something into the Name text field the Email text field becomes compulsory to fill in:

Name: John Doe
*Email:

Any advice on how to do this?

Thanks!

Hello Vincent!

Thank you for posting this question!

Perhaps the best way to do this would be to write a few lines of additional Javascript code. You can add it to Form Options of your form, Javascript tab. In case you are not sure about the code, please submit a support ticket using this form , and we'll help you out.

Please send temporary WordPress administrator access to your website, and also include the link to this forum thread in your message.
Thanks! Have a great day!

Hi Vincent!

I am happy to inform you, that our development team has just sent the code which you will need to use. Please go to Form Options > Javascript tab of your form and add the following code to before_load() function:

jQuery('#wdform_1_element_first1').keyup(function(){
  if(jQuery(this).val() != ""){
    if(jQuery.inArray("2", required_fields1) === -1){
      required_fields1.push("2");
      jQuery("div[type='type_submitter_mail'] .wdform-label").after('<span class="wdform-required">*</span>');
    }
  } else{
      var index = required_fields1.indexOf("2");
      if (index > -1) {
        required_fields1.splice(index, 1); 
        jQuery("div[type='type_submitter_mail']").find('.wdform-required').remove();
      }
  }
});
