I worked today with umbraco form and there is problem with multiple choice type when you select it as mandatory field. So when you choose multiple choice as type and tick mandatory you will not be able to submit form even if you selected options. Could you tell me whether it is umbraco bug or I did something wrong in my code?
umbraco version: 7.2.8, do you think updating umbraco may fix it? will it be simple to update umbraco? or it can break something? website was not created by me so i am a bit afraid to do big changes.
Version of form we use is "4.4.0". So that may be a problem because there is version 6.0 now. Should I try upgrade version of form? Here I come with other question, is it worth to pay for form licence or it is possible to build own forms?
Please make sure to take a backup of your website and database before doing the upgrade so you can roll back if anything is not going as expected.
The license for Umbraco Forms has a price of 129€ this price is a one time fee, so then you can estimate if it´s worth to create your own contact forms or using Umbraco Forms.
Multiple choice - mandatory field forms
Hi,
I worked today with umbraco form and there is problem with multiple choice type when you select it as mandatory field. So when you choose multiple choice as type and tick mandatory you will not be able to submit form even if you selected options. Could you tell me whether it is umbraco bug or I did something wrong in my code?

Hi Lukasz,
Sorry to hear that you have issues with Umbraco Forms. What version of Umbraco Forms are you using right now?

Hi Lukasz,
Depending on which version of Umbraco your are currently using, then I think that you should try to upgrade.
If you are using a version lower than Umbraco 7.6 then you should upgrade to Umbraco Forms 4.4.2 using these files. https://umbraconightlies.blob.core.windows.net/umbraco-forms-release/UmbracoForms.Files.4.4.2.zip
If you are using Umbraco 7.6.0 or higher then you should use these files. https://umbraconightlies.blob.core.windows.net/umbraco-forms-release/UmbracoForms.Files.6.0.1.zip
You should follow this guide when you are doing the upgrade. https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Add-ons/UmbracoForms/Installation/ManualUpgrade
Please make sure to take a backup of your website and database before doing the upgrade so you can roll back if anything is not going as expected.

Please let me know if you have more questions
