Hi Tony,

The documentation for the Umbraco Forms, can be found here: https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Products/UmbracoForms/

Hope this can help you.

Yeah was gone but will be back in v4.0.3, you can already upgrade to a nightly http://nightly.umbraco.org/UmbracoForms/nightlies/

Ah fantastic, will save countless hours rebuilding :)

so  in Forms it will be the event Umbraco.Forms.Web.Controllers.UmbracoFormsController.FormValidate

Great, I was looking in that controller for a validation event previously, glad I was at least in the right area :)

How do I get the validation error messages to appear? Im adding them to the Model error collection as I did with contour but nothing is showing? 

private void FormRenderController_FormValidate(object sender, FormValidationEventArgs e)
{
            if (e.Form.Name == FormTitles.ChoosePassword || e.Form.Name == FormTitles.ChangePassword)
            {
                var s = sender as Controller;
                if (s != null)
               {
                    Field passwordField = e.Form.AllFields.SingleOrDefault(f => f.Caption == Captions.NewPassword);
                    Field confirmPasswordField = e.Form.AllFields.SingleOrDefault(f => f.Caption == Captions.ConfirmNewPassword);

                    if (passwordField != null && confirmPasswordField != null)
                    {
                        string password = e.Context.Request[passwordField.Id.ToString()];
                        string confirmPassword = e.Context.Request[confirmPasswordField.Id.ToString()];
                        if (password != confirmPassword)
                        {
s.ModelState.AddModelError(confirmPasswordField.Id.ToString(), ErrorMessages.PasswordMismatch);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
}

That should do the trick, will try to reproduce

Yeah just tested and it works like expected, are you sure the code is getting hit, so that your form captions are the ones you are checking for?

Just tested the same setup and it works so I think it will have to do with the check on captions

Its hitting the code and adding the error to the collection but there is no validation showing, I couldnt see it in the source but I can take another look

Sorry for the slow response, Im back on this and cannot see the errors appear in the source code which is generated after the form is submitted, its hitting the validation and adding the errors to the model errors correctly? The standard mandatory validation on thr form itself works fine, just not the custom ones?

The standard forms validation is client side so works fine, but when the page is submitted it hits teh custom validation and adds the erro rmessages but does not reload the page which I assume is the reason it doesnt show teh error in the updated model?

Hi Guys,

Anyone can help me?

I am trying to do a custom validation for Umbraco forms but I do not have FormValidate:

Umbraco.Forms.Web.Controllers.UmbracoFormsController.FormValidate

FormValidate does not exist in UmbracoFormsController.

Any help please?

Kind Regards

 'Umbraco.Forms.Web.Controllers.UmbracoFormsController' does not contain a definition for 'FormValidate'

Hi Tony or someone,

Have you got a solution for this regarding to show the validation error please, because like yours, I cannot see an errors after the custom validation?

Thank you :)

is working on a reply...
