    Umbraco Form - Client Dependency issue

    Hi,

    I was wondering if you can help.

    Our client has a Multi Step Umbraco form on their site. They recently made an update to the form via the CMS and suddenly all the validation started throwing validation errors even though the fields had been entered.

    This was puzzling to us and we were not sure what the issue could be. As a last straw we updated the Client Dependency value in the config file and this fixed the issue.

    My questions are – is this a known issue? We are nervous that if the client updates their form again this error will happen again. Obviously, they can’t update the Client Dependency file.

    They are using Forms 8.5.4 on Umbraco 8.8.1.

    And can you explain exactly what the Client Dependency does? It seems like we have to increase the value often in version 8 for things to start working again.

    Many thanks

    Jon

    it manages the caching mecahnism for css and js bundles, so if you make changes to css or js files you have to update version number to force umbraco to refresh them.
