Registration Form Required Fields Error Message


Recommended Posts

In the Create An Account page, assuming user did not enter a required field, it will generate an error.  However, the error message refers to the field name in the authentication.tpl, and that is not quite user-intuitive.  Example: "passwd is required".

 

Some errors are generated through validation of AuthController.php, but I can't find where the "xxx is required" messages are generated.

 

Any idea where to change so that it will display "Password is required"? Can I just change the 'name' attribute of the field in authentication.tpl?

Go to the Localization > Translations tab, select "Field name translations" in the dropdown, choose "English (English)" as the language and then click the Modify button to change the field names. For example, search for all "passwd" and enter the translation as "Password". Click the "Save" button when you've entered appopriate names for all fields.

 

If you need to change the "is required" part, select "Error message translations" in the dropdown instead.
