Required Sliders Not Blocking Form Submission

Bug Reports
1

Hi,

I’m using Pro Forms with several slider fields marked as required. However, even when I leave sliders empty, the form still submits without blocking.

I’ve checked the generated HTML and it shows required=“true” on the linked to the slider, but this doesn’t prevent submission.

I also tried adding custom JavaScript validation to detect empty required fields, and while it correctly shows an alert, the form still submits regardless.

Can you confirm if this is a known issue, or if there is any extra configuration needed to make the native validation work properly?

Thanks!

We have just refactored and unified the entire validation logic. This was one of the major weaknesses of Proforms, which we have now addressed.

The work is largely complete and will be deployed with the next update. :blush: If you urgently need this for your site, feel free to create a ticket in the support area and include your access credentials.
