To do so you should edit "post-function.php", search around line 289 you will find these code :</p> <pre><code>$rules[$element_name][&#39;email&#39;] = true;</code></pre> <p>replace with this</p> <pre><code>if ($form_id != &#39;2&#39;) { $rules[$element_name][&#39;email&#39;] = true; }</code></pre> <p>in that example email validation will be skipped when form id = 2, otherwise the form will have email validation. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/remove-email-validation-error-on-form#post-4264 Tue, 13 Jan 2009 17:56:26 +0000 machformrocks 4264@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Is it possible to remove the email validation on the form when the person enters their email as "junk" </p> <p>Is there a way to stop the following validation error messages...</p> <p>--- Big Red Box ---<br /> There was a problem with your submission.<br /> Errors have been highlighted below.</p> <p>This field is not in the correct email format. </p>
