To disable "required" validation to those element, you need to edit "post-functions.php" file. Go around line 465 ~ 466 you will see this code :</p> <pre><code>$rules[$element_name_4][&#39;required&#39;] = true; $rules[$element_name_6][&#39;required&#39;] = true;</code></pre> <p>add a comment to those code to be like this </p> <pre><code>//$rules[$element_name_4][&#39;required&#39;] = true; //$rules[$element_name_6][&#39;required&#39;] = true;</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/stripping-address-elements-out#post-5298 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 12:28:01 +0000 nielsenworld 5298@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hello!</p> <p>I did the above and removed Country/region in the address field, but it's still required!<br /> The customer don't see the fields now, but is not allowed to send the form because of missing required fields. </p> <p>How can that be fixed? </p> <p>BTW, thank you VERY much for a great form software, we've been searching for a long time!</p> <p>/Allan </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/stripping-address-elements-out#post-2854 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 21:58:36 +0000 reprocessor 2854@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Thanks Redityo and Yuniar,</p> <p>This solved a couple of issues.</p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>Phil </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/stripping-address-elements-out#post-2823 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 13:24:16 +0000 yuniar 2823@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Regarding phone format, we're planning to add more format for more countries.<br /> At this moment, only two format is available, sorry! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/stripping-address-elements-out#post-2821 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 12:49:38 +0000 redityo 2821@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Maybe you can consider to not display country and state/provice/region section on the address field. You have to Edit your CSS and add this following code :</p> <p>I assume your address field id number is 1</p> <pre><code>#li_1_div_4 { display:none !important; } #li_1_div_6 { display:none !important; }</code></pre> <p>To change the text below the city field ,you can edit "includes/language.php" file and search around line 21 for the following line :</p> <pre><code>$lang[&#39;address_city&#39;] = &#39;City&#39;; &lt;-- change this one</code></pre> <p>and for formating phone.. sorry, I'm afraid it's not possible to do so at this moment. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/stripping-address-elements-out#post-2817 Mon, 01 Sep 2008 20:37:00 +0000 reprocessor 2817@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi Yuinar,</p> <p>I was wondering how I would strip out the following fields from the address element; The fields I do not require are 'State/Province/Region' and 'Country' How would I also make the text below the 'city' field read 'town or city'? Which file and line would I find these on (I'm a bit lost!)</p> <p>Would the code allow the 'city and 'zip code' fields to sit side-by-side or would the css control that? </p> <p>Also - how can I change the size of the phone number? Your default format is (###) ###-####, I would need it to be (#####) ###### (it's for UK numbers). I'd use the international one but you would still get people putting a space between their region code and actual phone number (Which causes an error) and i'd like the form to be idiot proof if you know what I mean ;) </p> <p>Your help is always appreciated.</p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Phil </p>
