   Hi, is it possible to costumize an error message to a single field?
   I need a special Error Message to my {element_3}.
   Thanks

   "costumize"? I assume you mean "customize", or "customise" for those outside the U.S.

   From a quick search I found some of the error messages in the language.php file in the "includes" folder - there may be more and perhaps someone else can point you in the right direction.

   The general errors (or some of them) are listed from about line 60 onwards. The validation messages are from about line 72

   However these will be global changes.

   I'm not sure what type of error you want to add - can you explain in more detail what you need?

   Hi AMurray
   Thanks for your reply.

   Yes, customise... (sorry for my poor english).
   I was way from computers for a few days, now i'm back.

   I did the translation of language.php file to portuguese.

   In one of my forms i have a radio button that is mandatory and i need a specific error message for this field if it is not selected.

   Is it possible?

   Hi,

   To get different error message of your radio field, you can edit "includes/post-functions.php" file. Go to around line 212 ~ 214 and you'll find these code :

   if($validation_result !== true){
   	$error_elements[$element_id] = $validation_result;
   }

   try to put this code, exactly bellow that line

   if ($form_id == 7 && $element_id == 3) {
   	if (!empty($error_elements[$element_id]))
   	{
   		$error_elements[$element_id] = "This error is different";
   	}
   }

   In there, I assume your element id = 3 on form id = 7
