Remove errors

[Martijn Geerts]

This POST here is a Formbuilder post, but it's not specific to Formbuilder as it's usefull for other API related errors.

What I want is remove "Missing required value" and add a custom error in. 

The only thing I can achieve is adding a new error on top of the error array.

$forms->addHookAfter('InputfieldForm::processInput', null, 'hookProcessInput');

function hookProcessInput(HookEvent $event) {
	$form = $event->object;
	
	$firstname = $form->get('firstname');
	
	if($firstname->error('Missing required value')) {
		// here the stuff I don't get
	}
}

Why remove? Why not just hook before and do what you need to do?

Also I think you could leave it not required and add that via js or css.

Also you could try hook before on inputfieldText directly.

BTW your if() adds a error.

Thanks for your reply Soma, gonna investigate the before hook.

And use $event->replace = true; and do your own validation.

I ended up with a simple str_replace on the output of the formbuilder form. It's not ideal, but works for now.

You can also use language support and translate any of ProcessWire's built in messages to your own (including default language).
