[SOLVED] Some fields 'required' for some plans but not all - issue with Profile Edit was created by mike5151
I have a use case where the community has parents and children.
The child plans 'require' the completion of fields detailing the name of the child's parents.
In the Parents' plans we do not 'require' to know this information (obviously!).
This is dealt with at registration by 'hiding' the fields according to the plan type using 'workflows > hide fields at registration' .
However, if a parent or administrator wishes to edit any other fields in the parent's profile - for a change of address for example, then these (parent name) fields become mandatory.
How can I make fields mandatory at registration for certaim plans but not mandatory in profile edit?
Kind regards
Mike

There's no way to toggle the required state of a field. The only way to have what you're wanting is to edit the user from backend and ensure "Fields Validation in User Management" is set to "No" within CB > Configuration > User Profile.

Thank you.
The ability to toggle 'required' according to plan would be a useful feature for the future!
Kind regards

I agree, but it's not an easy feature. We have jQuery side validation for required state. PHP side validation for required state. Toggling both so they're in sync. Toggling the required icon as needed (a non-required field toggled to required doesn't even have the icon in the DOM). CB Conditional had it and it was a disaster (broke too much). It maybe considered again at some point in the future, but for now I don't see it happening.

Never thought it would be easy!
The workaround you have suggested will be fine.
Thanks Kyle.
