Hey, jcrist, that’s the exactly same issue that I’m having right now! And it’s good that it worked for you with just the media details. Unfortunately I need to build a repeater with the media upload and a couple more fields. But at least it’s good to know that I’m not the only one facing this behavior!
Hi, Steve!
Sorry for the delay. I tried that, deactivated all plugins and keeped only Piklist. The issue still happens.
As I said, if you want, I could give you access to the particular install where this is happening!
Thanks!
Hi, Steve! Thanks for the answer. Actually, I forgot to remote it from the snippet above. The issue if the add-mores and the sorting from files added into it still happens without the validation rules.
If you need to, I can give you temporary admin access to the WP install that is happening this, so you guys can investigate better.
Thanks!
Hi, @Kevin! That was quick! Thanks for the answer!
I agree with you that server-side validation is a lot more reliable. I’m just thinking about the usability of the field system generated by the framework.
You know, I’m used to set the Advanced Custom Fields plugin to build meta boxes. And when you set a required field, for example, and you go to a post and try to save it without fill the required field, the field is highlighted without a page reload. It would be awesome if we could reproduce this kind of behavior for Piklist, not just for required fields, but for validation too. As you pointed out, it’s possible to customize the fields and I’m comfortable with that, but a client-side validation built in the framework would be a good usability improvement for the system (its unobtrusive, as the system still would work without javascript using the server-side validation) and everyone using it (less work for devs and more awesomeness for end users). What do you guys think about this feature suggestion?
Thanks for the reply! I’ll look at some client-side validation libraries and if I have any question, I’ll be back here!
