Certified Developer 9	r.zareianfard-gmail - 1/2/2014 9:58:40 AM Marking required fields with a symbol (Like * ) I wanna mark required fields with an start without changing label ( as they may not be required in alternate forms) do you know any solution?


Kentico Legend	Brenden Kehren - 1/2/2014 11:20:11 AM RE:Marking required fields with a symbol (Like * ) Set the Field caption value to "* Name". In your alternative form you can simply have "Name". But you need to ensure the main property is set to not required. You'd have to add validation at the main property level and modify it on the alternative form to not require it.

Kentico Legend	Brenden Kehren - 1/2/2014 11:43:53 AM RE:Marking required fields with a symbol (Like * ) CSS. Set the "content" before on the fields. Could also use jQuery although I'm unsure of a good way to implement that.

I don't know why Kentico's team didn't enable this property by default.
