Maybe it’s a bit of an exaggeration to call this a bug, but I guess strictly speaking it is: If you set a confirmation type field as required at sign-up, there is no asterisk next to it like with the other field types when they are required.
AI-generated summary
The discussion revolves around a minor issue with custom user fields in Discourse. tophee points out that when a confirmation type field is set as required at sign-up, it doesn’t display an asterisk like other required field types. pfaffman suggests this might be a duplicate topic, but tophee clarifies that the issue is specifically with the confirmation field not showing the required asterisk.
Tushita08 shares their experience of creating an account without filling in the required “Name” field, which sparks a conversation about the “Full name required” setting. pfaffman explains that this setting is not enabled by default and suggests turning it on to resolve the issue. Tushita08 asks how to do this, and pfaffman provides instructions to find the setting in the admin panel.
Possible duplication of this topic.
To be more specific about the issue described here: the confirmation field (tick-box) is correctly required at sign-up, it just doesn’t show that it is with the asterisk.
I created a new account and I could create one without creating/putting a Name in the “Name” column. So, if it is required, should I work on this and put an asterisk with fields which our required?
Could you please help!
@pfaffman @tophee
By default the full name is not required. See setting full name required.
Would turning this setting on answer your question?
