Mandatory field in widget template
How can I make a field mandatory in a widget template? On the creation layout I have a widget template mapped to a schema field. In custom properties configuration I have added the property “required” with value “true”. At runtime, it shows the required star “*” in the creation form, but it doesn't validate that the value is not empty. How can I validate it?

Hi,
Just add required=“#{widget.required}” to the JSF tag bound to the #{field} mapping.
Here's an example:
<h:selectOneMenu value="#{field}" id="#{widget.id}"
required="#{widget.required}">
<f:selectItem itemValue="deleted" itemLabel="#{messages['label.no']}" />
<f:selectItem itemValue=" " itemLabel="#{messages['label.yes']}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
<h:message styleClass="errorMessage" for="#{widget.id}"
id="#{widget.id}_message" />

Thanks, it worked. The only thing is that it doesn't show the "Value is required" message. How can I do that?

Using a standard h:message tag. I modified my post to include an example.
