Dear Modx co-users, I need your help.
I have a simple contact form, mutuated almost entirely from the templates and examples found online.
It works and it validates the fields.
Unfortunately, the error_message placeholder is driving me crazy:
[[!+fi.error.error_message]]
I copied them from the examples, but they do not show any message.
When there is a validation error, the message displays correctly close to the wrong field BUT I expected to have the same message also displayed in the generic placeholder.
Here below you find the FormIt call and the form itself.
[[!FormIt?
&hooks=`email`
&emailTpl=`sentEmailTpl`
&emailTo=`[email protected]`
&validate=`contact_name:required:minLength=^2^,
contact_email:email:required,
contact_message:required`
&clearFieldsOnSuccess=`1`
&submitVar=`submit`
]]
[[!+fi.error.error_message]]
<form id="contactForm" class="vis-break brdr cmxform topspc" action="[[~[[*id]]]]" method="post">
<img class="lft-img" src="[[*hrm20homedir]]images/email_s.png" alt="email" />
<strong>Inviateci un email:</strong>
