How can I make all fields required within a checkbox list?

    Hello,

    I have a checklist in my form and I need every line required. Right now it says that the field is required, but if you just check one out of the whole checklist, the form can be submitted. Can you help me with this? Also I cannot fix the last line getting cut off.

    I need this feature of every line item of a check list to be required in another form too.

    Picture below.

    @simplysmiles - Is this the form you're working on?

    You're using the CHECKLIST WIDGET and this widget doesn't have that option you're looking for. For comparison, all widgets behave this way - When you set a widget as a required field, you're basically just setting that field as required (as a whole) and not the components within it.

    Instead of using a widget, why not just use a regular MULTIPLE CHOICE field? This should allow you to enable the ENTRY LIMITS option where you can set the required MINIMUM / MAXIMUM number of selections.

    e.g. if you have 10 options within the MULTIPLE CHOICE field and want all checkboxes to be required, then set the MINIMUM and MAXIMUM ENTRY LIMITS to 10.
