Hiding the appended value on Error Message

    Hi there, 

    I am changing an error message for a multiple answer question. Instead of "the minimum number of entries is" I just want it to say "please select all options before continuing" and I want this to be a requirement for form submission. The problem is that after changing this text it still appends the number of minimum options after my error text. Ie it displays "please select all options before continuing 9". 


    Is there anyway to fix this (remove the 9 from the message)?

    Hi @sivadinc,

    I presume that you are referring to this form: 92305946459164. I have checked the Multiple Choice Options and saw that the entry limit you set is 9, but there are only 9 options.

    I think what you can do is to check all the options as default and make the field as Read Only. In that way, the user no longer needs to select since all the options are required.

    Here's a quick demo on how it's done:

    Please try that and let us know how it goes.

    Thanks for your quick reply. We have decided on a different approach with
    the check all widget.
    Have a great day!
