Hello,

I am trying to make the "Article Tags (JForm- Tag) required and validated with the current list of tags.

How do I get it to require a selection from the Tag dropdown menu?

Thanks,

The objective is only selection, the user can´t add new tags ?

Codigo Aberto,

We are not allowing the creation of new tags.

Is there a way to require at least one selection from the given list?  

See screenshot:  https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4967834/forum-postings/seblod/Screen%20Shot%202015-04-05%20at%2011.15.32%20PM.png

Thank you,

Codigo,

I have it set to "required" but that is not stopping the form from being submitted.

Codigo,

No value, tag, gets saved.

Here is the backend showing that the tag field is empty:  https://www.dropbox.com/s/d55li9zyadm19g7/Screenshot%202015-04-07%2016.28.03.png?dl=0
