TOPIC: Omit Validation Message from HTML if No Error

Omit Validation Message from HTML if No Error 14 years 2 months ago #12929

When an RSform initially renders, the html contains the validation message, but it is hidden with css (.formNoError {display:none;} ).

The problem is that Google is reading the hidden text and using it when indexing the page. I have a contact form on every page of my site, and in Google's Webmaster Tools, the number 12 keyword for my site is "invalid."

Does anyone know what would be involved in completely omitting the text from the html until the form is submitted and an error actually exists?

Thanks,
Julie

Hello,

You can try setting a theme for your form and so the fields will be highlighted when the validation fails and so you can completely remove the validation messages. Also you can use the "Error Message" from the Edit Form tab of your form in order to show a general error message for the form.
