Can you reproduce that on our live demo (www.impresspages.org/demo)?

For chooses where you can only have single option selected you should use radio box.

What I suspect here is that you created custom for(not widget) and added 2 options where no has no value. Required validator will not allow an option with no value pass.

Hello

I've had the same problem, using the stock standard form element.

jankus commented 6 years ago

Yes. This is a known issue and comes from a library that is used as default for from end validation. It doesn't recognize that there could be more than more control for the same input. If first value is selected, everything will be fine.

If a form is custom build (not via widget), you can (and should) do backend validation and throw errors where and when needed. In that case do not mark input as "Required" for frontend validation to skip it.
