Summary08885: Validate 'mandatory' equation
Description

Actually, we can set 'mandatory' to an equation question type, but seems nothing happen. But i think it's can be a great tool to do 'any validation needed' with an easy way.

Additional Information

Searching for an EM method for this : https://www.limesurvey.org/en/forum/installation-a-update-issues/96403-making-comment-box-mandatory-for-list-with-comment-question-type#106520
I think we can use a equation mandatory with {LIST_comment} to question text : but nothing happen.

I'm agree to take it if OK for 2.06 (or more ...)

Alternative : validation equation attribute for group but more for 2.1

Add the 05983 related :
Question.text : {if(is_empty(LIST_comment),"You must complete the comment",""}) , in DB: !is_empty(LIST_comment)

What about this issue?
I have a survey where I want to block submission if the value of an equation question is empty (or 0 or false). I'm using the equation type because I want to store in DB the result of the equation expression (computed with values from other questions).
The solution seems to be setting mandatory the equation question, but this do nothing (the survey is not blocked).

Thanks.

It's a feature request, not a bug … else : you can use Question validation in another question too :)

I hope to find time to work on it for 3.0

In my opinion this is an issue, not a feature request: currently the "mandatory" setting does nothing for equation questions.
