 * Hello,
    first of all, i would thank you for this magnificent plugin! i found 
   a critical problem, when adding a new post with a field type “File” and required;
   if i let the file empty the form is submitted and generate an error “fichier 
   est vide” (empty file) but the problem that the post has been added to the list
   without a file. i suggest to do the test in client side with javascript to force
   user to add a file.
