    Hi there,

    I use your plugin (great work!!!) to implement an extra checkbox in the comment forms. This works good! Only it leads to a loss of commets. Why? Because users get frustrated:

    Bechause the the checkbox-field is not marked “required” to trigger browser check and many users oversee the smal ‘*’ they try to send their comment. Only then they get the error and have to go back and — all their comment text is gone (might depend on browser, but is an issue here)!

    I did not find out how to put the ‘required’ to the field. So please add it, will you? This would be great for the usability of the comment forms.

    Thank you so much!

    Best regards

    Try typing out (required) after the sentence, so it appears before the *

    @nici-; This is how WordPress handles their comments form, unfortunately. If you’d like to change this behaviour you will need to fix it via your theme. You might change the styling of the checkbox to make it more clear it is required, such as @rusher7 mentioned (thanks!).
