# Make [acceptance] required?

 *  Resolved [DEREK GREEN](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dgreen901/)

 * [7 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-acceptance-required/)
 * How do we make the acceptance check box required?
 * The code all looks OK, added “acceptance_as_validation: on” in additional settings,
   but it allows form submission without the check box
 * There is an old (closed) thread marked resolved but the user – [@lucy_jo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucy_jo/)–
   has self-resolved without posting the solution.
 * help appreciated, thanks
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmake-acceptance-required%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
