 * Hi,
 * In my form, mandatory fields are being passed without completion, only at the
   end of the form is notifying witht he error messages for all mandatory fields.
 * My form is set to use a progress bar and it has around ten steps. Most fields
   are mandatory which means the user shouldn’t be able to go to the next step unless
   is compliting all mandatory fields.
 * Is it something normal as a default behavior or there is something I simply miss
   to adjust proparly?
 * Looking forward to your feedback.

 * Hi [@amery](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amery/)
 * I hope you’re well today!
 * Please go to form’s “Behavior” settings and make sure that the “Enable inline
   validation (as user types) option is enabled.
 * If it’s enabled, a warning about field being required should be displayed right
   away below such field and prevent from moving to next page of the form – until
   the field is filled-in.

 * Thanks again, problem solved 🙂
