Minimum length field validation not working

    I´ve been using the plugin for over a year and never had issues with it. However, now the minimum length validation is not working properly. This is the code that I´m using:

    <label> <b>Review</b>
    Tell me what you think about the reader! Did you like it? Did it help you learn new vocabulary and improve your listening skills? Was it a good fit for your current level of Russian? Would you recommend it to other Russian learners?
    [textarea* your-message minlength:100 maxlength:140]
    [count your-message]</label>

    When the text is less than 100 symbols, the error notice pops up but it doesn´t explain what the error is, so it´s confusing for those who are filling the form. For some reason, it shows the message for the validation error instead of the message for the field with input that is shorter than the minimum allowed length. It doesn´t show the red frame around the box with error either. Is there an easy fix? Thanks.

    What other plugins and theme do you use on the site?

    I use Contact Form 7 on many websites. This is the theme https://the7.io/ for all my sites and each one has different plugins.

    I don´t think it´s related to either my theme or the plugins because this functionality stopped working on all my sites and I haven´t updated them for a very long time. If a couple of people didnd´t contact me saying that they couldn´t submit the form, I wouldn´t even know there was an issue. That´s when I checked all my forms on all websites and realized that the minimum length field validation was not working anymore.
