 * Hi Support, thank you for your great work on the plugin. I have a question relating
   to email fields that are “not required” and “required” as part of a group using
   the select dropdown.
 * I have tried both email and text tags and cannot seem to get the field to be “
   not required”, even though it does not have *.
 * Below is the example I am using. The select is not required, the next email/text
   tag is not required, however, the last email is required.
 * The form shows the error “**One or more fields have an error. Please check and
   try again.**” and cannot be submitted when the field is left blank.
 * [select category id:category class:category placeholder “Select” “A” “B” “C” “
   D” “E” “F”]
 * [group group-individual-email] 
   <label> Email [text text-email minlength:0 maxlength:
   50 placeholder "Email address will NOT be public."] </label> [/group]
 * [group email-group-560] 
   <label> Email [email* email id:email class:email minlength:
   5 maxlength:50 placeholder “Email address will NOT be public.”] </label>  [/group]
 * **Conditional fields**
    1. Show – group-individual-email – if – Category = “A”
    2. Show – email-group-560 – if – Category does not = “A”
 * Your help would be greatly apprecaited.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Frequired-fields-and-groups%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
