Change WF-Downloads required field (description)

I believe that a module can pass a fieldname to 'class/xoopsform/form.php' in order to make that field a 'required' field when the form is validated.

WF-Downloads makes the 'Description' field required, where I would prefer it not to be.

Can anyone tell me where to change that?. I seem to have searched through everything, but cannot spot the relevent function.

Any pointers would be appreciated

OK. Found it

wfdownloads/class/download.php

Lines 386 and 521 (approx)

Change 'true' to 'false' at the end of:

$sform->addElement(new XoopsFormDhtmlTextArea(_MD_WFD_DESCRIPTION, 'description', $this->getVar('description', 'e'), 15, 60, "smartHiddenDescription"), true);


I really wanted to make the title a required field, but WF-Downloads has an option to use the uploaded filename as the title, which makes it a bit complicated.

If I figure out a way, I'll post it here.

If you want to remove the description field requirement for categories too, edit:

wfdownloads/class/category.php

line 116

Change 'true' to 'false' at the end of:

$sform -> addElement(new XoopsFormDhtmlTextArea(_AM_WFD_FCATEGORY_DESCRIPTION, 'description', $this->getVar('description', 'e'), 15, 60), true);
