Hello,

I’m building a sign-up form with a built-in logic to verify e-mails and passwords. There is some validation message which I want to deactivate or change these but don’t know where to do that. Can’t see states or anything. I took the baisc element “form container” from Weweb.

Could someone help, please?  
Thank you

Would anyone have an idea?

I’m kind of running in circles here and really can’t find where to modify these popup messages 😅

Hi @MrUnfreeze 👋

The popup messages you see are the default browser messages that appear on HTML email input types. It’s not WeWeb-specific.

If you want to disable that, you have a couple of options:

1. Change the input type so that it’s not `email`
2. Add a `novalidate` HTML attribute on the form itself

Hi @Joyce

Unfortunately option 2 does not work on my end.

I will see if there is an alternative

Thanks
