Plugins

A collection of useful plugins that do additional jobs

FormValidation comes with various built-in plugins listed in the alphabetical order, split into two groups as following:

Core plugins

These plugins are often used and included in the dist/js/FormValidation(.min).js file. You don't need to include any external plugin file to use them.

Alias

Allow to use multiple instances of the same validator

Aria

Add ARIA attributes based on the field validity

Declarative

Provide the ability of declaring validator options via HTML attributes

DefaultSubmit

Submit the form if all fields are valid after validating

Excluded

Ignore validations on particular field

FieldStatus

Track the field status, and allow to perform an action when a field status is changed

Icon

Display various icons based on the field validity

Message

Display error message

Sequence

Stop performing remaining validators if there is a validator that the field does not pass

SubmitButton

Automatically validate the form when pressing its Submit button

Tooltip

Show error message in a tooltip

Trigger

Indicate the events which the validation will be executed

External plugins

You don't need all external plugins most of the times. So, you have to include them right after the dist/js/FormValidation(.min).js file in your page.

<script src="/vendors/formvalidation/dist/js/FormValidation.min.js"></script>

<!-- 
You need to insert external plugin (Bootstrap in this case) 
after FormValidation.min.js
-->
<script src="/vendors/formvalidation/dist/js/plugins/Bootstrap.min.js"></script>
