   Seems like there should be some text on the form so users know what the red asterisk means, but I don't see any way to put it there. Am I missing something?

   You can add a section break at the end of the form with the text:

   * - Required fields

   and you could also use CSS to format the text.

   Hi,

   Or you can add some info to asterisk by modify "view-function.php" file, goto around line 24 ~ 27 and you'll find these code :

   //check for required
   if($element->is_required){
   	$span_required = "<span id=\"required_{$element->id}\" class=\"required\">*</span>";
   }

   change to

   //check for required
   if($element->is_required){
   	$span_required = "<span id=\"required_{$element->id}\" class=\"required\">* required</span>";
   }

   it will give "reqiured" text info beside "*" for single text element

   Hi,
   I know that this was posted a few years ago. Is this now the same method for adding the word "required" to required fields next to the asterisk? Has the directory structure or file names changed?
   Cheers,

   The code is still the same but the location most likely has been changed. Simply do a search for the same line of code.
