Make Telephone Required in Contact Us and Ask a Question

[CookieMonster]

I am using 1.5.8a. I would like to make the telephone required on both ask a question and contact us. For contact us, I went to /includes/templates/responsive_classic/templates/tpl_contact_us_default.php and changed the telephone code to

<label class="inputLabel" for="telephone"><?php echo ENTRY_TELEPHONE_NUMBER; ?></label>
<?php echo zen_draw_input_field('telephone', ($telephone), ' size="40" id="telephone" autocomplete="off" placeholder="' . ENTRY_REQUIRED_SYMBOL . '" required', 'telephone'); ?>
<br class="clearBoth" />

However, it is not putting in the required symbol or making it required. Is there something else or different I need to do?

Thanks.

Whoops, I think that is an old file as I was mistakenly looking at the prior ZenCart folder for the older version. Where can I find that file I need to edit in Version 1.5.8a?

I think I found the correct file. In case anyone else needs to find it, it is: /includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_contact_us_default.php

However, the minimum value I put in for telephone didn't work when I put in less numbers than the minimum, but at least the field is now required.

You want to take the file

includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_contact_us_default.php

and copy it to

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_contact_us_default.php

So that you know that you have made changes to this file.
