Hi John, I am working on form builder here you can see the image
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tefh2auwqy97g10/form_builder.png?dl=0 It is working in cakephp 2.x fine. here are answers of your questions. *Have you studied the CakePHP book?* yes I read the cakephp 3.x cook book *What have you tried?* In cakephp 2.x I have written validations like following but I have no idea how to try multiple index validation in cakephp 3.x Cakephp 2.x Form fields are $this->Form->input('FormElement.text.1.title', ['type'=>'text', 'label'=>false, 'class'=>'form-control']); $this->Form->input('FormElement.text.2.title', ['type'=>'text', 'label'=>false, 'class'=>'form-control']); Cakephp 2.x Model Validations are public $validate = array( 'text'=> array( 'mustNotEmpty'=>array( 'rule' => 'checkForText', 'message'=> '', 'last'=>true) ), 'textarea'=> array( 'mustNotEmpty'=>array( 'rule' => 'checkForTextarea', 'message'=> '', 'last'=>true) ) ); function checkForText() { if(!empty($this->data['FormElement']['text'])) { foreach($this->data['FormElement']['text'] as $key=>$val) { if(empty($val['title'])) { $this->validationErrors['text'][$key]['title'] = "Please enter title"; } } } return true; } function checkForTextarea() { if(!empty($this->data['FormElement']['textarea'])) { foreach($this->data['FormElement']['textarea'] as $key=>$val) { if(empty($val['title'])) { $this->validationErrors['textarea'][$key]['title'] = "Please enter title"; } } } return true; } so the validation work like a charm on multi index input fields 'FormElement.text.1.title' etc. The form fields are dynamically added. I am not getting any clue to convert this code in cakephp 3.x *What does not work?* In cakephp 3.x I have tried so far. Cakephp 3.x Form fields are $this->Form->input('FormElements.text.1.title', ['type'=>'text', 'label'=>false, 'class'=>'form-control']); $this->Form->input('FormElements.text.2.title', ['type'=>'text', 'label'=>false, 'class'=>'form-control']); Cakephp 3.x Model Validations are public function validationForFormElements($validator) { $validator ->add('text', [ 'mustNotEmpty'=>[ 'rule'=>'checkForText', 'provider'=>'table', 'message'=>'' ] ]) ->add('textarea', [ 'mustNotEmpty'=>[ 'rule'=>'checkForTextarea', 'provider'=>'table', 'message'=>'' ] ]); return $validator; } function checkForText($value, $context) { if(!empty($context['data']['text'])) { foreach($context['data']['text'] as $key=>$val) { if(empty($val['title'])) { *I have no idea how add validation error on particular index* } } } return true; } function checkForTextarea($value, $context) { if(!empty($context['data']['textarea'])) { foreach($context['data']['textarea'] as $key=>$val) { if(empty($val['title'])) { *I have no idea how add validation error on particular index* } } } return true; } *Do you get any error messages?* I did not get any error messages Please let me know if anything is not clear.
