All that :required does is tell Hobofields to add this to the model: validates_presence_of :some_field_name If you skip the :required in the field declaration and use this instead (after the fields do block): validates_presence_of :some_field_name, :on => :update You'll get the behavior you're looking for. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
