Changing to show field error messages by hand would most likely entail significantly more work.

show field error messages by hand (if you want the messages near the fields),

how can i do this? do you mean, by using field validators like on this
link? http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/using-field-validators.htmls

How are you doing validation now?

In any case, I meant showing field error messages by hand by checking the field errors map for specific field names, in the HTML/JSP, instead of having it done by the theme.

Seriously--consider modifying the simple theme (creating your own theme based on the simple theme) and adding the error message bits of one of the themes that includes them. Otherwise you'll be adding either a chunk of JSP to check for field errors, using a custom tag to encapsulate it somehow, or something fairly similar.

How is it that the project got so far along that changing the theme is too much work and nobody noticed that validation messages weren't being displayed?
