Rename field names in Kendo Validator generated error message

[eleven]

Hi, I can't seen to find a fix for this:

I'm using .NET Core Telerik UI's Wizard feature along with its kendoValidator and the latter seems to be generating error messages, one example being the email address field - it'll generate an error message if the email doesn't follow the format allowed per the attributes in the view model. However, it's using the original field names despite my using the DISPLAY attribute in the VM. How can I go about changing the field name used in the client side when kendoValidator kicks in?

Example: ALT_EMAIL is not valid email. I'd like for it to say, This email address is not an valid email, instead.

 

FYI, I'm using .NET's tag helpers, not Telerik's, to generate the field names, inputs, etc.

Hi,

At this stage, when the EmailAddress DataAnnotation and a custom error message is provided, the message is not obtained through the Kendo UI Validator in comparison to the Required Annotation:

[Required(ErrorMessage = "This email address is required.")]
[EmailAddress( ErrorMessage = "This email address is not an valid email, instead")]
public string ALT_EMAIL { get; set; }

 

This behavior is already logged in the kendo-ui-core repo. You could follow the item's progress here:

In the meantime, check out the possible workarounds described in the following forum thread:

Thank you for your understanding regarding the matter.
