This was caused by a blank array element, which I have resolved...

Odd...the change I made cleared it up for me.

What type of profile field is it that you have filled in some text and it still says you need to fill it in?

[MarkFL]

I updated the product so that profile fields that have a default value defined will not be selectable as required, as this would be nonsensical.

So, import this update and then save your settings, even if you make no changes to the settings themselves.

[Stratis]

Mark my first problem with the language is ok.
But...

My opinion, I see in settings of modification all fields, even if they are Hidden to members, fields that not supposed to show up. if I check the box of that hidden fields to members, they will never pass the notice.

May be only to show those fields that they meet setting of the fields, fields that members can put the value.
OR
other philosophy, modification will have only one field to put by hand the id of the field that admins want. and the other one you have for Excluded Usergroups.

Any way as it is it does what I want, I must be careful to see the settings of my fields before checking box.

[MarkFL]

Good points, Stratis...I have updated such that now you are only given the choice of fields that do not have a default value, are not hidden and are user-editable.

As before, make sure you save your settings after you update.

I have officially published the product here:

Force User To Define Profile Fields

If you have installed any of the versions found in this thread, uninstall them, since the productid is different.

[Stratis]

Tested, with new install.

Much more better. And as I say above it is good and makes what we want.
We are not goin to play every time with settings

I will wright what I see, to just let you know:
if you want some time to get forward if it is feasible.

1) Modification must be on top of settings we have in the first place in the fields.
What I mean? If we have in field "Biography" (Field Required) = Yes xxxxx
and in settings of mod we have unchecked box, we have problem in this situation and so on. (even if member fills all other prompt required fields by mod) if biography not filled up he will get the official note "A required field called Biography is missing or has an invalid value." when he will press to fill that to, non of all others fields are saved that was fill before.

2) With the change you made Hidden fields now is not show up, this is ok, but
In the option "Field Required" even if it is to "NO" modifications calls it and I see it with the checkbox. That means that when field is Private than only does not show up.

3) "Grace Posts" This is a good point, But this does not give many choices as it is for all. Some admins may want to get the "names" of members as first priority or what else they have. What about it? as I see in your other mods you have like this..

field id, how many posts
1|10
2|5
3|5
4|2
...and so on

In the product settings, I have the profile fields sorted by field number. As far as how fields initially defined as "required" when you define them in the "User Profile Field Manager," the behavior of the page when editing one's settings is not altered by this product.

Yes, the product allows you to force users to fill out profile fields that have not been designated as "required" in the field settings.

I put in the "Grace Posts" the same way I did for the avatar forcing product. I don't think it is necessary to give different usergroups a different number of grace posts. The added complexity would far outweigh the utility of such a feature.
