Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Hello,
I have installed Search API and create two filter criteria in my view : one for taxonomy (town) and one for title.
When I check "Required" in my filter criteria, I have an error in my view:

An error (without text) appear in my view, but I can save it even so:

Here is the html code:

Do I something wrong or is it a bug?
Thx.

drunken monkeyThis looks to me like it has nothing to do with the Search API and is just normal Views (or, Drupal Form API) behavior. You add a required input field with no default value – so there is a validation error when first viewing the view. After adding filters, it vanishes. (The error message is empty because the form field seems to have no title associated – that seems a bug in and of itself, but also not in this module.)
For making exposed filters required, maybe try setting the exposed form style to "Input required".

floown CreditAttribution: floown commentedHello,
I have done like you suggest to chose "Input required" but the validation is the same: I can enter no entry. Then I have try to check de "Required" in each of filter criteria: the alert is back.
I have no solution. I have use a "display: none;" for alert until I found a admissible solution :\
If you have one another, thanks!

floown CreditAttribution: floown commentedI have installed Search API on a Drupal 7 installation and I have no problem to check "Required"…

drunken monkeyBe that as it may, it's still a Views problem. To test, just go to
admin/structure/views/view/contentand check "Required" for the "Title (exposed)" filter there. Now, when you go toadmin/content, you will see the same problem.Please either move this issue to the
views.modulecomponent of Drupal Core, or create a new issue there. (Or, in all likelihood, find the issue that already exists for this.)
