(google has yielded little help)

I have two content types that make use of the wonderful Location|Gmap modules. However, on one of the content input forms, the location fields that I've flagged as required are not coming through on the form. The other input form (with fewer exposed location fields) is working just fine (it only has 4 fields, all of which were set to *required, and all of which are displaying/validating correctly).

The form thats not working, has a few more exposed location fields (the entire form has a mix between required and non-required fields), but none of the required fields are being validated (they arent event marked with the corresponding * on the form).

Any suggestions?

unfortunately, all dead ends... i did post an issue in the location queue however...

has anyone else found a patch or workaround for the location requirements issue?

thanks!

I'm embarassed to admit the "solution" to my problem. It seems that when creating a content type, and setting the Locative information, under the Number of Locations (and then Minimum number of Locations), if you set that value to 1, the location fields you've set to required will in fact be required. ;)
