I'm building a component that, among other fields, contains "title" and "text" fields. The business logic is:
- If both fields are empty, that is OK
- If both fields are populated, that is OK
- If one field is populated, but the other isn't it is NOT OK
The request is that this show up as field validation errors. I know I can write this complex logic using item validators, but item validators won't show errors in experience editor for the page because the item is a component, hence the request for field validators.
Is it possible to build a field validator that checks the value of another field on the item?
update:
Some pretty good suggestions were listed in the comments below. At the end of the day, we ended up making this into a controller rendering and handling validation logic in there. We additionally put an item validator on the component itself to prevent it from going through workflow.
