Hello!

The template of this form can be edited in \components\com_resource\views\article\tmpl\form_articleform_default.php or you need any other template that is installed on the site. 

If you need more information please ask.

Regards

Do you mean a common message displayed in the joomla system message style? Or display a simple text hint for every field?

The latter is possible with the field's description parameter:

YOURfield -> Layout -> Description

It will output your text in a SPAN CLASS "small". I remember there was a Resources template, where this description field was displayed in a ToolTip... Sorry, I can´t recall it at the moment.

I see. But isn´t it done already by setting the field as "required" ?!

YOURfield -> General -> Required

thank you

I would suggest to use the Decription field for "input help and hints".

I don´t know exactly how the joomla message system is triggered on ME submission... checkout:

com_resource/views/article/tmpl/form.php

There is the common check for "required"... maybe you have to add your special fields there?! But its a core hack... maybe it is possible to do something similar in the custom article form template...

Hello!

Currently each field doesn`t have such parameter to place text how to fill it up. Usually all fields are have user-friendly interface and there wasn`t required 'right' filling up of them. It can be good Feature request query. Please add it if you need it: http://www.mightyextensions.com/support/feature-request
