Assets - mark field with color

Hello ,
I have searched the forum for a solution to distinguished the assets fields which I want to be mandatory ( te default  ones - not custom ) with no vail.
My installation ver 0,85.4
So I want to do is to color the desired fields only .I tried to edit the computer.class.php and the styles file .
But with no luck.
Is it possible at all?

Regards
Kajtenator

GLPI 0.85.4 is over 6 years old so I would suggest considering upgrading to a newer and supported version.

Newer versions have a red asterisk next to any mandatory/required fields and there is also a feature to add custom CSS without having to modify the styles that come with GLPI.

Re: Assets - mark field with color

Good morning,

Before writing this I tried to open a new post but it says "The following errors need to be corrected before message can be posted: You are not allowed to post links"

I just installed GLPI 10.0.11 and I would like to set some fields as required(mandatory) when we register an asset in computers.

I have tried(install) the Form Validation plugin, but from what I have seen it only allows mandatory fields to be created during the user session
and we cannotapply simultaneously to several users.

This is the message from the plugin: Edit mode (valid for current session only, will be reset at next login)

Not finding a way to create mandatory fields, I tried to modify the glpi_computers table of the DB (glpi) by executing the following commands:

ALTER TABLE glpi_computers MODIFY name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'mandatory';

However, you could still add teams with the "name" field empty. Is there an option to create mandatory fields in computer assets?

Besides pulling out an old post - which should be don't as circumstances changes.
You are messing with database integrity. I would not recommend and this can cause issues with upgrades in the future - IMHO you are on your own.
