Hi there,

I'm building a bi-lingual site, and I'm having trouble with the validation-messages.

I used to do this in my model:

[Required(ErrorMessage = "This field is required")]
public string Name { get; set; }

But now, I want to display an errormessage depending on the current culture.

Is there a nice solution to this? I've tried replacing the errormessage with a variable or getting it directly from the umbraco dictionary, but that doesn't work. It needs to be a constant expression.

Is there a way to bypass this? Can I make an errormessage which is a dictionary-alias? So I can display an error like:

Umbraco.Field("#" + Errormessage)

?

edit: So, I've noticed a can use:

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(f => f.Name, umbracoHelper.Field("#CustomErrorMessage").ToString())

To display a message per field.

But is there still a way to make the display-name and errormessage in the model variable? It would be a lot less work :) Also, this method doesn't make a difference between a Required validation-error or a Emailaddress validation error :(
