I'm having a strange issue with the validation plugin. I have a field for the users telephone number, but the only rule that is set is that it is a required field. However, if you type any character apart from a number it gives a "Please enter a valid number" error which it shouldn't (as I never told it to validate on numbers). The message for the required rule is "Please enter the contact telephone number of the payee.", if I remove the "number" in the message then it works fine.
I am using the metadata plugin to get the validation rules. How can I stop the validation plugin from automatically adding validation rules?
