I found that the datamapper_lang file lacked a 'required' entry, I added one like this on line 16:

Code:

$lang['required']    = 'The %s field is required.';

Thanks for posting, I should have updated this thread as I managed to fix the issue by doing exactly the same thing you mentioned by copying the form_validation language strings into the datamapper_lang file

I've found that just using the form_value() function still works while using Datamapper validation. Are you getting different results?

The site I'm working on is using CI 1.7 and I realize you're using 2, so perhaps that has something to do w/ it, but thought I throw that out there and see if it got you anywhere.

To confirm it works in Reactor as well, the problem existed between keyboard and chair
