is there a way for me to override the message from Html.ValidationMessageFor. So when it is activated, it will display the new message ?

I have tried to add this to my model:

[Required(ErrorMessage = "validation error message goes here")]
public decimal Average { get; set; }

but that wont work.

and if i add the message to the html it self, it will display it always on page load:

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(x => x.Average, "validation error message goes here", new { @class = "text-danger" })

I need to change the error message provided for my language (danish) instead of just the model name which is in english.

  • Not clear what you asking, or why your saying [Required(ErrorMessage = "...")] does not work. But you can use resource files to localize your error messages - refer this blog for an example Commented Apr 13, 2017 at 2:23
  • i found the solution, i just removed "validation error message goes here" from html.validationmessagefor, and typed null instead. Then it didn't override the required validation message in my model. Commented Apr 18, 2017 at 6:02
