Question

In Symfony 1.4 Im using a form based on model. But there are some widgets/fields I must need to validate. I couldnt find removeWidget() or something like that, how to remove some fields not to be checked/validated?

EDIT: baseForm

$this->setWidgets(array(
  'f1'          => new sfWidgetFormInputHidden(),
  'f2'  => new sfWidgetFormInputText(),
  'f3'    => sfWidgetFormInputText()
));

$this->setValidators(array(
  'f1'          => new sfValidatorChoice(array('choices' => array($this->getObject()->get('ID')), 'empty_value' => $this->getObject()->get('ID'), 'required' => false)),
  'f2'  => new sfValidatorInteger(),
  'f3'    => new sfValidatorInteger()
));
$this->widgetSchema->setNameFormat('task[%s]');
$this->errorSchema = new sfValidatorErrorSchema($this->validatorSchema);
$this->setupInheritance();
parent::setup();

and now somehow I must edit the configure() method so that validator wont check ‘f1’ field.

Answer 1

You could simply unset the widget from the form

class XYZForm extends BaseXYZForm
{
    public function configure()
    {
       //....
       unset($this['unwanted_widget']);
    }
}
