Hi Jagir,

Are you using <liferay-ui:custom-attribute> tag on your registration form? To perform validation on the UI I think you'd have to replace the tag with your own code. If you're using your own front end code you might need to do a little work to ensure your form data gets processed correctly on the backend.

To perform validation on the back end you could use a Service Wrapper that wraps the addValue method in the ExpandoValueLocalService.

You're probably gonna have to end up using alloy ui form validator. (replace YUI with AUI in your code)

Thanks for that bro. I actually manage to use the ALLOYUI. But the issue i'm having is, with ALLOYUI the error message is on the top.
Whereas the standard error messages will be just beside the input fields. So how do i standardize this? What is the standard in doing this?

You may create your own form validatior rule for this form and use them in hook of create_user jsp.
