I have a VF page that uses Apex Classes to ReRender a PageBlock, based on what's chosen in a multi-pick list by a guest user.

Previously, the user would choose a concern, and receive a technology recommendation based on their choice. This has worked in the past, and I'm not sure what has changed.

Here is my VF page Code:

<apex:page docType="html-5.0" standardController="Opportunity" extensions="IntakeExtension,ShouldShowSHSection,ShouldShowSHwECSection,ShouldShowPERSSection,ShouldShowMedSection,ShouldShowRingSection" standardStyleSheets="false" showHeader="false" sidebar="false">
    
  <apex:stylesheet value="{!$Resource.styleForIntake}"/>
  <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
  <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
   
  
  
<body>
<!-- multistep form -->
<apex:form Id="msform" styleClass="form">
  
    <p>  
        Personal Care Concerns:
     </p>
    <div class="selectiondiv">
        <apex:pageblock >
            <apex:pageblockSection >
                <apex:inputField styleClass="fieldset" value="{!Opportunity.Personal_Care_Concerns__c}">
                <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" reRender="technologyRecommendation"/>
                </apex:inputField>
            </apex:pageblockSection>
        </apex:pageblock>
    </div>
    <br></br> <br></br>

        Safety Concerns:

</apex:form>

//jQuery time

</body>
</apex:page>

Here is an example of one of my Apex classes that has previoulsy worked - I have not made changes to this since the last time it was working:

public with sharing class ShouldShowMedSection{
    public ShouldShowMedSection(ApexPages.StandardController paramController) {
       standardController = paramController;}
    public ApexPages.StandardController standardController {get; set;}
    public Boolean getShouldShowMedSection() {
   Opportunity record = (Opportunity)standardController.getRecord(); 
      return record.Personal_Care_Concerns__c != null && record.Personal_Care_Concerns__c.contains('Medication');
        }
        }

The issue was resolved the I removed all instances of required="true" from other fields within my VF page - I'm not sure why that caused an error with rendering, but it did!

  • Congrats! You might get around this problem by putting your picklists into ActionRegion tags. That will let you make changes to them without the required fields firing the page validation errors. Commented Apr 20, 2021 at 3:17

    Perfect! This is exactly how I was able to solve it - Thank you! Commented Apr 20, 2021 at 19:04
