If a field with InputfieldSimpleMDE as the required option and also the html5 required option, the page can't be saved and in the console there is an exception. Also if the field as data.

I'm pretty sure we're just using the plain field, so this would be an issue of that:

sparksuite/simplemde-markdown-editor#484

one person suggested this as a workaround, which you could add in your custom js for the admin:

$('#original-text-area').attr('required', false); $('.CodeMirror textarea').attr('required', true);
