Customize blank errors in Devise

Now I get an error like this:

Email can't be blank

I can change just this part

can't be blank

errors:
    messages:
        blank: cannot be empty

But it after this shows as:

Email cannot be empty

Can I change field name too? make it like

E-mail_something_else cannot be empty?

How can I do it?

My field in the form:

<div class="field">
    <%= t('registration.email') %><br />
    <%= f.email_field :email, autofocus: true, :class => "form-field" %>
</div>

Try this in the devise_en.yml file:

en:
    errors:
        format: "%{message}"

The default format is "%{attribute} %{message}".

I would suggest if you want to change the Validation Message for Devise.

Here is how the en.yml should look like 

en:
  activerecord:
    errors:
      models:
        user:
          attributes:
            email:
              blank: "Please Specify an Email id"
              taken: "Please use a different Email id"
              invalid: "Please Specify a valid Email id"
            password:
              blank: "Please Specify a Password"
              confirmation: "Password does not match"
            password_confirmation:
              blank: "Please Specify a Password Confirmation"
            first_name:
              blank: "Please Specify First Name"
            last_name:
              blank: "Please Specify Last Name"
        pdf:
          attributes:
            name:
              blank: "Please Specify name to PDF"
              taken: "Please use different name for PDF"
            attachment:
              blank: "Please Upload a PDF Attachment"
        data_element:
          attributes:
            name:
              blank: "Please give Element a desired name"
              taken: "Already Created Element with given name"
            color:
              blank: "Please assign a color to Element"
        template:
          attributes:
            name:
              blank: "Please Specify a Name"
              taken: "Please use a different name"

Example => I removed the above devise validation module and then substitue your own in User Model.

Hope this will help you.

You can simply search for the label you need, for example if you search :already_confirmed (that is the label in the locale file), you will find that in the file:

lib/devise/models/confirmable.rb

there is this line:

self.errors.add(:email, :already_confirmed)

If you change email in whatever key you want.

EDIT: I am searching in their github repo, so I am not user it is right, but maybe the message you need is in file:

lib/devise/models/authenticatable.rb

in line 269

record.errors.add(key, value.present? ? error : :blank)
