jQuery validate defaults

I'm trying to set some custom defaults for the jQuery validation plugin.

I've tried the following:

$.validate.settings.ignore = ":hidden";

and

$.validate.settings.errorPlacement = function (error, element) {
    if (element.hasClass("removedTitle"))
        error.insertAfter(element.next("img"));
    else
        error.insertAfter(element);
};

However, neither of these seem to make any difference. Is there a way to achieve this?

Try:

$.validator.setDefaults({ 
    ignore: ":hidden",
    errorPlacement: function (error, element) {
        if (element.hasClass("removedTitle"))
            error.insertAfter(element.next("img"));
        else
            error.insertAfter(element);
    }
});
