I'm working in a project built over the SmartAdmin bootstrap webapp that comes with some kind of form validation in a feature called SmartForm. I don't know what it uses behind the scenes to validate the forms(it acts like jquery validator), but it is boring me with undesired behaviour.
I want to know how do I disable it.
The documentation doesn't helps. Its uselss to link it here because of the on-line version is not complete, you get it when you buy and download the full application.
As an example of what is happening, consider the following form element(that is generated by ASP.Net MVC 4 with its Data Annotations):
<input data-val="true" data-val-length="The field must have maximun of 100 characters." data-val-length-max="100" id="Company" name="Company" type="text" value="" class="valid">
As you can see it haves only a max-length validation, but its being treated as required by this validation tool. It marks it as required(red borders and background) and prevents the form to be submitted.
I just want to disable it to keep handling the validation with jQuery Validator by itself.
UPDATE
Here is the - almost - full form dom, as requested in the comments:
