jQuery validation error for validator.format

Question

Is someone able to solve this error? is with jquery validation 1.13.1 and jquery 1.11.1 :

  uncaught exception: $.format has been deprecated. Please use $.validator.format instead.

Whenever I disable any validation form I have ,it still show the error, so it's basically something on the validation file code isn't it? not in my form validation file where I use it like this:

    $("#free_validation").add("#validation-form").validate({
        ignore:'',
        rules: {
            title:{
                required: true,
                minlength: 2,
                alphanumericwithpunc: true
            }
        },
        messages: {
            title: {
                required: "Escriba el titulo",
                minlength: "Al menos 2 caracteres",
                alphanumericwithpunc: "Sólo alfanumérico"
            }
        }
    });

And my method like:

$.validator.addMethod("alphanumericwithpunc", function(value, element) {
    return this.optional(element) || /^[\wàáâäãåèéêëìíîïòóôöõøùúûüÿýñçčšžÀÁÂÄÃÅÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÒÓÔÖÕØÙÚÛÜŸÝÑßÇŒÆČŠŽ∂ð,;.:'\\\_\-\¿?¡!&%$€#()\s]+$/i.test(value);
}, "Letters, numbers, and basic punctuation only please");

as they specified in their documentation :

Any help much appreciated!

The problem was my method, so i used like this now:

$.validator.addMethod("alphanumericwithpunc", function(value, element) {
        return this.optional(element) || /^[\wàáâäãåèéêëìíîïòóôöõøùúûüÿýñçčšžÀÁÂÄÃÅÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÒÓÔÖÕØÙÚÛÜŸÝÑßÇŒÆČŠŽ∂ð,;.:'\\\_\-\¿?¡!&%$€#()\s]+$/i.test(value);
    }, jQuery.validator.format("Please enter the correct value"));

You neglected to include the code for alphanumericwithpunc, and I'm guessing that's where the problem is. I see no issues if I get rid of that bit. See my example here. — Ryley

Use the new format, like,

messages: {
            title: {
                required: "Escriba el titulo",
                minlength: jQuery.validator.format("Al menos 2 caracteres"),
                alphanumericwithpunc: jQuery.validator.format("Sólo alfanumérico")
            }
        }

I know you get that from github.com/properapp/jquery-validation/issues/3 but as I said before, even if I set none form validation code , the error comes, which make consider the possibility this to be a bug?

I know this is probably solved by now, but thought of sharing my version of the issue and how I solved it. Please note this doesn't directly address the core issue, but only shows how to stop that error message from appearing.

I was facing the same exact problem - just included the following two libraries into my project (which already had jQuery included)

jquery.validate.js
additional-methods.js (some addons on the original validation library)

and there we go, the error popped up on the console.

I did a bit of research and found out the the code which throws the error is present in line no 1313 of the file jquery.validate.js and looks like:

$.format = function deprecated() {
  throw "$.format has been deprecated. Please use $.validator.format instead.";
};

I commented out the throw statement and the error vanished. I tested by adding some validation rules into my forms and they kept working great as usual. So, not a clean solution, but gets rid of the ugly error message.
