gives

Client-id : firstname is duplicated in the faces tree. Component : firstname, path: {Component-Path : [Class: javax.faces.component.UIViewRoot,ViewId: /pages/user/userRegistration.xhtml][Class: org.jboss.seam.ui.UIValidateAll,Id: _id20][Class: org.jboss.seam.ui.UIDecorate,Id: _id24][Class: org.jboss.seam.ui.UIFragment,Id: _id26][Class: javax.faces.component.html.HtmlInputText,Id: firstname]}

the error should be ralted to whichever "firstname" component is rendered (they are mutually exclusive)...

Any ideas?

This is how the code is called...

<ui:param name="usedForFilter" value="false" />

switches the usage mode...

 <!-- Validation and not being used for Filter -->
 <s:validateAll>
 <ui:include src="/WEB-INF/pages/user/userFieldsEditable.xhtml">
 <ui:param name="usedForFilter" value="false" />
 </ui:include>
 </s:validateAll>

I guess I wil ahev to have a page for each type filteres and non filtered :(

Rendered doesn't cause the component not to be created, just not displayed hence your id conflict!
