KiCad PWR_FLAG question

[yaron0262]

Greetings!
I'm looking for some help with a simple ERC issue that I haven't been able to resolve despite searching online.
In the first image, you can see that I'm attempting to supply power to the circuit through two resistors, R7 and R8.
However, during the ERC check, KiCad doesn't seem to recognize the power supply path—likely because of the resistors between the power source and the rest of the circuit.

In the second image, I've removed R7 and R8, and the ERC passes without any issues. Still, I would prefer to keep R7 and R8 in the design, as they're an important part of the circuit.

Does anyone know how I can resolve this while keeping the resistors in place?
Thanks in advance!

Just connect a +5V power supply symbol to the pwr_flag connected to the R7 and connect a -5V power supply symbol to the pwr_flag connected to the R8.

"PWR_FLAG" is used so Kicad knows it is a power source when it checks for cross connected inputs and outputs. What you need to do is add labels to the nodes after the resistors and use the node name everywhere they are used. For example call them "+5V_Filtered" and "-5V_Filtered"

Just connect a +5V power supply symbol to the pwr_flag connected to the R7 and connect a -5V power supply symbol to the pwr_flag connected to the R8.

In addition to this, change the name of your global labels from +5V and -5V to different names, just like betwixt has pointed out, so they do not connect to the +5V and -5V power supply symbols and short out R7 and R8. This is because a global symbol with name being the same as the value of a power supply symbol connects to the power supply symbol as one and the same net. And then, you will need another pwr_flag, one each, after R7 and R8.
