Tell us what you are trying to do?
Trying to add currency field to a number field.

The example I followed worked except Im not sure what to replace in the example short code:
[format-currency num='types-shortcode here' sym='$']

My Post type is lm-event-calendar
and the field is event-cost

Im using Elementor for the layout so Im using a shortcode widget to insert the example shortcode above

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hi Waldo,

I did this;

Add this to your custom code in Toolset Settings (Screenshot 1)

function format_money( $atts ) {
    extract( shortcode_atts( array(
        'price' => '0'), $atts) );
    return $price = number_format($price, 2, '.', ',');
}
add_shortcode('format_money', 'format_money');

Use this shortcode for the output within a text editor within Elementor; (Screenshot 2+3)

£[format_money price=[types field='price' output='raw'][/types]][/format_money]

I hope this helps
