Hi There,

I was wondering if it's possible to add a max character limit to either of these custom fields:

- WYSIWYG
- Multiple Line

Can it show something similar to what you have in your support request form? I'd like to be able to show how many characters are left.

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset Forms or Toolset Types plugins, you might consider custom codes, for example:

For your reference.
