[Resolved] Custom Field Numeric Min/Max Range

When creating a new Numeric Field, I'm trying to find a way to only allow a specific range into the field. For example one of my numeric fields can only have a range of 0 to 5. I see the option to hide the display with conditions, but I don't see any place where I can prevent numeric inputs from a specific range?

Thanks~

Hi there,

Thanks for your contact.

Just to make sure, are you trying to set this min and max range for a numeric field in the backend or in the frontend?

In the backend I'm afraid we would have to apply some code customization, but in the frontend it is possible to do a condition like this, for instance: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/filter-by-a-range-between-2-values-minimun-maximun/#post-915135

Please let us know this info, so that we can check better the options we'd have for it. Thank you.

Kind regards,
Mateus.

Hey Mateus,

Thanks for the quick response! Yeah I need code for the backend in the wp-admin on a repeating group numeric input field. My admins occasionally enter in wrong values from other fields so I need to make sure I can validate their input. Can you provide me with some backend code?

Thanks

Hello there,

Thank you for the clarifications.

There is no easy solution when working in the back end, I'm afraid. It'd be needed to add a PHP that would enqueue a JavaScript only on the relevant pages, and that JavaScript would modify the relevant inputs, perhaps changing the input type to number and adding min and max attributes. For instance: hidden link.

At this point - and since code customization is beyond of the scope of this support forum, the adequate approach is to consult with one of your certified partners-developers, please take a look here: https://toolset.com/contractors/

Note: the possible solution provided is to be used just as an informational one. Please remember that custom coding is out of the scope of our support, so we can't create, debug or modify code for you and it's your responsibility to maintain it. We hope the one we used as an example could point you in the right direction. Please check our support policy: https://toolset.com/toolset-support-policy/

Thanks for your understanding. If you need anything else don't hesitate to contact us.

Thanks for the feedback!

I'll take a look at that link and see if I can come up with a custom solution. It does look like your competition provides this out of the box...
hidden link

Maybe this is something your development team can look at in the future?

Cheers~
