[Resolved] I need the numeral field to accept commas (it’s fine if it sanitizes it)

Tell us what you are trying to do?
Allow Property Agents to enter the price of properties and square footage (post type fields set to 'numeral') in regular formats. It's fine if it sanitizes the number as soon as they enter it. This will allow Agents to cut and paste more easily.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
None

Is there a similar example that we can see?
None

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

This is not possible.
The Number field will accept only numeric data.

To add other values, like dot, comma or semicolons, you need to use a single line field.

If you wish the number field to also accept other values or even let you customize with a regex what it accepts, you would need to suggest this here https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/

PS; I removed the private data (access to the site) from the post as that is a public post.
If you require to add private data you can do so when opening tickets (choose "make reply private) or require such private reply later from Support.

Thanks!

How do you mark a post as private?
I just started a new ticket to check - the option is not there

Hi Bob,

There should be an option for it if you select the option " Something is not doing what I expect it to" when creating a new ticket.

Thanks,

Shane,

I think something may be wrong with the ticketing system. When I select that option I do not get a "mark as private" option. Attaching screenshots.

Hi Bob,

You need to click on the button "I want to grant access" button.

This should provide you with the fields.

Thanks,
Shane

Hmm, I still don't see where I can mark the message as private.

Is there a way to mark a message as private without entering admin login credentials?

[Shane]

Hi Bob,

Perhaps i'm a bit confused.

You can provide private information with the credentials etc, however your first initial reply to open the ticket cannot be private.

However we as supporters can mark your next response as private, but the initial opening of the ticket cannot be private since it is a public forum.

Thanks,
Shane

Ahh, I see - no, I am the one confused 🙂 I understand now.

Thanks for you help, Shane and Beda.
