How can I format a custom field (number) in a page?
Example: Value 12345.6, Output € 12,345.60

Is there a syntax for the "Format" option (see picture)?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You will require to write the custom shortcode that should return the formatted number as per your requirement.

For example:
- You can add the following shortcode to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/

function display_number_in_format( $atts ) {

  $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
    'field' => ''
  ), $atts );
    $value = number_format($field, 2, ',', '.');
    return $value;
}
 add_shortcode('show-formatted-number', 'display_number_in_format');

And you can use the above shortcode by adding the shortcode block or "Fields and Text" block as:

[show-formatted-number field="[types field='preis' format='FIELD_VALUE'][/types]"]

Where:
- Please change the "preis" field value if required and adjust with your original field value.
