Problem: I have a Form that includes a custom taxonomy input field along with the option to add a new term, "+ Add New". After updating to the new drag-and-drop Form builder and moving the field around, there are two "+ Add New" buttons next to the term input field.

Solution: Update to Forms 2.3.2 to receive the fix for this issue. After updating please find and edit the Form in wp-admin. Delete the taxonomy field, then use the drag-and-drop editor to replace the field in the Form body.

Problem:

The issue here is that the user wanted to limit the amount of characters in their form field.

Solution:

This can be done by using the code in the example below.

jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
  $('[name^=post_excerpt]').attr('maxlength',280);
});
 
( function( $ ) {
    $( document ).ready( function(){
  
        // insert div to display char count
        $('textarea[name="post_excerpt"]').after("<div class='char-count'>0</div>");
  
        // listen for keyup and update the count
        $('textarea[name="post_excerpt"]').keyup( function(){ 
  
            var chars = $('textarea[name="post_excerpt"]').val().length;
  
            $('.char-count').html( chars );
        });
    });
})( jQuery );

To display the counter you will need to add a p tag to your form with the class "char-count"
