but this does not work in the form.
is there a solution?
The output of the form: hidden link
and: hidden link
Form: hidden link
The meaning of this field is that I like to have 1 textfield. But with a normal textfield I can't make an excerpt. With an excerpt I can limit the lenght for the post and for the table.
In order to restrict the characters in your excerpt section we will need to do this with some custom code since it is not supported by wordpress nor our CRED plugin.
Add the following to the js editor on your cred form.
To add the post excerpt field go to "Add Post fields" button on your Cred form edit page then select "Standard Post Fields" here you will be able to see the button for your post excerpt field.
I believe the reason why this isn't showing up is because when creating a new CPT in types the excerpt section is disabled by default 🙁
You will need to enable it by going to Types -> Post Type and then scroll down to "Custom Post Properties" and then enable the excerpt section by clicking the checkbox and then hit save.
I checked on the issue and noticed the field has already been enabled like you said. I was also able to see the button to add the excerpt shortcode to your form.
I also attached a screenshot of the excerpt section already in use.
