adding maxlength, no greater to custom profile field?
-
hello,
Any help to this would be great i’m new to buddypress and I am trying to add a custom Profile Field, a post code to be precise. I want to add a max length to the profile field and limit the number combinations so users can only input the follwoing numbers 1000 through to 1199 and two letters aa through to zz..
I’ve been searching through the bp xprofile folder but cant seem to find where the custom fields are being added from.
any help would be great and much appreciated`<option value="textbox" maxlength="4" type == ‘textbox’ ){?> selected=”selected”>`
This is what i’m tring to limit the maxlength but i cant seems to get it to work
if some one could point me towards a open ticket that explains this I would much appreciated.
Chris

No you’re at the right place
Answer from @JJJ here (since BP 1.3):
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/custom-profile-field-limit-to-5-numbers/And BP 1.6 introduces ‘multi_format’ parameter to xprofile_get_field_data(), so that themers can return comma-separated values as an option (source: BP codex)
But no idea at this time (no doc for this in codex) on how to use this in your case. Sorry.
Try to ask @modemlooper ?
