Text Target Length for Silverstripe CMS
If you see a field marked 'Description' you know roughly what type of content to put in there. But how do you know how much of it to write? A single sentence might do, but maybe a paragraph or more is required? A great content plan should recommend an ideal length for every type of content, so content authors and designers alike can make informed decisions.
This module extends the TextField
, TextareaField
and HTMLEditorField
classes in Silverstripe to allow you to set a recommended content length, and set soft upper and lower limits on character count.
Requirements
Silverstripe 4|5 (3.1+ in previous releases)
Installation
How to use
With the module installed you can call call setTargetLength()
on TextField
, TextareaField
and HTMLEditorField
form fields.
Customise hint text
This module supports translation through yml, so if you want to change the hint text that is displayed when users are typing, just create your own language file to override the one included in the module.
Front-end use
If you want to use this module outside of the CMS, you will need to load a copy of jQuery and jQuery Entwine in to the page. Example:
