Customizable Field Validation
developed (for 10.2)
Manuel Lindorfer
It should be possible to customize the validation applied to input fields using regular expressions. In this manner, it will be possible to restrict the user input for certain fields to a certain length or format, for example. This regular expression should be configurable via the project forms and global forms modules, respectively.

Set maximum character length in custom text fields

I would like to have the ability to specify a maximum character length in custom text fields. This feature would help prevent incorrect entries by limiting the input to a specific number of characters, such as 8.

Forms: Adding a format check to text fields
F
Farah Eissa
For example, we have a field where we always request our users a format of 00-000, but users sometimes disregard the agreed format.
I would like the system to check this format, so users cannot enter 00 - 000 or any other difference.

With version 10.2, it will be possible to add custom field validation to text fields using regular expressions. By doing so, it will also be possible to define e.g. a minimum or maximum number of characters or a specific input pattern, using an appropriate expression. Please note that there will not be an explicit setting for the maximum number of characters in the project and global forms modules, respectively.
