You would use the gform_validation filter: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_validation</a></p> <p>You could also just silently truncate the length of the title using the gform_pre_submission_filter: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_pre_submission_filter" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_pre_submission_filter</a></p> <p>Read the value that was submitted and trim it to the length you desire. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-limit-title-length-for-user-post-title-field#post-87102 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 18:23:43 +0000 zhanliusc 87102@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Now that I can't use the Limit Post Title to X Characters plugin ( see <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/unable-to-edit-forms#post-87101" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/unable-to-edit-forms#post-87101</a> ), is there a way within Gravity Forms to limit the title length (characters) in user post forms? Specifically the "Title field"?<br /> thanks </p>
