But we are going to look into it and see if we can add it to the next beta release of Gravity Forms 1.4 that is in development. We just released Beta 1 and are working on Beta 2 to fix some issues. We will see if we can work this in. It will be an advanced option on the Single Line Text field. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/password-field-how-to-hide-password-password-becomes#post-8415 Wed, 11 Aug 2010 10:14:53 +0000 David 8415@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>HI,<br /> 1) How can I set up a form so that a text field I am using for a password field will hide the characters when they typed (e.g. "password" becomes "********"). </p> <p>2) In an existing form, if I change my text field to use the above method, will it break the connection to existing backend functions?</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p><a href="http://myfoursquare.net/getitnow" rel="nofollow">http://myfoursquare.net/getitnow</a> </p>
