Magic Numbers and more control over displayed data.

    While being happy with this plugin (and leagueManager too) I found two issues I’d like to give you as a feedback:

    1. If data of a “textfield” or “tinymce” type field is long and you dont want to “show_all” data, then the field content is stripped to 100 chars. It’s a magic number in core.php near line 1400 that should be an option as for my use case I don’t want that limit.

    2. However, “show_all” doesn’t fit my use case either as I have some “private” data that should not be displayed on the public part of my webpage. So, similar to the “startpage” and “profile” option it would be great to have a “display” option to hve full control over the data being displayed.

    But beside these 2 little problems I am very happy with your plugin. THank you very much to keep it up to date also. ??

    Thanks for your feedback. I have extended the formfield functionalities in the latest releases (3.1.7.5)

    1. it is possible to specify the number of characters after which the content will be cut using the Options field in the format limit:XX. Separate any options by ;

    2. you can mark formfields as private, which prevents display in the frontend

    I have included a few more options to the formfields:

    * set a field as mandatory to force data input
    * set a field as unique to prevent duplicate values (e.g. email)
    * added validity check to email adresses if formfield type is email
    * set a maximum number of allowed characters in the format max:XX using the Options field
