Forminator input type Number – step issues

Hi @fenixx,

Hope this message finds you well.

I imported your form into my test site but I was not able to reproduce the issue, only integer numbers work on the field:

If I manually added decimals it will return an error:

Could you share a screenshot of your form and the value you are getting?

Best regards,

Hi @fenixx

Thank you for sharing the video.

I can see the problem there but I still can’t replicate this.

Here’s how it works for me:

https://app.screencast.com/sBntJvDo0KIU1

This is the exact form that you exported for us (no changes made to it at all), imported to one of my test sites – basic setup, with just a default theme and no other plugins besides Forminator.

Since you used “Preview” mode for the video, I also tested this way and yet it behaves the way it is expected and as it should.

It seem then that the issue would be related to some sort of conflict happening on your setup (that may be with other plugin or theme or some custom code) and that needs to be identified first.

That being said:

1. you mentioned “parameter step=0.01” – where exactly do you see it? Forminator doesn’t have anything like that so I’m either missing something or it’s coming from other code on site(e.g. other plugin)

2. could you share additional information about your site’s setup? To do so, go to the “Tools -> Site Health” page -> “Info” tab in site’s back-end, click on “Copy site info to clipboard” button there and post copied data in response here (mark it as code possibly).

3. if you do have other site(s) – are you experiencing the same issue there; if you didn’t test, could you give it a try?

Kind regards,
Adam

Hi @fenixx,

So you want to move only the decimal part in the Number field with arrows? I’m afraid, by default, the plugin only supports changing the whole number or the integer using the arrows and now the decimal.

It’ll require manually entering the decimal at the moment.

Could we know what is the exact use cases where changing the decimals is vital via arrows instead of the whole numbers so that we could have a better idea regarding your workflow and check if any improvements could be looked at in future updates?

Kind Regards,

Nithin

Hi @fenixx,

Just to be sure, you are looking to change the decimal part on the arrow click in the order of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, right?

I’m checking with our developer to see if there are any workaround that’s possible regarding such a use case or whether it could be considered as a feature down the roadmap.

Will keep you posted once we get further feedback asap.

Kind Regards,

Hi @fenixx,

Please check and see whether the following helps:

<?php

add_action( 'forminator_before_form_render', 'wpmudev_number_field_form_check', 10, 5 );
function wpmudev_number_field_form_check( $id, $form_type, $post_id, $form_fields, $form_settings ) {
	if ( 508 == $id ) { // Please change the form ID.
		add_action( 'forminator_field_number_markup', 'wpmudev_number_field_min_max_fraction', 10, 5 );
	}
}

function wpmudev_number_field_min_max_fraction( $html, $id, $required, $placeholder, $value ) {
    if ( false !== strpos( $id, 'number-1') ) { // Please change the number field ID.
        $html = str_replace('step="any"', 'step="0.01"', $html);

    }
    return $html;
}

In the snippet, you’ll need to make sure to update the reference of 508 in the code with your form ID, suppose your form ID is 123 then the following line will change from:

if ( 508 == $id ) { 

To:

if ( 508 == $id ) {

The number-1 in the code will refer to your Number field ID, you’ll need to update it according to your field ID.

You can add the code via mu-plugins. Please check this link on how to implement the above code as a mu-plugins:

Please do note that the code will only change the decimal part via arrow as seen in the screenshot:
