ACF Character Count

ACF Character Count A lightweight WordPress plugin that adds live character counters to Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) text-based fields in the admin dashboard. Helps content editors stay within recommended character limits without leaving the edit screen. Features - Live character counting on text, textarea, and WYSIWYG (visual editor) fields - Works inside repeaters, groups, and flexible content at any nesting depth — counters appear automatically on dynamically added rows - Per-field character limits using ACF's built-in maxlength setting or a simple [maxchars:N] tag in field instructions - Visual warning when the character count exceeds the limit (counter turns red) - Configurable display — choose to show counters on all fields or only on fields with a limit set - Tidy placement — the counter sits to the right of the field's instruction (or label), above the input, keeping the area below the field clear - Automatic updates — your WordPress sites are notified when a new version is released - French translation included, with support for additional languages Requirements - WordPress 6.0 or higher - PHP 8.1 or higher - Advanced Custom Fields (Pro or Free) Installation 1.
