Please don’t subscribe to the plugin, after a deep meditation we decided to make those plugins free for everyone.
So please, don’t purchase it, until bubble changes the license of those plugins to free. We sent them the request.

Best regards.

I just wanted to say thanks! Your plugin has easy to use documentation and works flawlessly.

Yeah great job

Work nicely when using inputs with auto-binding too! Test below:

I’m not sure if this is possible and how time intensive it would be to implement? But it would be awesome to grab the elements value in text format when linked to an elements input e.g. When ‘Countable A’s value’

Just shooting the idea out there

Hey,

Thanks for this great tool.

How do you calculate the performance grade ?

@levon It would be great if we could get access to ‘Countable’s value’ as a possible future update? Cheers

[levon]

what’s the use of it? Why not referencing directly to the source input?

[luke2]

Purely speed really to reference the input data value, rather than using the input source itself.

For instance it could be used with regex to extract a password so its meets the password policy. When using the inputs value its very slow to register when say the password contains a number, where as using the countable plugin, it could be retrieved almost instantly.

[levon]

didn’t understand why it’s faster

How can I make this plugin work for rich input fields?

[charly]

Hello @ZeroqodeSupport, I have this item in a popup with a multiline input and a button to send a message.

I also have a button to cancel the draft and close the popup : with it, I reset the data of the popup and hide it. But if I reopen the popup, the multiline input is empty, but the countable display the old words number, even if the input is empty. I have to type new words to reset it.

Do you know this bug ?

Thank you for the response,

Charles

[levon]

Hi @Charles it’s not a bug, the state remembers its last value. you could try configuring a workflow “when popup open” with an action to “reset data of popup”, that might reset the inputs to their initial state (but the inputs should not have any initial content set in them by default)
I think you can make it with this workaround

[charly]

Hi @levon, it is what I did and it reset the data of the multiline but the text displaying the number of countable words is keeping the same value. Can I give a special number to the value of Countable element ?

Thank you !

[levon]

we’d need to add a reset action but it’s not something we can do right now due to a big backlog of tasks, sorry about that

[charly]

Ok thank you I imagine you have many tasks to do ! I will find another solution.

Have a good day !
