If I use this code,the navigation bar will disappear.(And,close code,it will recover.)

→In the topics：Limiting the number of words has no effect.
→In all the pages：Can limit the number of words, but the mobile navigation bar will disappear.

I don't know why.

【From https://help.forumotion.com/t121475-minimum-character-post?highlight=minimum+characters】

Code:

$(function() {
var x=document.forms['post'];
$(x.post).click(function(e) {
 if (x.message.value.length < 10) {
  e.preventDefault();
  alert('Your post must contain at least 10 character');
 }
});
});

thank you for your reply @skouliki

I try,and I find it can't count words in chinese.

Is it because Chinese belongs to Pinyin?

Even if my word count reaches the limit target (at least 5 words),【green】
Still did not count any 1 word.【red】

may i ask...is your forum language set in Chinese as well ? from the admin panel

Yes,it is in chinese set.
And,I just found out recently.
I have to switch editing mode(in Code mode),it can calculate.(Some times)
Is this normal?

Thank your reply @skouliki

Hello @Winging!

In the code find:

Code:

var regex = new RegExp('\\w{' + LetterCountPerWord + ',}\\b', 'g');

replace to:

Code:

var regex = /[^\x00-\xff]/g;
